If you're on the adventurous side, Morchella is a restaurant about 3/4 mile away on NE Fremont Street that focuses on "foraged" food. This means wild animals like boar (if you are interested in meat) and they also have 100% vegan dishes with nuts & mushrooms on the other end of the spectrum

This excellent coffee roaster is one of our favorites in Portland. It's technically in the Alberta district and is about 2 miles away, but if you make a trip to Alberta Street we highly recommend it! It's a coffee roaster that is originally from Melbourne, Australia, and they branched out in Portland. They actually roast their beans on N Williams Ave a few blocks from the guest house.
