Food scene
Victoria is the closest bar to the house, but it's also a place I would travel to if it was across town. Very stylish and hopping on the weekends. Great patio. Vegan and Veg options, as well as a great burger.

Authentic west coast 60s Tiki Bar legendary for the neon signs and the karaoke. While karaoke is a main draw, it's in a back room, so you won't get suck unless you want to. They even rock during weekend bunch if you want to sing and avoid the crowd. Highly recommended if any of that sounds like your bag.

Great tacos! Great drinks!! Sometimes a not so great line. Be prepared to wait... not saying it isn't worth it. Just be prepared.

One of my favorite places on Mississippi. Great food and drinks in a old Portland building. The bar has an authentic old school vibe. Grab a spot on the patio if you can.

Very hip bar on Mississippi with amazing design details like hand painted wallpaper... and don't forget to check out the mirrors in the bathroom. The menu features a beet and whiskey cocktail that I cannot recommend more.

Prost! is a german style beer (and liquor) bar. You can't go wrong if you're looking for a German Pilsner.
Locals tip: Prost is directly next to one of the best food cart pods in town. You can grab food at a cart, bring it into the bar, and enjoy your Korean tacos with a Bavarian lager.

You CANNOT beat this BBQ in Portland. This is the best hands down. There might be a line, but it's worth it. Go for lunch because they might be sold out and closed for dinner.

A local fave for brick oven pizza and ice cream. Note that this place is family friendly... and is everything that label comes with. If that isn't your bag I would recommend another option.

Red Fox is my favorite local "dive bar". It is a real Portland bar that very few tourists would find on their own. Very good bar food!

A Mississippi Ave institution all the way at the end. This is a treasure of a "Old Portland" bar in a tiny house. As the area explodes around it this place stays the same... in a good way.
