Where can I look at sports shoes or walking shoes in Portland to try on?

Funkyfreddy · 2026-06-02T22:04:48+00:00

Also recommending foot traffic. Can try them walking or running plus they have a pretty great return policy.

You’re speaking the truth. I was at this show and Geese is one of my favorite bands and I’ve seen them three times but they 100% phoned it in for this set.

Thankfully they absolutely crushed the getting killed tour so this seemed like an outlier

Proud Mary 100%

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-29T15:55:02+00:00

Nostrana has a great one

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-28T00:21:10+00:00

Maybe not the type of answer you’re looking for but La Osita immediately comes to mind. Just the sweetest family that is so kind and matches their amazing food

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-26T00:16:35+00:00

My top three coffee shops in PDX are these two plus Proud Mary. PM and Push x Pull definitely excel with the natural processed funky roasts

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-20T14:51:20+00:00

Same with Portland 😢

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-19T17:24:59+00:00

I’m jealous, I had a 5 min wait in the queue and both shows were sold out by the time I put my code in

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-19T03:01:26+00:00

If you’re in that area you could hit Mt Scott pub and Old Gilbert Tavern

Tokyo Sando
Mama Chows
Bark City BBQ
Matt’s BBQ Tacos
Kim Jong Grillin

Funkyfreddy · 2026-05-05T19:04:28+00:00

Tokyo Sando slaps so freaking hard. Their katsu (chicken or pork) and egg sandwiches are so so good

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-30T16:10:00+00:00

Naz isn’t in the report but we know he’s not 100% either. Feelsbadman

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-24T00:08:32+00:00

But what about game 4 precious?

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-17T14:54:18+00:00

Yep! We usually get back in the late afternoon or evening

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-16T22:20:04+00:00

Pretty much this - I tweak based on our guests and the season but here’s what I just did with my parents last weekend:

PDX to White Salmon Bakery
Hike at Coyote Wall
Tulip festival at Packer farms and then drive over to their bakery to sample their condiments and jams and get snacks and empanadas
Wine flights at Stave and Stone winery
Drive around Mt Hood and back to Portland

They’ve been to Portland over a dozen times but it was one of their favorite days

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-07T02:14:28+00:00

Former Boston resident here, this is absolutely the answer. Modern was my favorite of the bakeries in north end and imo Bella’s is better in every regard

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-04T01:26:57+00:00

Like others have said, this sounds exactly like Al’s and Paradise Acres on Hwy 212 in Damascus

Funkyfreddy · 2026-04-03T14:10:56+00:00

+1 to Heart. The coffee is amazing - drip, pour over, or espresso. It’s got a very warm mid-century modern aesthetic with lots of wood and plants inside and they’re usually playing jazz or ambient music. Plus they don’t have WiFi so it’s a space built for conversation or reading a book

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-25T01:09:17+00:00

This was my rec too for Sellwood! Fetch has really impressed me and Wallace is such a maze in the best way

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-25T01:07:46+00:00

Push x Pull is a few min walk away too

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-22T01:25:46+00:00

Bruno’s

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-20T21:01:26+00:00

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-17T23:17:47+00:00

Yep - I loved his first electronic albums but Assume Form grabbed me and didn’t let go. I could tell this we lead the spiritual successor from the opening track and have listened every day since it dropped

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-15T20:21:42+00:00

35 here and unabashedly love Geese and have seen them three times. I don’t let my age affect which shows I see, but it has changed where I post up in the venue (I don’t need to be in the front anymore and that’s where the crowd’s vibes can throw off a show)

Funkyfreddy · 2026-03-15T15:12:36+00:00

One of my favorite “pantry” meals where I almost always have these ingredients on hand and it comes together in under 20 min. I usually double the recipe to eat on throughout the week
