The Doubletree Hotel Portland is pleased to announce the grand opening of Gather Food & Drink. In Portland’s newest dining spot, guests will taste the freshest flavors of the Northwest, and enjoy a warm and inviting gathering space to sip, sample and socialize. Inspired seasonal fare is the focus of the restaurant and bar, and the location and free parking also make this a perfect place to meet for beverages before or after events at the Rose Garden.
Gather is about offering selections that reflect the changing array of food and drink that is produced locally. Chef Steven Ward infuses the freshest ingredients from local farmers and showcases them in seasonal menus. Those culinary delights serve as a great complement to the regionally inspired wine, beer and spirits offered in Gather.
“We’re very excited to offer our guests a unique and inviting dining experience where they will truly enjoy distinct regional flavors,” explains Steve Faulstick, general manager of the Doubletree Hotel Portland. “Gather is a unique meeting place for those who live and work in the neighborhood, and a natural extension of the sustainable renovations and contemporary influence injected into the property.”
Gather is a dramatic transformation for the hotel. It features a chic new cocktail bar overlooking a combination of bistro tables, cocktail vignettes and soft, comfortable seating accented by a warm and inviting fireplace. Private dining space is also available.
The design concept is from Portland-based IDEA (Innovative Designed Environment Associates), who specialize in beautiful and sustainable spaces for both commercial and residential venues. Like much of the hotel, Gather uses sustainable materials such as fabrics made with 100% recycled content and tables made from Pacific Northwest native wood, sourced from a local orchard. Most appropriately, the pillars are paneled with rehabilitated floorboards from the Jim Beam distillery.
Gather is now accepting reservations for lunch, dinner, and cocktail hour at 1000 NE Multnomah in Portland, and is open weekdays from 11 am – 12:30 am, and on weekends from 5 pm – 12:30 am. For more information, please call 503-331-4943, or visit our website at www.gatherportland.com.
The Doubletree Hotel Portland is located just blocks from the LEED certified Oregon Convention Center, the Rose Garden Arena, and Memorial Coliseum. Guests can utilize door-to-door service on the MAX light rail system from the airport and downtown Portland.
