1st Stop: The Portland Airport!
The PDX airport itself is sort of like a mini Portland. Some of the best local cuisine and shopping can be found without ever having to leave our award-winning airport.
Ever heard of the iconic PDX Airport carpet? Head on over to Tender Loving Empire’s music listening room and take a selfie in front of the infinity mirror and PDX airport carpet. Located in Concourse E, near Gate E5, next to Tillamook Market and Blue Star Donuts + Coffee!
In Concourse D? Stop by Deschutes Brewery for a beer or have a bite at Burgerville, then visit Tender Loving Empire for some retail therapy (happy gifting to yourself or someone special!). Check out more PDX Airport wonders and eats here.
Get exploring!
