One of the best Vegan and Veggie restaurants nearby. We eat here most often. You can still get biscuits and gravy. You can still get meat here. Also, they have a rotating art on the walls.

I have completed many paintings here. They have the best Masala Chai in town! And you can purchase very rare teas here. It can be very busy here but there is always a comfy couch available or the outside garden area.

My other favorite place to eat. They also have a very long wait to get in. People are crazy about breakfast in Portland. They seasonally rotate their items. Everything is seriously good. Not vegan in any way.

Best French cuisine in town, hands down. It is a very small space located very centrally to everything in Portland.

Holy moly! You can walk here from my house. They turned an old school into a many-roomed hotel with art covering the walls. McMenamins is a hotel and bar chain that is Grateful Dead Themed! Does it get any cooler than that? They make their own beers and wines, have a soaking pool, gardens, and secret rooms hidden throughout the property. also...shuffle board anyone?

Touristy spots that you need to check out

These are all the fantastic places that I like to show people or tell them to go to while visiting our fair city
Reserve about 4 hours to get lost in this place. It is an entire city block with 4 stories of books and a cafe! You can find anything here, also tons of used options.

OMG this place sooo beautiful. It is located up in the West hills and has a perfectly framed Mt. Hood selfie spot at the top of the stairs by the tennis courts than overlooks the city. Go there starting around May and the flowers will be starting to bloom.

This park is so amazing and you get really fantastic views. It sits on an extinct caldera, but you wouldn't know it. If you are in the Hawthorne area, you should stop by a food cart a take lunch to go to have a little picnic up there. Or watch the sun set over the city. My favorite bench in all of Portland is up there.

This is the place you go to walk up and down the streets to look for awesome little vintage shops, buy a gift, gawk at the hippies. You know, typical Portland stuff.

33 minutes from our house! This is such an amazing waterfall with a dramatic drive in to the Gorge alongside the mighty Columbia River. there is a steep hike up to the top of the falls, with a great platform at the edge.

Best Hike within an hour of Portland. go up to Twister Falls. It is about 4 miles in. Prepare to be on this trail all day. You will see the most beautiful falls along the way, amazing ferns, wildlife and nature.
