The Verdict Bar and Grill
The Verdict Bar and Grill occupies one of Oregon’s oldest commercial buildings, built in 1848, directly across from the Clackamas County Courthouse in downtown Oregon City. That location shapes its courthouse-themed American menu.
Appetizers include onion rings, calamari, and Tex-Mex egg rolls. The kitchen runs several mac and cheese variations, including buffalo chicken and truffle versions, alongside fish and chips and steak dishes, plus a cocktail and whiskey list.
On Friday and Saturday nights, the space adds “The V After Dark,” a late-night lounge running until 1:30am. Happy hour runs from opening until 6pm, Tuesday through Saturday; the restaurant is closed Sunday and Monday.
