Date ideas across Portland and beyond

The second edition gathers more than 150 outings in and around Portland, from neighborhood coffee and ice cream stops to multiday trips toward Hood River and Mount St. Helens. Its range makes the book useful for both quick local plans and longer escapes, while the mix of familiar landmarks and lesser-known places gives the guide a discovery-minded focus. Updated to replace destinations that have closed, it also functions as a practical collection of ideas for exploring the region.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Portland-area couples seeking ideas for dates and weekend outings
  • Visitors interested in exploring Portland and nearby destinations
  • Friends or solo explorers looking for local places to see, do, and taste

Book overview

This fully revised and updated second edition of Portland Book of Dates builds on the 20,000-copy success of the first edition, with new content to replace (sadly) closed destinations, keeping it fresh and endlessly useful.

Marrying style and substance, Portland and the people who love her now get a curated and creative guidebook of more than 150 outings in and around Portland to inspire romance and adventure.


Secret spots, beloved locales, and unexpected destinations offer endless options for date night or a weekend getaway.

Finally, a stylish, cheeky, curated guidebook of cool places for Portlanders (and visitors) to go on dates and adventures. These range from one-hour coffee and ice cream dates in Portland's neighborhoods to multiday expeditions to Hood River and Mount St. Helens.

In-the-know authors and tastemakers Eden Dawn and Ashod Simonian will reveal where the cool and quirky go, have a bead on the obscure and fascinating, and are motivating enough to prompt even the most dedicated homebody to head out the door. Discover (or rediscover) this essential resource and armchair read for Portland-area couples (and singles with friends) interested in learning about off-the-beaten-path things to do, see, and taste.
