Join us for our monthly meeting of the Portland Pipe Club

A very casual group of guys who get together each month to enjoy a pipe and conversation. We welcome all kinds of tobacco and tobacco pipes. Bring what you got whether it’s tinned, personal blend, mail-ordered, or something you mixed yourself.

Membership is not required, (so just show up and follow your nose or look for the guys with pipes.) Drop ins are welcome.
