Every neighborhood deserves a cafe where you can fuel up on your choice of caffeinated beverage and a sweet treat. For many years, North Portland was void of any such place, except for the only beacon of life for miles around, Beaterville Cafe. Now facing competition from all sides, Beaterville is not the only game in the neighborhood, and it’s a good thing, because from my viewpoint Beaterville is in need of tune-up. Enter SohBet, a new ‘coffee house and eclectic market’ that opened in September along Portland’s growing restaurant respite, N. Killingsworth Ave. With a mission to provide “simple foods that are easy to share and partake in,” SohBet does not disappoint. For the lunch crowd, SohBet offers paninis, sandwiches and sharable table dishes such as white bean puree served with rustic bread. For the sweet tooth, SohBet serves locally baked goods from the good folks at Baker & Spice and Black Sheep Bakery. What’s the catch? Well, in addition to the good eats, SohBet makes an effort to use all local and organic ingredients. So for all of you in the seeing green crowd, that makes SohBet, a good bet.
