# Visiting Portland over the 4th of July weekend? The Brigade offers up a guide to some of their favorite spots

When you’re visiting a new town, it’s always awesome to get some insider tips on the best spots. And sometimes, even locals could use a little inspiration. That’s why [The Brigade](http://thisisthebrigade.com "The Brigade") has built a little side project that’s an easily accessible guide to their [favorite spots in Portland](http://thefieldguide.thisisthebrigade.com/ "The Field Guide").

And of course, it’s best viewed on mobile—for when you’re out and about.

Take a few minutes to dig through the field guide to find places to eat, adventure, drink, grab coffee, shop, or sleep.
