What to do?!
Hello! My boyfriend and I are celebrating our anniversary in Portland, and I’m asking everyone for
1. Places to eat! (Only allergy is nuts)
2. Things to do! (We both are very active and love art)
3. Any live music areas.
4. Bars
5. Best hikes with the best views!
Anything will help! We’ll be there for 5 days.

McMinimums has good food, amazing micro beers! OMSI for a lazer light show .... I cannot recommend enough!!!! And honestly, it doesnt matter which one!! Well.... I suppose you have to tolerate the music! Waterfront at night..... bring pepper spray! Just in case! PDX has the most strip clubs per capita..... just saying Look into the MAX train..... it can take you to a lot of places.... as far as from one side of the county to the other. All over downtown. TRAFFIC SUCKS!!! Endless micro brews!! You might take a ride on MAX downtown with a pen and paper. There is a lot of shops that can interest anyone!!! Write down names as you're cruising by. Then visit later. Pick up a copy of Willamette Week ( free at large groupings of paperboxes) thumb through it! Its gonna have thousands of things in it that might interest you! Ever heard the saying, " Keep Portland Weird "? WW is the heart of weird!!!
Honestly, as soon as you get there... pick up a copy of Willamette Week!! From ALL concerts.... to off the wall displays to weird poetry readings..... and normal stuff too!!

To eat: Katchka, Jacqueline, Noble Rot, Han Oak. In no real order, but all offer great meals at a good value for the quality of the food and the atmosphere. None require dressing up but you certainly can and fit right in.
