Good friends of mine run the restaurant and their food is yummy! They make a mean waffle and a wide variety of unique plant-based dishes. Their default is vegan, but you can sub eggs/cheese. They offer 10% off to my guests -> just say you're from "Kathy's Airbnb!" Closed on Tuesdays.

Most people go to the downtown Powell's Books, but I love the more reasonable sized Hawthorne Street location. They actually have two stores nearly side-by-side and my favorite is their Home & Garden location. But for all the other topics, just go two doors down! Just 1.3 miles from me.

Evan was a speaker at our April 22, 2017 Host2Host Conference. What a cool guy who's making a difference in his neighborhood. He offers bike tours where "no one is left behind" and you get to see some of his staff's favorite places in Portland. They also have a bike map which I've put in my guest basket for your reference.
