Mississippi Avenue Food Tour

3 h
About this activity
Your food tour of Mississippi Avenue begins right in the bustling heart of the neighborhood, where you’ll meet your guide and enjoy your first tasting of the day, a yummy Thai glass-noodle salad, accompanied by homemade blueberry soda or a Willamette Valley Pinot Grigio. From there, continue your walking tour with your local guide, stopping at some of Portland’s most popular eateries and drinking establishments, all concentrated within a few blocks of each other on Mississippi Avenue. Exact itineraries vary slightly each day, but all tours are likely to include Mississippi Marketplace, where food carts gather into a “food cart pod”, The Meadow, a delightful shop dedicated to salt, and chocolate, along with one of Portland’s best breweries. In between stops, pass by shops and other sites that add to the neighborhood’s eclectic character, such as one of Portland’s famous Benson Bubbler water fountains and a light bulb shop where an episode of Portlandia was filmed. The tour ends around the corner from where it began. Take some time after the tour to browse the shops and maybe have another cocktail!

Types of food & tastes:
• The People’s Choice best burger in the city paired with a microbrew
• 2 mini Prohibition era cocktails served alongside hazelnuts and bruschetta
• Korean-Mexican fusion tacos
• Yum woon sen glass noodle salad with a glass of Willamette Valley Pinot Grigio
• Ice cream sandwiches – chocolate-chip cookies with salted-caramel ice cream and lemon cookies and lavender-honey ice cream
• Local dark chocolates from the Portland’s most beloved chocolate makers and chocolatiers

Claire, our guide, was fabulous as she led us from venue to venue. Her explanations of the emergence of the Portland food scene and the history of Portland was fascinating. And yes, the food was ample and delicious. Great places to stop, learn and eat.
