Outstanding espresso drinks! If you're unsure of which espresso to order (they have a rotating menu of two options), ask the barista for a recommendation with your preferences and tastes in mind. Yum!
This shop is chill and makes outstanding espresso drinks. One of the more laid-back places in PDX. Best of all, it's down the street from Screen Door, one of the best brunch places in Portland.
Get there earlyish and grab an Oregon Croissant while they're warm. It's better than a croissant should be allowed to be.
Family fun for the young or young at heart. Watch a movie on the cheap and play nickel arcade games to your hearts content. This is the kind of place you hope will always be around for generations.
It's a no-frills place that serves beer on tap and has broken-down midcentury theater seating. Read more.
Great beer, amazing burgers, supreme tater-tots. A little theater and pub with cheap movies and a good menu
A long wait is expected here. This is wildly popular for breakfast and everything I've had is great. Order your breakfast with confidence, it will be delicious.
A lot of food (one meal = 2). Great vegetarian options. Nice atmosphere. Just wish we didn't get the seats near the restrooms. Will come back to try the cocktails!
Classic DELICIOUS diner food! So many egg combinations, pancake options, etc. They nail breakfast faves and quality.
Get the Aebleskiver (Danish pancakes) and you will never want another taste in your mouth again. Pro tip: The half order isn't on the menu and comes with 4.
Scones, the various omelettes, and German pancakes highlight the menu for this very tasty cafe! I make sure to visit every time I'm in PDX.
Eat with hands. It adds to experience no matter how messy it gets. There's something satisfying about licking the gravy off your fingertips
Try the things they bake. For a bakery, they really emphasize the baking they do.
Very tasty biscuit sandwiches. Also a vegetarian option for biscuits and gravy.
I'll admit - I scoffed at the concept at first. Then I had their offerings and, wow, there is definitely a noticeable difference from the average froyo joint. Everything here is great.
Sunday Brunch is incredible. Treat yourself a pumpkin cinnamon roll on the way out if it's available.
This is my favorite Portland restaurant. I highly recommend the raw live nachos, the walnut lentil burger, the tacos plate, and the fig and Brie sandwich! The food here has gorgeously complex flavors.
$7 for 6 flavors flight! They have vegan ice cream and make waffle cones in front of you
Ice cream cookies is the fad but their home made cone waffles is where it's at. Walk anywhere on Mississippi and get a whiff to realize that Ruby Jewel must be around the corner!
