Guidebook for Portland
Food Scene
Walking distance from the apartment, this cozy restaurant is a neighborhood favorite. Eat fresh and local from their rotating, seasonal menu that boasts vegetables grown in their own garden. If weather permits, the patio is a great spot to enjoy some sun and play lawn games. Catch happy hour from 3-5pm for some great food deals and discounts on cocktails, wine and beer- cheers! (Make sure to hop on the trail and walk by the lake, rather than on West Union. The walk is a little longer on the trail, but much safer and more enjoyable).
