out tonight

Portland, come as you are

Portland's nights are casual and close to home. Instead of one big party district, the city has neighborhood main streets on both sides of the Willamette, each with brewpubs, food carts, dive bars and small music rooms. Nobody dresses up, and a light rain has never canceled anything.

The local habit is the soft maybe: "let's play it by ear," "maybe after the food carts," "I'll see how I feel." YesTonite is for the nights you do feel like it: see who else is out tonight, send one message, and meet on Alberta or Division without making it a whole thing.

Thursday to Saturday are the main nights, and summer brings outdoor seating everywhere. Oregon bars can serve until 2:30 a.m.

Where Portland goes out

  • Pearl DistrictFormer warehouses with cocktail bars, restaurants and galleries.
  • Alberta Arts DistrictNortheast's colorful strip of bars and cafes, busiest on Last Thursday in summer.
  • Hawthorne & DivisionSoutheast streets packed with brewpubs, food carts and late bars.
  • Mississippi AvenueNorth Portland's small bars, music venues and patios.
  • Old Town ChinatownDowntown's densest cluster of clubs and dance floors.

How it works: three steps.

  1. Say you're out

    Switch on "out tonight" and you get a green dot. It turns off by itself in the morning.

  2. Send one message

    See a photo and an age, say something, and the chat opens for both of you. No matching first.

  3. Meet tonight

    Pick a place, or join an event nearby. Same evening, not three weeks of small talk.

Events anyone can host

Anyone 18+ can host an event on YesTonite: a Forest Park hike, a food cart crawl, a vinyl night, a brewery bike ride on a dry Sunday. Join open events right away; for closed ones you request a spot, and the address unlocks only for guests who are in.

For local creators and venues

Portland creators, music and food pages, bars, brewpubs and event organizers: share your personal YesTonite link and earn a fixed amount for every new customer who joins through it, paid out monthly.

Is YesTonite new in Portland?

Yes. Portland is new for us, so it's early days. Every profile is a real member; we never make up people or numbers.

What if I'm a maybe until 9 p.m.?

That's fine. Switch on "out tonight" whenever you decide, see who's still heading out, and pick a place. Meet somewhere public and lively, like a busy brewpub on Division or a bar on Alberta.

Signing up, a profile with up to 12 photos, browsing, a number of new chats per day and every reply are free. Extras are optional.
