Tucked between SE Stark St., at the southern end of Laurelhurst Park, and SE Hawthorne Blvd., the bohemian mecca, this quirky thoroughfare has a lot going on, https://www.belmontdistrict.org/, stretching from the Central Eastside Industrial Area, cutting through Buckman and Sunnyside, heading up to the northern edge of Mt. Tabor Park, this fab road offers a wide range of food, activities and vibes. At spots reminiscent of the famed #Haight Ashbury neighborhood in San Francisco and at others full on #Portlandia, there are also plenty of signs of slick modern urbanisation. Watch the video!
Lower Belmont
Hop off the streetcar at the west end of the strip and meander east. Discover the gourmet, family owned grocery, Market of Choice, the Portland outpost of the Tokyo-based Afuri Izakaya, grab a brew at Modern Times Beer and continue on your way.
If you have a curly top, get a Deva Curl haircut at Venus Allure Salon and Spa and play some ping pong at Pips and Bounce, which is right behind the uber-hip Grand Central Bowling alley. Take your time to stroll and window shop, or grab an orange Bike Town bicycle and keep exploring. There are so many cool places to check out. Around the corner from Crush Bar is Farm Spirit, a top notch, hyper locally sourced, vegan eatery (don’t miss their new baby, Fermenter, on SE Morrison).
