Bagdad Theater and Pub


The Bagdad Theater and Pub is an installment of McMenamin's, located on Hawthorne St. It's a quick jaunt from the Hawthorne Theater, Imelda's Shoes, and Fred Meyer.

With a store front full of windows, the Bagdad opens its walls, tempting the summer breeze as its patrons enjoy some fresh air, inside and out. A cheery bar sits in the midst of all the fuss, providing the denizens of the Hawthorne thoroughfare with McMenamin's faithful microbrews.

Hands down, the best thing on PDX Glutton's menu today was the Ginger Mushroom Soup. It's not often that you run into a soup that simply delicious - just mushrooms, broth, and ginger spice. It literally made my mouth water -- and that never happens!

Also quite good was my little pizza: the Mediterranean Chicken. Garlic-roasted chicken, tomatos, garlic, kalamata olives, and fresh basil.

That's Dad's Ruby ale in the background -- I had an iced coffee (hey, I had to work at 2!)

Mediterranean Chicken Pizza: 9 (mini)
