Eat Your Way Through East Portland’s Vegan Destinations - Eater Portland

"To kick off your vegan food crawl — especially if you need a warm beverage in the morning to merely function — head over to Jet Black Coffee in the Gateway District. Jet Black collaborated with Water Avenue Coffee to create their own custom medium-dark blend with chocolatey notes. If coffee isn’t your jam, they’re also stocked with Portland teas. Jet Black sources pastries from places like Shoofly Vegan Bakery, Sweetpea Baking Company, Bee’s Cakes, and Bowery Bagels — those feeling like something sweet should opt for a Shoofly cinnamon roll; otherwise, stick to an everything bagel with Vtopia cashew cheese." - Latisha Jensen
