Brooklyn neighborhood’s Rose City Coffee Co will be open 24-hours a day. This seems big for Portland: a 24-hour coffee shop. Starting Tuesday, November 11, you can head there really any time of the day and they’ll be open. There will be perpetual coffee, of course, but also their breakfast and lunch sandwiches; pastries and bagels will be served 24/7; their full menu, including flatbread items and mocktails, will be served 3pm to 5am. 3370 SE Milwaukie Avenue, Portland

Give!Guide 2025: Food Edition in the Portland Metro Area

It’s almost Give!Guide time! This annual fundraiser, produced by the Willamette Week and takes place between November 1 and December 31, helps raise funds for nonprofits in the Portland metro area. It’s a significant presence at Bridgetown Bites HQ each year, but we haven’t talked about it much here.

This year, we want to highlight the food aspects of the Big Give Days—there are three days devoted specifically to food, and six days that incorporate food elements into the prizes.

Hanging Out at Alchemy Cider in Portland (Photos)

Seating and looking back into Alchemy Cider.

Last week I had a chance to spend some time at Alchemy Cider for an enjoyable Halloween Happy Hour gathering. It was nice to see colleagues and see the Alchemy space, which I’ve been curious about since it opened this past summer. There were cider flights (I did not partake, though I heard they were very good), we got to tour the production facility, and ended our time with some delicious pizza from nearby Dimo’s. Here’s some of what I saw.
