White Owl Social Club is a bar and restaurant in southeast Portland, Oregon's Buckman neighborhood, in the United States.[1][2][3]
History
White Owl was established in January 2013.[4] Ownership changed from Matthew Jacobson and Michael McKennedy (who also own Sizzle Pie) to AJ Fosik, Jason Radich, and Matthew Relkin in September 2015.[5][6]
In 2016, White Owl was the most frequent Lyft bar destination in Portland.[7] In 2018, the business permanently removed beef and lamb from its menu for environmental purposes.[8]
In 2019, the bar apologized and fired two security guards for removing a transgender guest.[9][10]
