Just checked it out with my buddy, Sharidonn. Beautiful place...love the reclaimed wood throughout. You have to guess where the wood came from for the bar...I won't give a hint! Good food, cold beer, and Lou is the best! It is so nice to have a fun place to go in the neighborhood! #community Don't forget to try the fried banana dessert! Mmmmm

Wonderful place in our Cully neighborhood! Very happy to have them! My favorite is the #7 fried rice with crispy cured pork and green leaf lettuce! �� They have beers and ciders for every taste and an enormous patio with fire pits and giant jenga, frisbee golf, corn hole, and other outdoor games. Inside are several big screens to catch whatever game you're looking for and a kids play area in the corner! This place is truly a must-experience if you're in Cully! �

Great atmosphere and great concept. The food was great and customer service was excellent. The ACE pineapple cider is a must drink. So glad to Lao food/bar concept. Prices very affordable.

Such a chill and friendly atmosphere! Great for family get-togethers as well as a fun night out. The food is absolutely incredible. I highly recommend #4 or #7 if you're new to Laotian dishes, but you can't go wrong with any! I've gone here a couple times and the food and staff has never disappointed. Cully Central really takes care of their customers.

Great neighborhood spot! Large brew selection that includes my favorite! Delicious Lao menu with some typical bar fare as well. Awesome huge patio for playing games, getting some sun, or enjoying a cozy fire.

I love having a place like this in our neighborhood and I would go here even if it wasn’t in our neighborhood. The Laotian food is fantastic and they have kid-friendly foods too. Fun games, kind service, great beer selection too!

I went to Cully Central for lunch with my girlfriends today. We had the chicken larb, steak and Nam Khao. Every dish was delish!! The ambient was nice, clean and open. Also, has a beer bar. A great place to go with families, friends and even watch sports. I will definitely go there again!!

We were so excited to come home after a weekend out of town to find Cully Central OPEN! This is exactly what this neighborhood has needed. The space is amazing, great choices on tap, and incredibly friendly staff. Food from Khao Niew was phenomenal. We are excited to have the outdoor food carts show up for spring. If you come over for a visit and we aren't home, check here!

Delicious food! Beef jerky at 6 different spicy levels ranging from Level 0 through Level 5. Level 1 does have a kick so if you don't do well with spicy, then get Level 0.

This is the place we must visit every time we are in Portland. Our favorite dishes are the sausages (too bad they ran out today), nam khao tod, yam woon sen, and beef jerky.

We go here almost weekly. Friendly staff. Soups are phenomenal, great noodle dishes. Apps are all very good. Fair prices and the restaurant is nice for having a drink while you wait or bringing the family. Kid friendly and wonderful outdoor seating when the weather is nice.

This is one of my all time favorite places. The food is delicious. I’m obsessed with the #07 Nam Khao, so much so that I order an extra one to have leftovers for the next day. All the food has been delicious. The outdoor space has evolved over the year and just seems to become more adorable and comfortable.

Really tasty food. We ordered two different soups and they were delicious. They have a great selection of beers and few ciders and cocktails. We tried the fried banana and it was so good. It has a hip vibe to it. Has some vegan options too.

This was my first visit to Cully Central. This was a nice looking place and it seemed like a good atmosphere. The staff who may have been the owners were very friendly which is always a big plus. The food menu was decent. More in the area of small bites, but the food was good overall and the service was quick. Seating was available both indoors and outside. If you want a quick bite, cold brew and spend a little casual time with friends then Cully Central is a good choice.

Some of the best Laotian food we've had anywhere in this country! We eat papaya salad everywhere we go, and this is among the best renditions. The sausage was superb, the noodle soup was fantastic (even our 7yo loved it), and the crispy rice was delicious!

Hard for me to know where to begin, I love this place so much. It's a neighborhood bar with amazing food and a welcoming atmosphere. Shrimp salad with glass noodles. Last time they were playing Pink music videos and a women's skateboard competition on different screens.

Staying by the airport and deciding whether to go out or just eat it. So glad I decided to try this place. Wasn't sure what to get, but this #7 entree with fried rice and pork was so good. Love thr lettuce leaves to hold the food. Couldn't resist the egg rolls too. The Mango sticky rice isn't like I have had in Thailand. I wouldn't get it again.

A chill vibe with a good beer selection and amazing Loas street food! So many good items on the menu we had a hard time choosing but will be back to sample more for sure. Very clean space and super friendly and accomodating staff. Flavor profile was exciting and different from many other south asian cuisines. Really loved the beef jerky and papaya salad. The combination together was really outstanding. You can order the salad to your desired heat level. The hand made noodles in the chicken soup were very tender and delicious. Cant wait to get back and try more!

Wow what a great experience with Casey at the bar and A making our meal be fantastic. Our Portland manager hosted seven people and I was lucky guest. Fresh, delicious Lao food with spicy options. Full bar, clear indoor and outdoor spaces and bargain prices make this a must in PDX.

A great local spot to go to when craving some Laos style street food. Not only that, they also have some chicken skins that are just so addicting that I've purchased 20 bags already. A place that one should definitely check out!

I came here to try lao food with a friend and it did not disappoint! Each dish has a unique flavor and texture but all equally mouth-watering. Gotta come back to try the entire menu!

I found a great hole in the wall. If you live in portland you should visit this place. Food from laos khao niew is spectacular. I got the soup mee khatee, the best asian soup I have ever tried. I also got the fried rise, cant get enough of it. Crispy mild spicy rice cook to perfection.

The food here is very good across the board and they have a nice beer selection as well. The Nam Khao, a crispy fried rice dish with an incredible savory pork flavor that comes with always-fresh lettuce wraps, is an absolute favorite of ours. Also the crisp lemongrass pork sausages are delicious. We eat here again and again because they never let us down.

The Nam Khao 🤩 I haven’t had this since I was in Chiang Rai and it did not disappoint! That sour flavor and chewy crunch of the rice was spot on. The Laos sausage was also quite delicious as was everything else. Hoping to see Khao Nom Kok on the menu someday. Can’t wait to get back!
