Maybe you’re taking a spin through Hell’s Canyon. Maybe you’re rafting the Deschutes. Maybe you’ve taken it upon yourself to see the Seven Wonders of Oregon. Or visit the newly restored historical lighthouses along the coast. 

Wherever the road takes you, you know that Oregon has your back. Whether your road trip is all about the food, or gourmet sustenance takes a back seat to family fun, there are plenty of places to eat around the state where you can feel happy knowing that you're not only getting a delicious meal, but also effecting positive change for the environment.

These road food destinations—suggested by the Oregon Environmental Council—know that sustainability is important to Oregon, so they’ve made it a priority. Whether that’s working with farmers to get fresh, local produce, meats, and cheeses, growing their own food, reducing their waste by recycling and composting, keeping their menus seasonal to reduce food travel, supporting non-profits that promote sustainable agricultural practices, or even building their restaurants from salvaged, recycled materials, these eateries are worthy of keeping your road trip fueled.
