Unfortunately I just had some inedible eggs Benedict here. I just returned from an extended trip, and specifically looked forward to getting back to eat at Big Blue, so it's a shame. In the past they were great, but maybe something changed, or maybe I just got unlucky

A cozy place to get breakfast or lunch, or even just a great sweet Oregon Chai Tea... great food at a good price, and seasonal specials. I've enjoyed every meal I've had here!!

First time diner, the food was good, no complaints, the service was very slow, place wasn't busy at all, half the tables were empty. From the time we were seated til we got our food was an hour and 17 minutes. Like I said food was good, but not good enough to justify the wait.

Love this place, love the menu. The entitled server I encountered could use a reality check. If waters or coffees never get filled and there is no check back check down to make sure breakfast was OK then what kind of server are you? Additionally, when something is actually wrong with breakfast and this happens, now it turns a 30-45 minute breakfast into an hour and a half and NO ONE appreciates being charged for that inconvenience. Please consider hiring more experienced staff it was clear this was an entitled college student. It takes eggs a minute and 30 seconds to die in the window. So if something was wrong with the order to begin with, and then it takes you 20 minutes and a physical cue for me to flag you(the server) down to correct it, how do you think breakfast went??? And why would you expect me to pay for YOUR mistake?????
Not okay.

Food was great. Would definitely be back for that aspect alone. However; service was super slow/ a lot of open/empty seats yet we stood in the door for 10 minutes, then waited another 5 to be sat. Another 15 minutes for them to take our order. After we ate, it took another 30 minutes after they cleared our table to get our check…
2 male servers were standing around while the lady busted her behind doing everything..

Fantastic breakfast! Was more food than we could finish really. My husband got a burrito and I got the Big Blue Breakfast and skillet potatoes. The service was great too and as a constantly dehydrated pregnant woman I greatly appreciated that the hostess immediately sat us with waters. We will definitely be returning!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Hands down best breakfast place I had. I got the Karen potatoes with no cheese. The potatoes where crispy, eggs were perfect, staff was friendly and attentive (even though it was super busy). The ice tea was so good too. Anyone who knows me knows I'm picky on ice tea and this one was fantastic. It tasted like maybe a chi tea. Very good. If I lived by here, I would be there every weekend.

I enjoyed everything here. Aubrey was a really nice server. The food was great and they put walnuts in the pancake upon request which was great. Best of all they offer real maple syrup if you ask for it and real butter, two things I really appreciate.

Everything was amazing!! I had their croissant breakfast sandwich andI think it was the best croissant I have ever had! Others had biscuits and gravy and traditional breakfasts and they were also perfectly delicious! Fast service, super friendly, great atmosphere!
