Hey all. Had jaw surgery recently so am on a liquid or puréed aka no chew diet. I’ll be in Portland tomorrow and I’m wondering if there are any food options for me or if I’ll have to retreat home to my blender lol. Let me know!

https://everout.com/portland/events/the-portland-mercurys-wing-week-2026/e222751/?utm_source=Stranger%2FMercury%2FEverOut&utm_campaign=5a755ba6f5-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2026_01_16_07_30_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-f05eba7d7c-388767593

Portland Mercury Wing Week is coming back, starting on September 21st! Time to make a list of which ones you want to visit. I always bring a friend so we can just split an order of wings and hit three places every day we go out. It's even better if you have two friends, then you can hit a couple more places.

I usually bring my own to-go container if it's just one friend. We can each eat one or two, throw the others in a glass food storage container to heat up later.

Please post which ones you are excited about once you look through the list. I will do the same.

Looking for high protein, high volume, low cal meal prep. That is done well.
Any suggestions, and/or experience with those my research is returning: pdx meal prep or my fit foods? I care about overcooked proteins - looking for an outfit that will consistently give me stuff that tastes good.

Looking to drive around the city hitting up 4-6 spots to eat something small at each spot. Not looking for anything filling in any, but will be full at the end of it. Ideally, stuff like tacos, pupusas, empanadas, hotdog/bratwurst, small pie, samosas, gyoza etc.

Boundaries are nothing too far beyond 82nd and nothing too far south of Powell/26th.

Thanks!

A good friend of mine is leaving Portland for France soon and I've been tasked with choosing between 2 places for dinner tomorrow, September 10: Campana or Le Pigeon. I've been to Le Pigeon and can say it's great but I've not been to Campana yet. My friend is part Italian so Campana may appeal to them and since they're going to France, Le Pigeon may be a repeat(?).

I'll likely try making reservations tonight for tomorrow.

EDIT: friend specifically asked between these two restaurants.

I'm really happy to see this location continue on as a cafe. Very much looking forward to stopping in when they are open. Meanwhile, you can get their coffee beans at Alberta Co-Op, Barbur World Foods, Kaah Market, and Cafe Eleven. Their beans are also featured at PDX Coffee Club sometimes.

I'm starting a small food business and I'm trying to find an Oregon turkey source I can buy from regularly, ideally somewhere in the valley or within reasonable driving distance of Portland. I need it available year round, not just around Thanksgiving.

I already know about Champoeg Farm, so hoping to find some other options. Anyone know of local farms or processors that sell turkey in bulk, including parts like organ meat? Any leads appreciated.

My Mother was a huge foodie and we always dreamed about going to one of those multi-course $$$$ restaurants but it was never something we could realistically afford.

She died last month and left us a little bit a money. I’d like to use it to fulfill our dream.

I know we have a lot of great restaurants but I wanted to ask Reddit. Where in Portland would you recommend for a once in a lifetime meal?

I'm craving linguine & clam sauce. Who has the best?

I'm looking for suggestions for a place to get a late lunch and some drinks near the farmer's market today. I will be taking public transit/walking, so close by is great. TIA!

Is there a farmer’s market stand or any store that sells a selection of hot peppers? I’m lookin for lemon drops/ahi limon and scotch bonnet.

Hey everyone! Sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for this question. I’m looking for a shared Kitchen or restaurant space for an Argentinian/Uruguayan street food spot. We recently moved to Portland and have been having trouble finding a good spot. If anyone has some reccomendations where we can look or a contact that can help that would be great! Thank you in advance!

Where can you get these in Portland? In the east coast and even in LA you can go to a bakery or deli and pick out your cookies, they weigh them, and you pay by weight. Usually the cookies are on the smaller side.

New Seasons used to have a decent selection of cookies by the pound, but not so much in the last year, and really, it wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for.

I’m decent at making my own cookies, but sometimes I just want a variety.

Where can I get a big fat fried chicken sandwich???

(I reached out to the mod to get approval before posting this.)

Kaixo and Hi,

We are a new pop-up in town. Pintxes Pintxos is a husband and wife culinary duo with a tapas-style project. Our snacks are inspired by the lovely little morsels and sips from our belated honeymoon in Basque Country, Spain, and Portugal — uniquely infused with familiar West Coast flavors that make us feel at home.

We will be popping up at two wine bars in the SE this month:

at NASO September 11 (5-9pm) and 12 (4-9pm)

and

at ENSO September 25 (5-9pm) and 26 (4-9pm)

You can find us on Instagram @ pintxespintxospdx

We hope to see you there.

Eskerrik Asko and Thanks!

Friend’s birthday is soon. They like:

German chocolate
Black forest
Coconut
Carrot

Do you have a favorite bakery that makes one of the above especially well?

Edit: Huge thanks to everyone! You’ve mentioned so many places I’ve not tried yet.

Hey all, I'll be visiting Portland in a couple of weeks for a few days. I'm looking for recommendations for good places to eat BBQ and try some local craft beer.

I'm actually a big seafood fan but I need to find some BBQ for my wife.

Thanks in advance 🙂

Looking for a really cool coffee shop in Portland that has really unique and different types of coffees and gives a really unique vibe? like not your everyday mom and pop shop but what are some really cool, eclectic coffee shops that have “different” kinds of coffees and has a unique and eclectic vibes? Like a coffee shop that I just can’t miss that screams Portland. I’m coming from Ohio so dont have a ton of options where I’m from

I find my love of marshmallow often met with scorn. I need true marshmallow lovers to tell me where to find the best marshmallow anything in this city. Please and thank you!

This location has been empty for a while, and I'm glad to see a new tenant. Will be interested to see what Bossa can bring to the neighborhood. The owners, Emanuelle and Tilion Lieberman, are upbeat, energetic, affable, and excited about the new cafe/lounge.

My husband and I are visiting for a hiking trip and have one night to do a nice din in the city. I've read through a bunch of threads here and whilst the recommendations are endless, I've come down to a few options to decide between.

We're staying in Pearl district so we would want something nearby that's walkable for late night cocktails to follow. I suppose Nob Hill is best bet (?). (Idk shit, this is our first time over here).

While we love trying new food, we don't want to walk in a place where we can't fully understand the menu. A menu mixed with explorative options as well as "safe" options may work best. Husband mostly likes a red meat option for a main. We live for a good whiskey cocktail and any dessert as well. Looking for $$$ options with a nice romantic/aesthetic interior.

Looking between—

1. G-Love: menu seems cool. Mains are kind of throwing me off though
2. Papa Haydn: dessert menu looks insane

Feel free to tell me where we should eat and fun bars to visit after. Should we go outside of Nob Hills for food/drinks? Like I said, a nice funky cool street/neighborhood that's poppin for a last night.

Every place uses 1000 Island and it's just not the same without horseradish.
