Sassy’s Bar & Grill

One of the best if not the best strip club in Portland. Don’t be dismayed as it is somewhat «Portlandia» …it’s not fake with superficial strippers plus no cover charge. the chicks are hot. The drinks and beer are reasonably priced. I’ve met some of the best strippers in Portland at Sassys! And that says a lot with the abundance of strip clubs in the city. Saber and Zoe are favorites!

The fck is everyone talking about? This place is bomb. The girls are beautiful, the drinks are cheap, service is good, music is fun, and no cover! Yah the tables are cheap and wobbly but who the fuck gives a shit? Byeee

Don’t trust a man with a neck tattoo to run your door. We had a group of five chicks in wonderful moods looking forward to go to a strip club at the tail end of a great weekend in Portland. As we were checking in to Sassy’s with a nice bouncer, an obscure man with a neck tattoo that spread into his head and a mean face came out to tell us all we couldn’t come in. Bouncer 101 is generally if five good looking chicks in great moods come in to spend money and power up your dance floor, you let them in, but the only thing bigger than this mans head was his ego. He said to me, «I know it’s your birthday, but…» And proceeded to explain that it wasn’t cause we were drunk, but because we had drank a beer in the parking lot we weren’t allowed in. I didn’t realize fun was outlawed in Portland. Shame on this guy for his facial display choices, but mostly for his attitude. What a twat. Luckily, we moved on and brought the entire line of 15+ people with us. Guy needs a new profession, more in line with a pimp. Clearly only depressed middle aged men are allowed in strip clubs in a perfect face tat world.

The bouncer wouldn’t accept my out of state ID. I am well of age but because it was a foreign ID to him he wouldn’t accept it. Please educate your door men on all forms of ID.

Don’t get your panties in a bunch because I’m a woman reviewer. I’ve seen a fair amount of strip clubs and this one in particular I’ve been to quite a few times. It’s very, meh, I go to it because it’s convenient at the time and I want a cheap drink. The tables are wobbly, the lighting is bizarre, the layout of the club with the poles is random at best and the private dance room is like totally visible. The waitress looked like she didn’t even work there, she looked like she should be working in a Starbucks but she was quick to bring the drinks! I always see it busy so it obviously isn’t horrible but it’s nothing to write home about. I guess it’s just a good place to make your last stop after a night on the town, if you happen to be in the neighborhood.

I am astonished by how we were treated at Sassy’s tonight. Being a Portland Native I enjoy having friends and family in town. Our cousin from Venezuela was here tonight and was kicked out of the bar. He has never been to a strip club in America and tried to take a selfie of us near the bathroom. We were told no photos and moved on with our night. We noticed security watching us from that instance and decided to move to the opposite side of the bar. We were literally stripped from our chairs and told that they needed to be at the stage, when the particular stage we were at had no one by it. Once the guard moved one chair he claimed every other chair in the area was supposed to be by the stage… note… the other two tables near by got chairs stripped from them at our expense. No chairs at any table near by. We then got kicked out and our friend from Venezuela who stayed by another stage was kicked out for being with us. Never experienced such bullshit.

WATCH your drinks and never leave them alone.
I have female friends who have had similar experiences.
Sounds like a great place for ruffies… Ehh Paul?

Came in on our last night of our trip to Portland, as 3 girls from California, Sassy’s has some of the sweetest girls you’ll meet. They all absolutely killed it, in every way possible. Beautiful tattoos, beautiful bodies and beautiful personalities. Definitely a must if your in town! Going to tell all the hippies back home about these rad ladies.

Coming from California, I can’t be anything but stoked about no cover, full bar, food, AND girls covered in tattoos.
Can’t wait to come back.

That emotivated me to make Unilocaling a habit that I am able to Unilocal review about a strip club. Haha, love my friends!
Anywho I’m feeling buzzed after my first beer and my first dance by a cute girl that looks like my friend. Okay so the girls here are hot and talented, very good and feeling, and moving sexy. Pole dancing well done. Service and Portland strip club vibe on point.
Great experience for my first Portlander initiation. I like it!

Was expecting steak, Mac n cheese, and high energy, received mushed chicken tenders, previously frozen French fries, and a naked serene yoga stretching session.
The ESPN-​esque announcer had more passion and energy in his voice than the dancers had in their faces.

It was my friends first time at a strip club and it was really positive!
1. No cover! On a Saturday night. So awesome.
2. $ 1 mandatory tip per song if you sit at the counter

A man with face tattoos ruined me and my group’s night. I was very much sober with my friend and her boyfriend and we were kicked out of the club for a mistaken identity. This man thought my friend was too drunk when we were very much sober. He thought she was someone else and kicked us out after about 5 minutes of being there for ordering a water.
I have never had a negative experience at Sassy’s until this time and was extremely upset with the misunderstanding. The man is irrational and power hungry. My friend left crying and very confused. I will never go to Sassy’s again as long as this man is working there. It was a very upsetting experience. And I am very much disappointed.

Sassy’s embodies it’s name. It’s a sassy little joint that fully embraces what it is. Which is a small laid back bar with great drinks and pretty ladies on stage. Drinks are competitively priced, the ladies are quirky, smoking hot, and all around it’s a great vibe. Atmosphere is fun and light, drinks are stiff, and the crowd is a good mix of men and women all looking to chill and have a good time. Great place just to grab a drink and see some eye candy or take a large group to cut loose. Nothing but fun at Sassy’s.

Besides our waitress, people working there were rude. You get yelled at for dancing with your friends and beers snatched out of your hands. The strippers also seemed bored and uninspired. Much better dancers at Devils point and they actually interact with people.

Oh, Sassy’s.
I take all my visiting friends here. Sassy’s is a totally chill dive bar that just happens to have some dancing naked ladies. I kind of go here just as a dive bar, which tends to not make the strippers very happy. Sorry I’m not paying any attention to you and am engrossed in my group, ladies! Keep up the good work, you’re excellent background entertainment. Like, a Netflix show that keeps going to the next episode.
Table service is very friendly and saves you from having to navigate the crowded bar (which stresses out the bartenders anyway). And if you do decide to sit yourself at a «station,» the strippers can be entertaining. They can also be kind of crappy to women. The other night I ended up here and one of the strippers told a girl in my group she wasn’t tipping enough and wasn’t «that hot» so she had to leave. WHOA WHOA WHOA. Sassy’s indeed.
Sassy’s is also home to the scariest looking guy-​who-​will-​kick-​you-​out-​if-​you-​piss-​off-​the-​strippers. He’s like a metal version of the guy from Pan’s Labyrinth with the eyes in his hand. So hey– don’t piss off the strippers or this guy will like rip your skin off à la Silent Hill.
Sassy’s is a Portland must, FYI. So check it out at least once.

This is by far my favorite strip club. I have no clue how this calculates but the girls are just right, the music is just right, the service is great, i just always have a good experience and a good time. It’s that edge of comfortable and badass that i crave after a couple drinks. Check it.

My friend Leslie really likes this place. She talked it up, so I was pretty psyched to check it out. So — let me set the scene. It’s my roommate’s last night in Portland before going back to Boringville (I think that’s the name of the town). We go to crush first for drinks and dancing. We consider karaōke… but there’s nothing we like close enough (and yes, Unilocal was consulted at this point). Someone brings up Sassy’s and Joseph says he’s never been to a strip club before. Done! Let me be the cougar that poisons his young mind.
Parking wasn’t a problem. The place itself is oddly manned by someone who looks pretty tough. Was there military gear involved? Drinks are average (in price and make-​up). The two stages are right next to each other — it feels crowded. The chairs are not even remotely comfortable. You have to sit WAY down low. it’s odd.
The girls are just fine. One was friendly. They all dance fairly well. But here’s the thing. Being the asshole I am, I pointed out that it was Joseph’s 1^st time. So they all paid him some attention. But they also put their junk in his face, an he was clearly and visibly uncomfortable with this. Ummm… I may not be able to expect decorum, but a good dancer knows/​senses what her customer wants!
As for me, well they happily scooped up my dollar, and the dollars of everyone else near me, but paid virtually no attention to us. No brief encounter, brush, tittilation, no matter how mild…
So all in all, this is my least favorite strip club in Portland so far. So sad, but so it goes.

I’m originally from St Louis. Going to a club like Sassy’s in the STL area means you’re going to pay $ 15 or more for entry, and like $ 9 or more for a drink. The quality of the show is not that great either. And getting food is completely out of thr question.
Sassy’s is a great example of pdx doing something very well. There’s no cover. The drinks are priced normally. You can order food. The performers are nice to look at.
On the topic of drink here, there is beer. And lots of it. Like 12 – 15 taps or so i’d guess in addition to a selection of cans and bottles. A selection befitting of a place i would like to have a beer at in Portland. There’s a full a bar as well, so in the event your out of town buddy wants to do jaeger bombs, the bartenders can accomodate.
Food. The menu used to be a bit bigger i think. Nevertheless, you can still get standard bar fare late into the night. Fries, tater tots, chicken strips, etc. if you ‘end up’ at sassy’s on a given night and you’re hungry, you probably don’t need to be spending your money on something fancier than what they offer anyway. And to be clear, i had the chicken strips and they are pretty decent. The crust is passable and they are fairly meaty. You know you aren’t eating a frozen Tyson chicken strip.
The girls. Pretty good looking. Some better than others. Never seen a really really good looking girl here, but this isn’t the type of place you see one of those doing this job. Pancake butt runs rampant here some nights.

This was my first strip club experience. Based on Unilocal’s 3 and a half star rating (and the «smells like herpes» comment somewhere below), I was a tad hesitant to go to Sassy’s, but my friend Ellen is a bad influence, and so is a long day of craft beer drinking.
Turns out I had nothing to fear other than keeping the singles flowing while the girls did splits, handstands and upside-​down stuff, twirling around poles like naked ninjas. Seriously, if gymnastics looked like this I would pay way more attention to the Olympics.
A couple notes:
— The bar pours extremely stiff drinks (har har)
— There are three stages with rotating dancers. My favorite’s name was Diamond.
— You’re supposed to tip $ 1 per song if you sit by a stage. Don’t be that guy. Do it.
— A lap dance costs $ 25 (I learned this the way you would imagine)
— The music here is awesome. Beck, Coldwar Kids, David Bowie? Yes please.
— There’s an outside patio if you want to smoke or take a break from all the vanilla-​scented body lotion
Should I ever find myself back in PDX, I would love to make a return trip to this wonderland of flexibility. Thanks for being gentle during my first time, Sassy’s.
