Kells Irish Pub
Kells Irish Pub is a pub in Portland, Oregon, United States.

Description

The restaurant is housed in the Glisan Building, in the southwest portion of the city's Old Town Chinatown neighborhood.

History

Opened in 1990, the restaurant is owned and operated by Gerard and Lucille McAleese. Their son Garrett opened Kells Brew Pub (now Kells Brewery) in northwest Portland in 2012.
