Portland International Airport (PDX) announced this week that the Lightning Bar Collective has collaborated with ChefsTable to open Juliett, a women-in-aviation themed bar at the airport.
Juliett, set to open March 19, will offer travelers curated cocktails, custom-made beers, sustainably-sourced wines, unique and intricate lighting, and sweeping eastward views of Mount Hood from the end of PDX’s Concourse E.
Juliett, which will feature 90 seats, celebrates women aviators and features most prominently Berta Moraleda, Bessie Coleman, Micky Axton and Hazel Ying Lee, with portraits as well as six crafted beers from Fracture Brewing to honor each aviator.
“The cocktail menu was designed by our partner Adam Ohlsson, inspired by the themes of aviation and travel,” said Liam Duffy, Lightning Bar Collective co-founder. “The drinks aspire to be classy and sophisticated but relatable, with several riffs on 1940’s and 50’s classics, and a particular focus on flavors inspired by warm weather to compliment the excitement of journeying.”
