Carl FigueiredoAugust 7, 2016The brunch here is off-the-chain..so good. Cocktails, eggs, French toast, etc. That being said, getting a seat here on the weekend requires the patience of a monk. Brunch is a bloodsport in Portland.
Nick SawyerSeptember 9, 2017The food was amazing, the staff was excellent, and they're super kid-friendly, with their own place settings and even a play area!
Joyce O.December 4, 2014Incredible French toast, and mason jar drinks that will knock you on your big ol' toosh! Their menu is diverse and caters to all the veggie fanatics and meat eating carnivores.
Aimée Jane ParrAugust 12, 2018Breakfast/Brunch menu was amazing, with vegetarian and vegan options to choose from. Good size portions, unlimited coffee! Would definitely go back! Tip: get there for opening as there is often a que!
Mary Ann SullivanMay 29, 2021The Maddie Pancakes are delicious. If you order the full, come with an appetite. Service is excellent. They take reservations due to limited seating. Go to their website to make reservations.Thanks.
Marion DavisFebruary 22, 2016A 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!
Megan McVeyAugust 2, 2013Cannot say enough good things about this place! Amazing wait staff, extremely reasonable prices, double thumbs up for food. Highly, highly recommend.
Brook ShelleyJanuary 4, 2015The portions at brunch are large, and the food is delicious. Hang out and drink coffee outside and the line goes pretty quick. Get a bottle of champagne/mimosa kit for 16 bucks.
Christopher CoffeeJuly 4, 2012Amazing find. The Sasquatch with jack cheese and the spicy pork sausage has a nice kick. The sourdough toast is so tasty you won't want butter. The Dirty Harry in the Big Bertha glass hits the spot!!- Serious EatsDecember 20, 2013One of the most popular brunch spots in town, for good reason. Get the corned beef hash and wash it down with a Bloody Mary.
Max Blue 🚴🍔November 21, 2014best breakfast in a long time. You can't go wrong with any savoury dish just don't forget to order the blueberry pancake on the side!- Nicole MaroneAugust 3, 2016The loaded bowl was so good! I added bacon and avocado to it, and it was everything I could've wanted. Also, try the lavender mimosa.
Kid friendly, good food, and nice servers. Great place to eat if you can get there before the "brunch rush".
Tami McNabbJanuary 2, 2015Had the Maddie Cakes and they were tasty! They were out of the Corn Beef Hash much to my husbands dismay. The Brian's Hash was a bit hot but good.
The hashes are amazing. Get a cocktail in the "Big Bertha" size. It's cheaper than buying two regular sized ones!
Iris WillowMay 25, 2014Get the Sassy Mary! The smoked salmon bene is awesome and the corned beef hash was yummy too!- cami j.April 5, 2017the maddie cakes are amazing, and they poach their eggs perfectly! super friendly staff and expansive menu!
Hemant JJanuary 5, 2015Bella sunrise is an awesome savory breakfast dish! Have one of the awesome mimosas with that!
- Christopher CoffeeJuly 9, 2012The Smith & Wesson is AWESOME. I'm guessing they call it the Smith and Wesson because you taste the Bang before you feel the bullet.
Arash NarchiOctober 24, 2015Oatmeal chai blueberry vegan pancakes were delicious but huge portion. This place is awesome for breakfast
Jason HillardAugust 21, 2011apparently this is a great breakfast place, but i came at night. great drinks, mixed with awesome hip hop on the overhead speakers. chilled out vide, but bobbin my head. dig it
Lots of great food on the menu, you'll be happy with anything. Order one Maddie Cake as a side to share.
HavaJanuary 1, 2014Great food! Does a good job of catering to larger groups and groups with kids. There's even a little play area.
Kyle K.June 17, 2014Good little breakfast joint! Staff was very friendly (even when there was an issue) and food was very good!
Roman AroNovember 29, 2014Huge portions here! You gotta get Ty's big breakfast (vegetarian) ! Also had the gluten free waffles.. Noms!
Gehlen ExumMay 15, 2017My go to is the Loaded Bowl with a scrambled egg. Just sampled a Maddie Cake, which was delightful!
Nicole KastenMay 12, 2017The spicy bloody Mary's are great. Order whatever the special is. Super vegan friendly.
Andrew DeVigalOctober 21, 2012If you have a little one with you, get a table near the staged off play area for them. Super thoughtful convenience. The food is also Jammin'.
Kevin MaguireSeptember 14, 2015Wow. Go with someone you love, and grab the corned beef hash and Maddie Cakes. Swap plates halfway through. 💞
Christian BakerDecember 31, 2014Best savory vegetarian breakfast options in all of SE, and possibly the whole city.- Brook ShelleyOctober 5, 2014Delicious salmon scramble. One of the best breakfasts I've had in Portland
Vegan oatmeal chai pancakes, Ty's big breakfast, Maddie Cakes, Large Mimosas!
Shannon ZMarch 31, 2015Lots of vegan, vegetarian& gluten free choices. The Bloody Mary looked amazing.
SaraOctober 28, 2013The corn beef is awesome the sand which was the best! If I didn't have to drive I probably would've had the big Bertha
If you get the (incredible) Lemon-Ricotta Pancakes, the blueberries WILL turn your teeth blue! Fair warning if you have a date or business meeting afterwards!
Jason XJanuary 5, 2014Excellent fruit cups. Vegetarian sausage gravy. Aardvark sauce!! Friendly staff.
Vegan blueberry chai pancakes are incredible! Very, very filling and delicious
WhyGo TravelDecember 8, 2011Order Ty's Big Breakfast, Lemon Ricotta pancakes, or the Loaded Bowl. (& Little Jam is cozier than the newer Big Jam for seating) Read more
Ankur NaikAugust 4, 2012"You will not be seated until everyone in your party has arrived. Thank you." (it's worth the wait)
