Description and history
_-_03.jpg)
Owner Elise Schumock started the bookstore and bar Rose City Book Pub in 2018, with 7,000–8,000 used books available for sale. She opened the business on Fremont Street in northeast Portland's Sabin neighborhood, in a space which had previously housed County Cork.[1][2] Some funds were raised via Indiegogo.[3]
Elise Herron of Willamette Week wrote, "Rose City Book Pub has all the makings of a Portland cliché—craft brews, staged poetry readings, rows of old and obscure books and bargoers chatting in hushed tones about their favorite James Joyce and Virginia Woolf novels. But don't be deterred by appearances. The simple bar manages to fuse two of the city's trademarks—beer and used books—without a drip of pretension."[4]
