9 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Portland

“Great brunch spot. The mimosas were delicious. Food was great! I recommend the huevos Ocotillo and Clark Street Eggs Benedict. Churros were an awesome choice for dessert! Busy atmosphere and super friendly and helpful bartender. We will definitely be back.“

“Avocado Toast, hash browns, yummy pastries“

“Cafe Nom nails the balance of comforting food and a welcoming, no-frills vibe. The Eggs Panagura were a standout—rich and creamy from the whipped feta, with perfectly poached eggs. The shakshuka came highly recommended and absolutely delivered—flavorful, hearty, and satisfying.

The space feels like a true neighborhood staple: warm, casual, and buzzing with energy. We walked in without a reservation and were seated quickly despite a decent crowd. Service was friendly and efficient, with dishes arriving fast. We didn’t try the mimosa flight, but it definitely caught our eye—next time.“

“Yummy! Friendly people. Loved the cornbread.“

“Amazing pancakes, so soft and fluffy!“

“I would just like to tell a very short story about how my friend Rex who is 65 years old he is a homeless man out of the Portland area. I took him in to Denny's in Portland to get breakfast on a cold Winter's day in January 2022. We ordered our food with our server who was very rude and after eating our cold yucky breakfast my friend Rex was refused a bathroom to use and then the manager came out and told us for NO REASON, to leave and never come back! It was the worst experience because all my friend Rex needed was a hot breakfast he doesn't bother anyone and never sticks up for himself or creates a fuss! So in looking for another breakfast place to eat we found IHOP in Portland and from the start of walking into that restaurant was so nice and clean the hostess was amazing and sat us immediately with a smile our server Bethany she was amazing so nice and kind she took our order and treated us like human beings she was not judgmental and she took our order the same way she takes everyone's orders with a smile and gracious heart! My friend Rex absolutely loves his fried eggs and his bacon so we now visit the Portland IHOP twice a week. I had told the servers about what had happened to us with our experience at Denny's and the server from IHOP told Rex and myself that we were allowed at IHOP anytime and that they would love to have us!! I can't even tell you how much this warms my heart knowing that I can take my friend who has fallen on some hard times into a restaurant to eat a very nice warm meal and have the best servers in the best wait staff around us! You are amazing IHOP and we love you so much! We will be there every Tuesday and Friday for bacon and eggs comforted by the graciousness and smiles of everyone in the restaurant at IHOP! Keep on being the most amazing restaurant in the world because from my point of view you absolutely are! We love you IHOP thank you so much for your hospitality!“

“without question the best breakfast sandwich I ever had. honey ham egg and habanero bacon jam with Gouda on a jalapeno cheddar biscuit.... 🥳“

“My daughter found this place online and we met her here recently for a Sunday brunch date. It was clean and spacious and our waitress was very attentive. We had coffees in front of us within a few minutes of being seated and once we ordered it arrived very promptly. I enjoyed my breakfast sandwich as did my daughter. It’s a little on the pricy side but I don’t mind when the place is nice and the service is good. Would definitely eat here again.“
