Chill 'n Fill looks like a storefront for filling beer and cider growlers. HOWEVER, it's so much more than that! If you walk through an unassuming door to the left of the cash register, it opens out to a huge space with big TVs for viewing sports, pool tables, and seating for large and small groups. There are a number of food carts, and you can eat inside if you wish. They have an online tap list and typically offer a few ciders, a wine, and kombucha, as well as a huge number of beers. And… check the website for special events. Typically Tuesday is trivia and Thursday is stand up comedy. We provide an empty growler for you to use.

Food scene

This place makes great sandwiches! Our fave is the toasted meatball sub, but they have many options, including building your own. It's a quick, easy walk from our house. The seating is more functional than cozy, because takeout is a big part of their business.

Freshly baked pastries in a welcoming, typically Portland location. If you're a laptop nomad, this is a nice place to work for a few hours on a weekday morning.

Two words: Ocean Roll. This cardamom bun made with flaky croissant dough is a showstopper. The line can be long, but it's worth the wait!

Great cocktails with a southern inspired menu. Outdoor seating is excellent with picnic tables with heated benches in shipping containers.

Pizza and a bar focused on whiskey… what’s not to love? A smoked trout salad and the Smokey Joe pizza (marinara, mozz, bacon, mushrooms, smoked mozzarella) is our favorite combo, and of the six special Manhattans, Lisa recommends Astor’s Patience, which has orange bitters.

This food cart pod has a great assortment of options and has the feel of a stereotypical Portland experience—picnic tables and beer in plastic cups. Our current favorite there is Mero Gyro.

Sightseeing

Not only is the St. Johns Bridge beautiful, it also connects us to Forest park, with miles of forested trails. Even the underside of the bridge is cool, with arched support pillars, a park, and access to the Willamette River.
