Eat and drink like a local or dine all over the world
Our two Portland Roasting Cafés serve organic coffee, beverages, fresh bakery goods, assorted oatmeal breakfasts, yogurt, and sandwiches.
And it doesn’t get more Portland than the Stir Bistro and Lounge, a full service restaurant with a menu focused exclusively on local flavors and specialties. If you like microbrews, Oregon wine or homegrown spirits, Stir has it!
For heartier appetites, our other restaurant offerings range from delicious stir-fry to mouth-watering pizza or nachos, all made to satisfy. Enjoy!

Navigating the building is easier (and quicker) than ever!
Our Level 1 Connector provides seamless access to all exhibit halls and Level 1 meeting rooms.
Visitors are able to move across the entirety of the building’s first and largest level, which makes attending events easy, particularly for people with mobility limitations.
If you’re heading across the building from any location on our main lower level, you can’t miss it! Of course, we still have plenty of accessible elevators, escalators and stairs if you want to get in more steps.
