Kure Superfood Cafe

"Like so many good casual spots, Kure started out as a food cart—when the lines got out of control, the owners knew it was time to expand into brick-and-mortar. The menu is full of fresh-tasting acai bowls and smoothies, along with a healthy selection of cold-pressed juices and other healthy eats, like oatmeal and matcha (the West End location actually has some heartier lunch options, too, like salads and quinoa bowls). Astonishingly (and awesomely), 90% of the ingredients used in their products are grown or made in Portland. The other locations only have juice, smoothies and açai bowls, but they're in almost every neighborhood: SE Division, Downtown, Hawthorne, and Moda Center."

"Regional juice bar chain Kure PDX used to have a smoothie on their menu called “The Hangover Kure,” but pretty much any item on the menu will make one feel better in a pinch. The menu ranges from sweet, tangy, fruit-focused smoothies like Lush Life — pineapple, banana, kale, ginger, orange juice, blue-green algae, and dates — to green drinks like a creamy Kid Kyoto, a combination of matcha, avocado, dates, coconut oil, and yogurt. Kure’s newest smoothie addition, Sparkle Pony, contains a medley of dragonfruit, avocado, pineapple, dates, and coconut yogurt. In addition to their smoothies, the shop sells meal replacer shakes and shots, as well. Order online for takeout." - Jenni Moore
