A longstanding NW Portland institution for family-owned Mexican food. The kiddos will love the salsa bar and colorful dining room!

A fast, casual, and healthy option for those growing kiddos, make sure to check out the Laughing Planet Cafe. Full of veggie-induced burritos and garden-fresh salads, this cafe always hits the spot for a quick lunch and dinner run.

A real crowd-pleaser that has finally opened its first locations in Portland! Our neighborhood's location features a spacious dining room with colorful murals that can be a great place to sit for a spell after a day out shopping on NW 23rd.

Mamma Mia! Grassa is a must for the kiddos. Throw on the bib and chow down on some classic Italian food at this casual eatery. A simple spaghetti for the kids, while parents can enjoy a clam bake galore! Don’t forget to take in some tunes with Grassa’s record player, Buon appetito!

Take a slice out of life and of a delicious pizza pie! A poppin’ pizzeria, Life Of Pie is only a short walk from our hotel and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. A kid classic, you can never go wrong with pizza!

Like mother always said, brunch is the most important meal of the day. Slow-cooked and homemade, this delicious brunch spot takes pride in its mouth-watering and heart-warming comfort food. With a sense of family, Mother’s bistro even displays a “mother of the month” to share her family recipe. Along with a cute play area for the kids, you can’t beat this as a kid-friendly top choice!

Stop by and fill up at this kid-welcoming pub (that’s right you heard us!). Blue Moon, part of a long line of Mcmenamins delights, offers a more comfortable and casual pub with lots of options for dining. Splattered with luminescent lanterns and eclectic artwork, we think Blue Moon has a bit of a whimsical feel for the perfect dining experience.
