Taste your way through Portland’s past and present, one sweet bite at a time.
Your mouth-watering adventure begins at Sesame Donuts, located near the South Park Blocks, one of Portland’s oldest and most iconic green spaces. As you savor Sesame Donuts’ fresh, handcrafted donuts, your fun, knowledgeable guide will tell you about the history of this lush, tree-lined park. Originally established in the mid-19th century, the South Park Blocks were designed to bring a touch of nature to the city and have since become a recreational and cultural hub, surrounded by theaters, museums, and historic landmarks.
You’ll then head towards Pioneer Square, often called Portland’s “Living Room.” Along the way, the tour visits a neighborhood café that expertly blends modern donut-making with Portland’s signature coffee culture. At Coco’s Donuts & Coffee Bar you’ll taste the perfect harmony of sweet and caffeinated, a pairing that reflects the city’s love for local, artisanal craftsmanship.
Next, it’s off to the original location of the legendary Voodoo Doughnuts, a Portland icon known for its quirky vibe and even quirkier creations. As you bite into a Voodoo Doll donut or a Bacon Maple Bar, you’ll hear the story of how this offbeat shop put Portland on the map as a must-visit destination for donut lovers and helped define the city’s reputation for embracing the unconventional.
The final stop on this tasty tour is to the bustling Pine Street Market, where a boutique stand, Lil' Funky Donuts, offers bite-sized donuts that pack big flavors.
