The Old Gold is a neighborhood whiskey bar and restaurant in North Portland's Overlook district, open since 2011 on N Killingsworth Street. It's best known for a sprawling whiskey list, a full food menu, and a craft cocktail program, and was named one of "Portland's Best Neighborhood Bars" by The Oregonian. Alongside its spirited menu, the bar keeps a genuine, named non-alcoholic cocktail list built on premium zero-proof ingredients: the Pathfinder amaro analog anchors the Peppino Garibaldi (a Garibaldi-style build with grenadine standing in for Campari), and Drømme Calm appears in lower-intervention drinks like the Prince Valium (a whiskey-free Gold Rush) and the Not Toddy. The zero-proof cocktails — also including the Lady Luck and Ginger Cooler — get the same care as the alcoholic ones, and NA beer options include Athletic Brewing. The bar is all-ages before 9pm daily.
