KEX Portland

Explore Portland by day, come home to KEX by night. 🌙✨

While we're obviously big fans of the Central Eastside, a day wandering any of Portland's five quadrants is a day well spent. We've got favorite spots all over the city and we're always happy to share recs so you can plan your perfect adventure. Whichever direction you're headed, there’s something to discover just beyond our doors.

Don’t just make memories—capture them. 📸 Whether it's a special occasion or just an everyday moment, it's worth remembering. Grab your favorite people and take a little piece of your KEX stay home with you.

A million pillows, the perfect mattress, and cloudlike bedding. Dare we say it will be the best sleep you've had all year?!

We're stoked to be part if the second annual . Locals, whether or not you're crashing at KEX this weekend, take the time to rediscover the city you call home. Maybe you'll find a new favorite or re-discover an old one. The energy is going to be buzzing all over town and we're all about it.

Believe us when we tell you that the 68 Olympic is the perfect drink for this time of year. We're all still holding onto summer (grapefruit!) but starting to prepare for fall (cinnamon!) and the mezcal is the magic that brings them both together.

First Fridays are calling. 🎨✨

Part of what makes our city so rad is the diverse community of artists and makers. One of our favorite ways to explore that is where you can take a free, self-guided art walk through 23+ independent galleries, shops, and studios in the East Side Arts District.

Bonus - tomorrow is hosting open studios and an art market from 6-9pm, less than a mile from KEX.

Spend the morning browsing seasonal produce and locally made treats, supporting farmers and makers while experiencing one of the city’s most beloved traditions. We love at PSU on Saturdays and Shemanski Park on Wednesdays, and you'll want to check out the new in the Pearl District on Sundays.
