Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Hillsboro

"While you're wandering around town you will undoubtedly run across the Portland Armory (pcs.org), home of Portland Center Stage and the Gerding Theater. Even if you aren't seeing a show, this intimidating brick fortress, in the middle of the Pearl District, is worth popping into for a latte and a looksie. For a live show, head a few blocks south-west to the Artists Repertory Theatre in the Goose Hollow neighbourhood (no geese allowed, please and thank you)."

"Laurelhurst Theater is a piece of Portland's history, and unmatched in its wide selection of contemporary, indie and art house cinema. Its glowing neon sign has lit up the city's south-east quadrant for nearly a century (no, it's not a bathhouse – wait, it might have been at one time, Portland has a downright filthy history). Once you make your way past the harming ticket window, you'll find a selection of craft beers and fresh baked pizza."

"Established in 1952 Lakewood Theatre Company is the oldest continuously operating theatre company in the Portland metro area. Performances are on the Headlee Mainstage a 220-seat intimate theatre at Lakewood Center for the Arts in Lake Oswego."

"1201 NW 17th Avenue Portland OR 97209 503-229-0627www.bodyvox.com. Dance troupe BodyVox takes a wildly imaginative and often hilarious approach to physicality. The company’s engaging visceral work has been featured at the Academy Awards and in music videos for U2 and Sting."

"This nonprofit comedy club is on a mission to improve the lives of Portlanders through the art of comedy. One cool way they improve our community is by offering multiple $5 comedy shows every week. Check Curious Comedy‘s calendar for dates and times."

"Baker & Spice first came on my radar due to their cult-like following for cake. Thanks to the massive success of their custom cakes, they opened a great bakery right next door where they serve great coffee and perfectly baked treats like croissants, coffee cake and sticky buns. You’ll notices tons of happy customers rushing in and out but if you’re in a mood for a slow weekend (or weekday) morning, I suggest snagging a small table and people watching while you enjoy your treat or the morning paper."

"Baker & Spice’s The Cakery is entirely devoted to creating jaw-dropping custom cakes, offering a wide range of cake and frosting flavor combinations but also selling cookbooks, cake stands, and tools dedicated to the art of cake making. For those looking for delicious baked goods beyond cake, head next door to its cafe, Baker & Spice, where you’ll find a selection of croissants and other morning treats. Both are open for walk-ups and online pre-order."

"Don’t mind the line if there is one when you go because your sweet treats will more than make up for it. So order a cup of steaming coffee and a maple twist or a savoury bread pudding for breakfast. Don’t forget to get an epi du sel to take home too."

"A stop at Blue Star Donuts was definitely non-negotiable (sooooo yummy), and then we headed to our first brewery. We were looking for good food, which forced our hand a little, and ended up at Deschutes. But later we went to the much smaller 10 Barrel Brewing on a whim, and were delighted by the fun rooftop patio on what ended up being a gorgeous day."

"Voodoo Doughnuts is a Portland classic, and Blue Star is a local favorite. Check out this map for some doughnut guidance."

"Water Avenue is a lively café with people coming and going, mellow rock playing, and coffee that's taken seriously. (To wit: There are Chemex coffeemakers and Hario kettles behind the counter, and roaster Matt Milletto helped found the barista school next door.) A daily Chemex menu suggests the three best roasts to try out via Chemex, though you might also try the perfectly made latte, topped with skillfully executed rosettas. You can also get a reliably delicious breakfast and lunch here."

"With a few locations around Portland, Water Avenue Coffee’s growing reputation as a go-to coffee shop in Portland is strong. This cafe has a lively atmosphere, friendly baristas, and even a menu that suggests the best roasts to try using their fancy Chemex machine. Grab one of the recommended coffees here and pair it with some of their delicious breakfast."

"Located on the bottom floor of the Justice Center on the corner of Madison Street, the Good Earth Café is a friendly neighborhood café with a 50-seat dining room and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Open for breakfast and lunch, Monday through Saturday; the Good Earth Café is a popular spot for breakfast with morning favorites such as biscuits and gravy, southern fried chicken, eggs benedict, French toast, pancakes, and breakfast sandwiches. 1136 SW 3rd Avenue, corner of Madison Street, Portland, OR."

"211 SW 6th Portland’s various Bunk Sandwiches spots have all kinds of fancy-pants sandwiches, and because not everything in this world has been irredeemably corrupted, most of ’em hover right around that sweet $10 price point. But EVEN CHEAPER is their simplest, most perfect offering: The Egg & Cheese on a Hard Roll is exactly what it sounds like—a fried egg, some melty cheese, a toasted poppy-seed roll—and it costs a mere $5. Sure, these things work great for breakfast (they’re best when the yolk is runny), but I grab them for lunch, squeezing into Bunk’s hole-in-the-wall location downtown."

"If you’re looking for more gelato options, consider visiting Staccato Gelato, a Portland ice cream shop with more than 120 rotating flavors of gelato and sorbet. Their vanilla gelato alone is one of the shop’s crowning achievements, with it’s smoky, warm vanilla aroma and taste coming out with every bite. Aside from being a gelato shop, Staccato also offers cakes and donuts for visitors to enjoy in the sit-down eatery within the establishment."

"Staccato’s whopping 120 rotating ice cream and sorbet flavors have made it a favorite for families — especially those with particular tastes (read: picky eaters). To go even more decadent, Staccato also serves doughnuts alongside its impressive slate of gelatos and sorbettos, ranging from Lucky Charms to prickly pear. View this post on Instagram"

"In the last 3 to 4 years, their hours change or unexpectedly close on weekdays or weeknights and Sundays. I've gone 5 times between 5 to 8pm in the ..."

"After five years in her super-cute Belmont spot, former Chez Panisse pastry chef Jehnee Rains is still folding up some of the best crêpes in the city (with a $4 happy hour and a killer brunch to boot). Her sweet tooth shines in dessert crêpes like the “Chocolat,” a cocoa lover’s dark fantasy folded with Rains’s homemade version of Nutella, chocolate sauce, candied hazelnuts, and cinnamon ice cream. Savory options range from vegan and kid-friendly to create-your-own crêpes."

"3229 NW Pittock Dr, Hillside, Portland, OR, United States map. It’s one of our favorites in the city and walking the grounds is completely free (there is a fee to enter the mansion). Try to visit in the summer to increase your chances of having a clear sky to see Mount Hood looming over the city."

"West HillsIt has better views of the city than any other Portland park, and it's free to tour the grounds. Tours of the sprawling mansion cost $10, which isn’t a bad price if you like creepy toys: the Pittock kids’ playroom is straight out of the Bride of Chucky."
