Chickpeadx - Portland

Everything is fresh and delicious. The cauliflower is particularly amazing. The Zipper in general is amazing right now. A few small plates from here, a couple from Wares next door, an amazing cocktail from paydirt and some soft serve (and a stunning chicken sandwich) from Basilisk is a wonderful night out with friends!

The falafels here are my favorite so far and the fried cauliflower was also a hit. The food was prepared quickly and all of it was very good. They carry Oregon Tonic Kombucha for the 'booch enthusiasts. I recommend the platter so you can try a few of their creations in one sitting. There is community seating in the back that serves as the eating space for all of the restaurants in that building.

I visited the Zipper for pizza and decided to stop by the next door place to try their falafel. I found it to be quite good! However, I think I might prefer the falafel at Oasis and the Gyro House a little more. That said, I have no complaints. The staff was very friendly, even when I mentioned my pizza plans. I'll provide an update if I return!

The dishes are fresh and flavorful, accompanied by fun sauces. You can choose from a wrap, rice bowl, or salad. The fried eggplant is absolutely delicious!

The Zipper is fantastic! All the dining options are excellent, and I love the food pod, which offers a variety of great choices. ChickPDX is one of our favorites, providing a delicious meal for around $10. My go-to dish is the falafel salad. The process is simple – just walk in, place your order, and the food is brought to your table. Afterwards, you can easily bus your own table. There are plenty of outdoor seating options for sunny days, as well as indoor seating for rainy weather. It’s a wonderful spot for vegans, vegetarians, and those who need gluten-free options, but really, it's just great food all around!
