13Kure, Just Kure
The West End restaurant is known as Kure, not Kure Juice Bar, and will develop its own identity independent of the three juice bars across the city. “This vision for Kure has been around from the inception of the business,” explains Higgins, “and the plan had always been to launch a separate concept entirely rather than adapt the existing Kure Juice Bar model. Since signing our lease at SW Stark a year and a half ago, and with the neighborhood growing so quickly around us, we realized this was the perfect time and place to deliver our fully realized concept to the city.”

Stay tuned to the Balance for menu updates—we’ll be the first to share hot, healthy details on new openings around Portland.
Just in time to balance the culinary debauchery of Feast Portland’s epic four-day food festival, the health nuts at Kure’s West End location have turned on the neon “Juice Here Now” lights and set out fresh-from-the-printer hot macro bowl and salad menus. After nine months of waiting, Kure’s first full restaurant is here—complete with seating. We popped in for their opening hour to scope out the new space and join the army of living Socality Barbies itching to get the perfect Instagram shot of their morning smoothie bowl. (Full disclosure, I totally Instagrammed my smoothie bowl this morning. #liveauthentic). Click through the slide show above to check out new menu items, and head over to 408 SW 12th Ave. to try it out for yourself, no hashtagging required.
