I'm in Portland OR for a two-day work conference. Do you think I have enough reading material? 😂

If you have any Portland must-dos, let me know!

TEArificbooks Never been there, but Voodoo donut and Powell books are goals 3y

Jilly6183 @mdm139 two in those stack came from Powell's and I can confirm that it is amazing! I haven't done Voodoo Donuts because the locals kept telling me Blue Star was better and to their credit I'll dream about those donuts in the future 🤤😂 3y

This was the most difficult round for me- add in full time school, teen niece moved in and two rounds of strep- I‘d say I am ok- and have to thank my team and my buddy!!!!

I‘m heading to Oregon tomorrow! We‘re spending most of our time in Willamette doing wine tasting 🍷 but we will have two nights and a day in the city of Portland. It‘s my first time there and I‘ll obviously be visiting Powell‘s 🤗 Any other recommendations, bookish or otherwise?

Soubhiville @Hooked_on_books May have some ideas? 5y

Cinfhen Have fun!!!! 5y

Hooked_on_books Powell‘s, definitely (make sure you get a map at the info desk). If you‘re in Portland on the weekend, I recommend the Saturday market (which is poorly named and on Sundays, too) under the Burnside bridge. It‘s mainly crafts and food and a great place to wander. (edited) 5y

cariashley @Hooked_on_books ooh thank you so much! Will try to do the market on Saturday! 5y

Headed to Portland for the weekend! I‘m in a wedding so I won‘t have a ton of time, but beyond the obvious pilgrimage to Powell‘s, anything I just should not miss??

robinb Have fun, safe travels! 7y

That-Bookish-Hiker Besides Powell‘s, you could try one one the breweries in the Pearl or try Little Big Burger. They have great burgers and fries. There is also the Saturday market that happens down by the waterfront. 7y

WhatDeeReads Oh I️ Love Portland! I️ want to go back soon. 7y

cocomass @That-Bookish-Hiker thank you!! I will definitely be checking out that market tomorrow, rain or shine 😃 7y

Putting this out there randomly...I'll be in Portland next week if anybody wants to do a super-awkward-but-maybe-fun hangout. Comment here or message me on Goodreads.
