Description and history
Hawks PDX hosted an anniversary celebration event in April 2013.[1] The bathhouse hosts bear nights and gender-fluid nights.[2] In 2013, PQ Monthly was informed by Hawks' manager that membership is open to all male-identified people.[3] Writing for Willamette Week, contributor Jack Rushall described Hawks as "Grindr IRL" (a real life version of Grindr), and "the dive bar bathhouse that feels much more like you're at somebody's house than an upscale gym".[4][5]
Hawks PDX is one of only two bathhouses in Portland, as of 2018.[4][6]
