The Carriage Room was a strip club in Portland, Oregon, in the United States. It operated for eighteen years at 1000 Southwest Broadway, underneath the Broadway Theatre. It closed in 1988 when the theatre building was demolished. Carriage Room was one of seven clubs owned by Roy Keller (three in Portland and four in Sacramento, California); only Carriage Room and Mary's Club were strip clubs.

In 2008, The Portland Mercury published a retrospective article called "Best of Portland 1988", which briefly profiled a dancer who performed at Carriage Room, then Mary's Club. According to the newspaper, the women at Carriage Room were "more cabaret performers than strippers, taking the stage to perform (to a soundtrack on cassette tapes) in dramatic evening gowns, with less emphasis on getting undressed".
