Migration Brewing - Glisan on Postcard

"Migration opened its doors on Glisan back in 2010 and built a solid following with locals in the area. In 2018 it began an aggressive expansion campaign that has now seen the brewery explode into four locations throughout the city, one of which features a rooftop bar. Its flagship, Straight Outta Portland IPA, is one of the top westies (West Coast IPAs) in the city. Migration doesn’t seem like it’s out to reinvent the wheel, here; producing top-tier West Coast and Hazy IPAs is the main goal, but some kettle sours and its award-winning northwest-style red ale help to round out the portfolio." - Ron Scott

"Beer on the Move Finding great beer is rarely about the destination and more about the journey. There are no shortage of trails to take you on beer expeditions in Portland , with Migration taking its place among the best. Locally sourced, owned, operated and distributed, the beers coming out of this brewery are broad and balanced. The brewers embrace the importance of innovation, while staying true to styles that span centuries. The beer menu is all Migration, all the time, with seasonal and special batches breaking into the lineup on a regular basis. The IPAs are hoppy and the stouts are, well, stout. Keep track of your alcohol content (always posted along with bitterness values) if you plan on operating machinery after a couple rounds. Some styles creep up into the double-digit range. You'd swear the folks serving the beer are the ones making it, based on their knowledge and expertise in pairing your taste to their brews. The other benefit is a great pub menu with something for everyone. Try the pulled pork nachos or hypocrite burger to give your cold one something to wash down. The pet-friendly patio seating is lively rain or shine and the beers are on sale during televised local sports team events. Plenty of onsite bike parking, too, if you decide to two-wheel it in."

I slipped into Migration Brewing for a quick bite and beer with no expectations (other than knowing they have some really good beers). I was blown away by how delicious their food is! We tried several of the crunchwraps, and loved them. There was also ample seating for everyone, even with the trivia and several large parties that were there!

I had an amazing experience. First to begin. I was planning to go to Chapman school to watch the Swifts nest. I read in the paper that they were visible from Migration Brewery on Glisan. Not sure if I got confused or the news mentioned the rooftop bar (which is at the location by Providence Park but not at Glisan). So expecting to go watch the Swifts and expecting crowds I arrived way early but on time to get matched up with the blonde gentleman who gave me really good information about the Swifts, where to see them, and helped me set realistic expectations. Since I had time before they were due, I enjoyed an amazing coffee stout or two and a custom crunch wrap. I had fully expected to be somewhere else for happy hour but this was the right choice. I don't drink very often but the stout was so good and I had time that I decided another one was in order. Not sure if I would see the swifts, I definitely did. And I can't wait to return.

Migration Brewing was very kid friendly eatery after going to the historic Belmont firehouse for the day with our class. The food options were plentiful, the service to the table was nice. We did get there around 5:00-5:15 on a Saturday, which seemed to beat the rush by 30 minutes, which was perfect. We’ll be back for sure!

It is a solid place to come for some good food and a chill atmosphere. They have a good outside patio and a spacious interior. You order from the counter and will get your food and beverage from a server. The service was pretty quick and friendly. Their burger special was one of the better ones in town. The shoestring fries here are also solid.

Great location to grab a beer, sit outside, and enjoy the sunshine or rain :) Had the Impossible Burger on this visit and bravo to the Staff on it's preparation. The burger bleeds and tastes like beef but it's not. I could seriously consider cutting back on beef intake if more places offered this product on their menu.

Fantastic spot for good beer and solid bar food, with lots of space indoors and a big patio. The patio can get hot in the warmer months as it’s all concrete. Beer is well priced and they have a constant rotation of new items brewed at this location and from their main brewing facility. Great specials during Timbers and Blazers games too!

Came here for a queer market so that's rad. But like what's with these bathrooms. Where do disabled men go? Just make them gender neutral 🤦🏻🤦🏻 Update: The attached photo, they have man and woman signs, so it is confusing. If they are both gender neutral I would just suggest updating your signage.

Doesn’t even deserve one star. Beer is tasty I get it from Safeway all the time, so I figured the brewery would be just as good. First time visiting and definitely my last. Food was comparable to a TV dinner. Salad saturated in dressing that I couldn’t even consume it. And the portion size of beans and rice were pitiful on the comfort bowl; in addition we added chicken that was hardly seen totaling that one item to $14 (worth $6 at most). Mind you the beers were forgotten so the lady made them complimentary. A self serve establishment with prices of a full service restaurant. Paid $39 for a stomach ache. If you choose to visit I recommend the beers only! Don’t waste your money on the food. And p.s. don’t forget to buss your own table and clear your plates of discarded food in the trash bin before leaving. Worst experience in a long time!
