"This brick-walled cocktail bar on Southeast Grand hosts everything from drag brunches to Indie dance parties, as well as local acts like Moth Kit and Earthware. Gnarlys handles the food, with vegan burgers, loaded fries, and “milk” shakes. Check out the full lineup and buy tickets online." - Jenni Moore, Eater Staff
"The Diva Drag Brunch has found a home at Swan Dive. The weekly event features drag queens like Lylac and Jayla Rose Sullivan." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Southeast Grand’s Swan Dive is primarily known for its live music, but Thursday is karaoke night with roaming Portland KJ Jessicon. Sign-up starts at 9 p.m., with vegan food from Gnarly’s and no cover for those who want to drop in." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Nacheaux, based within the Southeast Portland bar Swan Dive, has served fried-chicken-stuffed 'Crunch Wraps' since it opened its cart in March 2020." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Nacheaux is taking over the kitchen at the relatively new cocktail bar Swan Dive, before reopening the cart in a new Southeast Portland food cart pod. Swan Dive took over the Bit House Collective space in the spring, furthering some of the changes made to Bit House over the last few years — the bar hosts drag brunches, tribute nights, and themed parties, renting out its kitchen for short-term residencies." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
