Awesome little spot with good, affordable food and stiff drinks. A very talented artist did all of the paintings that adorn the bar.

Best venue for free live music in town, if you ask me. Rontoms is famous for their "Sunday Sessions," where there's usually an excellent Psych-Rock band. And their happy hour menu is quite good too!

The neighborhood bar. Happy hour until 6 every day! Darts, cornhole, outdoor seating, decent tap selection, and friendly bartenders. They have good food selection too, with salads, burgers, nachos, quesadillas, sandwiches, and wings. Highly recommended for a laid back drink or dinner.

The closest marijuana dispensary if you are interested in trying some legal weed. They have a decent selection and decent prices, nothing fancy. You can't smoke in public, but you can smoke on our back patio! Open 10am - 9pm.

The best burrito I've ever had...and I'm from Austin, Texas. I very highly recommend the veggie soy-curl burrito with avocado instead of sour cream. Bring cash because this location is a food cart and doesn't take cards.

Sunday brunch is Portland church. It's a cultural phenomenon here that everyone gets up after a long night at the bars and meets up with friends for a leisurely siesta at any number of awesome breakfast spots all over Southeast Portland. This one is my favorite. Great combination of cool atmosphere, friendly service, and great breakfast. I always get the migas with home-made chorizo.

My partner and I love this spot for happy hour. They have a quaint little patio that's very comfortable. The drinks are stiff and the staff are cool. But the thing that really sets this place apart is the food. It's all vegetarian, but you wouldn't know it. The "small" nachos is the size of your head. The tamales are sublime. And my girlfriend's favorite is the vege-carnitas tacos. Just one of them is equivalent to two regular tacos, and the price is right too.

Best burger in town, if you ask me. Friendly, fast service and lots of different choices on the menu. The Foster area of Portland is really coming into its own culturally. If you like the all-American burger, then this place is not to be missed.

This spot is great for some quick, affordable tacos or burritos, and they're open early mornings and late nights. Breakfast tacos are great, also the chicken fajitas street tacos are decent sized and affordable. The wet burrito, or any burrito, is a heavenly indulgence big enough for two meals! Nothing fancy, and a little heavy on the oil, but a tasty very close by option.

Such a delightful gem! Open 7am-3pm, this is the perfect morning coffee or cozy work/reading spot. They have great quiche, salad, and pastries, and some vegan options. There's a little grassy backyard that is so nice when the sun is out. The old record player is always spinning good tunes.

Delicious, creative Spanish cuisine. It is a beautiful space that may have a wait for dinner on the weekends, but it's worth the wait. The best part is the late night happy hour, starting at 9pm, with lots of little plates for $5 each discounts on drinks. Back patio is beautiful and perfect for a warm evening.

Delicious, authentic Vietnamese food, with the classics like pho and bahn mi done very well. Lots of options, and pretty affordable. Decor is not super hip, but the price and the food are worth it. Only open til 9pm, FYI.

The closest coffee shop if you're in need of a quick latte. Walk up or drive through. They have some specialty mochas that are sweet and indulgent, worth a try if you like such things. On a busy street and not quite a chill vibe, but good coffee at good prices, and super friendly baristas. One of our neighbors works there, and it's locally owned and operated, always a bonus!

A food cart pod with a crazy good selection and iconic Portland vibes. Mexican, classic brunch, burgers, yakisoba, chicken, fish, pizza, Italian, Hawaiian, BBQ, desert- something for everyone. Wine, beer and cider too. There's a trend in Portland that food carts have better food than restaurants, and this cart pod is proving the rumors right...

This park is referred to colloquially as "The Bluffs." There is an expansive view of downtown, Swan Island, and even Cathedral Bridge in St. Johns. Be sure to catch a sunset picnic here!

Technically an active volcano, Mount Tabor is really more of a hillock. And there are tons of little private trails all over Tabor that wend their way from bottom to top. On the "summit" there is a great view of SE Hawthorne Street all the way to downtown.
