Easily one the best clubs in Portland, the Holocene's size makes its diversity possible. The main room is leveled off to casually separate the bar from the dance floor. The interior room feels like an all ages rec center, but has an outstanding sound system and large projection screen behind the stage. Check out the bathroom-sized smoking room before its too late. Concrete and lit only by a single bulb, its looks like a crack house and feels like a nicotine tent. It's hard not to think of it as a cruel joke on smokers by the owners. You will wait at the bar, but its almost always worth it.
