First and foremost we're a family-friendly neighborhood brewery, taproom, and restaurant. If you're just looking to come in for dinner or drinks, you'll find a welcoming brewpub atmosphere in a lightly themed fantasy tavern with great food and well-crafted beer. But for those who are interesting in tabletop gaming, we have full-time Game Masters trained to run games across a variety of different rulesets for you and your friends. We accommodate all experience levels, groups of different sizes, and anything from single sessions up to multiyear campaigns.
For the non-gamers out there, the best way to think about it is as a place where the weekly events are focused on tabletop roleplaying instead of karaoke or trivia. We'd love for you to be part of the adventure, but you will have a great time even if that's not your thing!
We've partnered with En Vida PDX to provide all of our food, which is fare from South America and makes use of our beautiful wood burning oven. They have a fully equipped kitchen in our space in addition to the brick oven and have your food needs covered from opening to close. As such, we do not allow outside food.
You can find their full food menu here.
We're a block from the SE 50th Ave. & Hawthorne Blvd. stop of the TriMet 14-Hawthorne/Foster bus route, which would be our recommendation for anyone looking to come by for a drink!
For those biking over, we have covered outdoor bike racks on the west side of our building and uncovered outdoor racks directly out front on Hawthorne Blvd.
If you're driving in for a game, Hawthorne Blvd. has plenty of free street parking throughout the day but may require a block or two walk depending on other events going on in the neighborhood.
Despite TPK Brewing Co. and En Vida PDX operating as two separate businesses, we do share a single point of sale system to simplify the ordering experience. You can order anything from our combined menu at the main downstairs bar or (when open) at the upstairs bar. Both bars have digital menus available on wall mounted TVs, in addition to having paper menus available at both bars. You can also find a digital version of our drink list here and food menu here.
Your drinks will generally be prepared at the bar you ordered from while you wait, while your food order will be delivered to your table by the kitchen staff.
We do not offer table service, but our tables do have QR codes that allow you to access the same menu and order/pay from your phone. Drinks and food ordered this way will be delivered to your table to minimize interruptions to any in progress gaming.
Our beer is generally served in 16 oz glasses, but we do have 9 oz glasses available for certain styles or half pours. We also offer flights to try four of our beers at a time. You can find our beer list here.
We do ask that you please bus your own tables when you are finished and bus stations can be found in the downstairs seating area, upstairs seating area, and near the private gaming space.
The easiest way to book gaming is using our online scheduling system here, but staff at either bar can walk you through how it all works or directly assist in the scheduling if you would like.
Our front entrance on SE Hawthorne Boulevard and our side entrance on SE 51st Avenue are both wheelchair accessible. Our mezzanine is not wheelchair accessible, but our gaming services, food and beverage options, retail products, events, and restroom are available on our main (first) floor.
If you have any accessibility needs that we should be aware of for a booked session, please let us know during the booking process and we'll be sure to have everything ready for your visit.
We offer gift cards either in person, over the phone at (503) 231-6354, or online here. They can be used for anything we offer (food, beverages, merch, or game bookings), but cannot be entered into our website directly. To use a gift card for a website booking, please either email your booking specifics to info@tpkbrewing.com or give us a call at the number above.
