Announcing the best bathroom in Portland, according to our readers

Despite being snubbed by America’s Best Restroom awards, we know the true best bathroom resides in Portland.

Portland was snubbed for this year’s America’s Best Restroom Award. That stinks — but we can roll with it.

We took matters into our own hands and asked our readers which Portland bathroom they thought should sit on the porcelain throne. It came down to the top three:

  • Barista, 823 NW 23rd Ave.
  • Mox Boarding House, 1938 W. Burnside St.
  • G-Love, 1615 NW 21st Ave.

And the best bathroom in Portland is...

Mox Boarding House. The restaurant and board game store took the majority of votes in what turned out to be a close race — but in the end, readers were drawn to Mox’s chandelier, ultra-private stalls, and communal hand-washing station. Barista was a close second with its wrap-around jaguar, while G-Love won third place as a write-in candidate thanks to its strong selfie game.

Congratulations, Mox. Your bathroom really is the crème de la commode.
