Aalto Lounge is a bar in Portland, Oregon. Named after Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto, the bar opened in 2000.
Aalto Lounge is a bar along Belmont Street in the district of the same name within southeast Portland's Sunnyside neighborhood.[1] Willamette Week has said the bar as a "sleek, midcentury modern vibe" with DJs, cocktails, and a secluded backroom.[2] The newspaper's Pete Cottell said the Aalto Lounge has a "sleek, cavernous atmosphere that makes everyone inside look 20 percent sexier".[3] Named after Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto, the interior has mid-century Scandinavian furnishings.[4] Portland Monthly has described the bar as "on the border between dive bar and hipster hangout".[5]
