Ian M. Loves Mary's Club

Portland's oldest topless bar (and now fully nude club) is a family-run business, now owned and managed by original owner Roy Keller's daughter Vicki, plus a few granddaughters and a daughter-in-law who help the place run seamlessly. This is the perfect type of Portland strip club - an epic bar selection, fine food options, a stunning array of beautiful ladies, and a location just a 10-minute walk away from the hotel. They recently had to move from their original spot, but they're just a few blocks away towards the Burnside Bridge (seriously, so close to the hotel!).

Eden P. Loves Communion

A little bit of a longer stroll away (okay, a bike or car would be way more efficient), you'll find COMMUNION, an independently-owned boutique on the corner of SE Hawthorne Blvd & 35th Place in Portland, Oregon. COMMUNION takes great pride in being part of this community and actively supports other local businesses, artisans, makers, and non-profits. As fellow community-lovers ourselves, that's a mission we can totally get behind.

Josh L. Loves Stonedware Co.

Never sacrifice personal style for function when you can have both. Stonedware Co's pipes deliver a powerfully smooth smoking experience for the aesthetically inclined with design-centric smoke wares for on the go, at home, and on display. Handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, each pipe is designed ergonomically for ease of use and made from the finest materials. Stonedware Co. pipes are porcelain, finished with food-safe glaze and 22K Gold, without any fillers. They're so unique and so fun to show off. Check out owner Ariel Zimman's Instagram for lots of custom jobs, display inspiration, and occasionally some really epic sales!

The appropriately named Sports Bra is the Portland sports bar that's dedicated to women's sports. Their mission: To make great food, delicious drinks, and provide a space that supports, empowers, and promotes girls and women in sports and in the community. Plus, they have an awesome cocktail list, great food, and a chance to catch all your favorite women's sports teams on the big screens. And you gotta check out their merch... yes, they sell sports bras, too!

Aaron C. Loves Psychic Sister

Established in 2012, Psychic Sister is a woman-owned and operated small business with two locations in Olympia, WA and Portland, OR. From Psychic Sister's website: "People come in for the lush shopping paradise, and stay for our incredibly good vibes. We’ve witnessed countless miracles, big and small, as we connect our customers to our crystal gardens, library of tarot and esoterica and over 50+ independent vendors and 20+ healing practitioners across our two locations. We believe magic is intersectional and we prioritize inclusivity and diverse representation."

Aubrie J. Loves Seagrape Apothecary

Established in 2009, Seagrape offers self-care for inside and out: think premium body oils, skincare and makeup products next to shadow work books and tarot cards. Stop in for a gift for your witchiest loved one, or join them for workshops that always manage to help you find the magic in the mundane. In the words of its founder, Maria, "If you’re new to tending your flame, or if you’re simply here to re-ignite it, you are in the right place- I can’t wait to watch you grow."
