THE BEST Phô in Portland!!! If you love it, you MUST go here! We lived in Vietnam for a time, and this is the closest to the real thing you're going to find around here!!!

Ok. We know that Voodoo Donuts are a thing. But personally, I hate waiting in the "around the block" lines at both store locations found around downtown Portland. HOWEVER--they have a cart, serving all the same iconic donuts, and NO WAITING (ok, very little waiting) here at Cartlandia!!! It's the best if you're not going for the "full Voodoo experience" that takes an hour...if you just want the pink box and to eat the donuts, this is totally for you. Otherwise, go for it downtown! It is fun to do, too!!!

I think these donuts are the absolute best! My #1 favorites in Portland, just overall yummy and always reliable. I've been here with no waits sometimes, and a loooooooong line at other times, just depends on the day and how many people are craving donuts!

Essentials

This is where we go for groceries/essentials when in town. It's a quick walk up the street, has basically everything you may need or have forgotten for pretty reasonable prices.

Shopping

Quirky, classic "Portland" stuff! Get locally made, handcrafted jewelery and gifts, clothing that says "Portland" and other NW related things...always fun, always quality, one of my all-time favorites.
