Food Scene

It's famous for Southern Comfort food. They have killer brunch menu. Something we love to do since the wait can be a bit long- Since our studio is only blocks away, we love to put our name on a waiting list and come back to the house to drink champagne! Why stand outside for an hour when you can relax at home and go back to the restaurant when you think youre table's ready?

Sightseeing

Take the East Esplanade on a bike ride or walk for scenic views of the city and river! We suggest biking a loop beginning at the Hawthorne bridge and heading north to Steel Bridge (There's a bike and pedestrian pathway). From the Steel bridge, you'll take the waterfront bike path south back to the Hawthorne bridge. Also suggested, taking the East Esplanade south via bike to Sellwood to grab beer or food in downtown Sellwood For bike rentals and to support the community, we suggest using Spinlister instead of Biketown.

Drinks & Nightlife

A local dessert and coffee house that is opened in the evening. A great place for live music and dessert. This place is one of the oldest coffee houses with an eclectic and spooky charm to it. Not a place for "alcoholic drinks" but a great place for nightlife.

The main bar area on the first floor has great cocktails and there are several bars within walking distance (including Side-door and Circa 33). Looking for an underground house music vibe on a Friday or Saturday? The Liquor Store basement's covers are usually between $5-$10.
