Quality, affordable pizza. Party pack (2 pizzas, breadsticks, soda) and dinner for 4 deals can't be beat. Good beer selection, and the salads are great too. We have them on speed dial for Friday night.

Fantastic small urban brewery with roll up garage door and outdoor seating in summer. The menu is delicious...includes "bacon for the table" for non-vegan visitors. You won't feel guilty for splurging, because amazingly, they give 100% of net proceeds to local charities!

My very favorite place for drinks, late eats (popcorn and dessert are super yummy), and a great atmosphere. You feel like an adult here without feeling old. ;-) Beautiful ballroom too...

Sadly as busy parents we've only been to see a show once, but it's a great venue. I sat in the balcony (7 months pregnant) and the view was great. Good sound, happening, but intimate.

Exceptionally "livable." Grant Park feels like a quintessential Portland neighborhood. Quiet, affluent without being hoity-toity, neighborly. Life seems to revolve around the park and newly renovated high school. Nearby everything NE Portland has to offer, easy access to SE and downtown.

Located a 5-10 minute drive to north, Alberta has tons of restaurants and shops. The neighborhood had become a ghetto, when artists moved in, renovated homes and began a monthly art night. If you're in town on the Last Thursday, you definitely need to check out the creative scene for people watching alone.
