Birthday In Portland

[pinktulip]

THis coming August I am spending my 21at birthday in Portland. We will be there for 5 days and as I am flying I can't bring stuff like I do when I drive. So I am looking for places with relativly cheap food and am even hoping to find maybe a bakery.

Portland Oregon?

Here's a link to a blog that contains gluten free restaurant information.

Yay Portland! For my money there is no more gluten-free-friendly city in the U.S.!

I've even heard of little bars w/ gluten-free microbrew on tap, tho it was temporary in the case I'd heard about. (About to run out)

I'm sure the link someone else put up will mention this, but ya gotta go to the gluten-free fish place there. There are 2 now - same owners. Corbett Fish House & Hawthorne Fish House. Rice flour is and always has been used in the batter.

Hi! I loved Portland, Oregon, PinkTulip. I was suprised at how friendly the city/area is to Celiacs. However, they have a strick thing about people who are not 21 being in bars and the bar area in restaurants, so, until your birthday be aware of that! Here is a link to my posting about my trip there with where I shopped and ate at: Open Original Shared Link. Good luck!

Thanks so much for all the recomendations. I actually won't be drinking because we're on convention and it's a no-drinking policy.

THe ting that worries me the most is quick meals, as I often only had a little over an hour. Though dinner a few times we have (supposedly) 4 hours. Though I found a place 20 minutes by car to a sandwhich showp that has gluten-free stuff so I'll be cutting it close but hopefully can make it.
