Berbati's Pan
Berbati's Pan was a Greek restaurant, bar and music nightclub in Portland, Oregon, United States from 1985 to 2010. Originally, it started out as Berbati's, but when the operator of the adjacent died, the owner Ted Papaioannou expanded his restaurant into its location and renamed it Berbati's Pan.[1][2] The bar operated with a jukebox and pool tables, and the restaurant hosted cabaret shows with belly dancing.[1][2] The venue had a large L-shaped dance floor and three hard liquor bars.[3]
The club closed down shortly after the death of the owner Ted Papaioannou on November 8, 2010. Berbati's Pan was then sold to the owner of Dante's and Star Theater in Portland.[4] The first group to perform at the club was Five Fingers of Funk and were also the last to play at the club on New Year's Eve.[5][6]
It was located at 10 SW 3rd Street in Portland.[2]
