Ken’s Artisan Bakery

Even in a city as food-obsessed as Portland, this bakery stands out for its exemplary selection of French-influenced macarons, brioche, fruit tarts, rustic breads and much, much more. Sweets-lovers will want to tuck into brioche cinnamon buns, moist carrot cake and hazelnut butter cookies, while savory-seekers should dive into herbed goat cheese croissants, nutty walnut bread and egg salad sandwiches.
