Bertie Lou's Cafe

When we think of a comforting brunch, we think of Bertie Lou's Cafe, located in the charming Sellwood neighborhood of Southeast Portland. Known for its cozy atmosphere and generous portions, the café offers many delicious Eggs Benedict options to choose from, and their house-made gravy is a must-try. After brunch, we recommend taking some time to explore the nearby antique shops along Sellwood Antique Row. Strolling through these unique stores has become one of our favorite ways to spend a relaxed afternoon in the neighborhood.

The Heist Bar & Food Carts

Space is a former bank turned into The Heist! Great food cart pod with many options, indoor and outdoor seating with a full bar!

Dirty Pretty

Cloud City Ice Cream

Portland Japanese Garden

Nestled in the hills of Washington Park, beside one of the country’s largest urban forests, this beautiful and tranquil garden offers a peaceful retreat within the city. It’s a wonderful place to slow down, take in the scenery, and enjoy a quiet moment surrounded by nature.
