The 53 breweries within the city limits give Portland more than any other city on earth. While many cities crown themselves as the “Beer Capital of the World,” Portland actually has a right to the title. Walking tours, such as “Flavor Street” and “Forktown Food Tours,” allow groups to visit several pods and sample the best of Portland’s food carts in just a couple of hours. While other cities’ food carts often move around, Portland’s street-side snack shops are congregated into stationary “pods.” There are eight large pods of food carts in Portland, and many other smaller pods and individual carts sprinkled throughout the city. With more than 600 food carts, the streets of Portland are filled with plenty of competing smells. While everywhere in the Pacific Northwest seems to be serving something good, five cities stand out for group tours. Your group will leave a Washington or Oregon food tour with plenty of great pictures and most likely a few extra pounds to remember the trip by.

It’s never hard to find good food and drink-what’s hard is finding a restaurant, winery or brewpub with a bad view.

While the weather is often overstated, the natural settings and faithful watering of the farmland help to make the region a foodie’s paradise.įrom downtown farmers’ markets and food carts to countryside farm to table hotspots and hidden vineyards, there is something for every hungry and thirsty group. Most people associate the Pacific Northwest with two things-beautiful scenery and rain. When it comes to culinary prowess, five cities in Washington and Oregon really step up to the plate and dish up the best food and drink the region has to offer.
