We love riding our bikes up to JJ's for dinner. It's a low key family friendly place but also has a bar and outside seating. The pizza is delicious and so is the beer. We generally order the Butcher Block with jalapenos and Boneyard IPA.

La Provence is, in my opinion, one of the best places in the city for brunch! My favorite menu item is their Chipotle Chicken Sandwich *add bacon but everything on the menu is delicious! Enjoy!

Locally owned (as are all of my recommendations) with terrific lunch and dinner options as well as mixed drinks (etc). This may sound random but I think their hummus appetizer is the best I've ever had and it has something to do with the delicious bread they use.

This restaurant and theater is a Lake Oswego icon. Some of the best food/drinks in town and right on the lake. If you're bored catch a movie. Very walkable from our house and a must see/experience if you're staying here!

Another fantastic bakery in Lake Oswego. This one is on the outskirts of a beautiful shopping center, it backs up to Millennium Park, and is right next to the lake.
