LIVE MUSIC IN THE HOOD

Portland has developed a well-earned reputation as a great town to listen to live music, whether your choice be blue grass, country and western, jazz, rock, hard rock, vocals, classical or chamber.

Right in the neighborhood of The Fulton House -- within easy walking distance -- there are two restaurant/lounges that feature live music, mostly blue grass and rock.

The first is the venerable Buffalo Gap, which has been around for 30+ years. The other is the Macadam Street Grill, relatively new in the neighborhood, only about two years old. Both are packed on weekends with locals and tourists alike, who come to listen to terrific live music and to be part of the music scene.

Stay at The Fulton House and you can enjoy a few drinks while you toe tap to the beat. Since you walk to both places, there's no danger of a breathalyzer and a DUI on the way home. And, since we're located in an ultra-safe neighborhood where crimes against persons are not even on the screen (more properly, not even on the blotter), you can walk home with your significant other without a care.

If you had one beer too many the night before, plan on relaxing in our large outdoor hot tub in the morning. As long as you use one of our plastic glasses, you can intake some "hair of the dog" while you soak and sigh.

We'll even hold breakfast with plenty of freshly-brewed, strong coffee for you until 9:30 a.m.!
