Where to begin. An hour of waiting just to get a table, another hour before being served and finally having the chance to eat. The mandatory tip, of course. And to top it all off, getting sick an hour later. I assume it was due to a lack of hygiene.

This place is amazing!!! We've been going here for close to 15 years and we've never had a bad meal. The Broder board is delicious and the different varieties of lefse are fantastic. It can be a little bit of a wait to sit down, but it's absolutely worth it. We will be back for sure.

Awful wait time. Waited for over an hour with empty seats and tables waiting to be cleaned. I left after an hour. Don't waste your time. Super slow staff

What a find. Never had Swedish breakfast before, thoroughly enjoyed it. Had Lost Eggs, 2-egg breakfast with shrooms and sausage, side of potato pancake. Everything delish. Hot coffee served with a little pot of hot cream!! Yessss. Coffee doesn’t get cold!! Would return again for sure with more people so we can share the Swedish pancakes for dessert!
Vegetarian options: Mushrooms, side salad, eggs with spinach, trout for pescatarians. Really nice options for no-meat breakfast.
Wheelchair accessibility: Small place, narrow, probably not easily wheelchair accessible inside

Broder Café is a must-visit brunch place in Portland! The cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious food make it worth the wait. Their Swedish pancakes are light and fluffy, and the baked eggs are packed with rich flavors.

I love this place <3 The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, noise and tight seating considered. The food is fresh and delicious, truly the ultimate comfort food experience. The service is unmatched, staff here are friendly and helpful. Who doesn’t enjoy being around positive people? Not me! As a typically savory eater, I branched out today and tried the pancakes. They were hot and fluffy with an herby essence to them. The jam & curd were just as lovely. The Nordic bread served with savory breakfast is absolutely amazing flavor and texture wise.
Vegetarian options: The potato hash with asparagus, oyster mushrooms, & leeks will not disappoint. It is topped with egg.

While I was sitting there it was impossible to talk to the other person next to me on the table because few of the workers kept talking loudly and the guy wearing white baseball hat was REALLY loud. There were barely any people in the cafe and I could barely hear myself speak.
Delicious Swedish food! I got the Swedish hash with trout and it was fantastic. The cake ball things are a must when coming here. They come out warm with a custard and a jam on the side. Servers are really sweet and friendly

I have been here many times. Everything was good. Especially the pickles. I love Swedish food. My sandwich was unusually undersalted last weekend. That’s not normal there, and it was easily resolved with table salt. Waiting an hour for a table is always part of the Broder experience. The coffee while waiting makes it worth it.

Absolutely wonderful place. Will make a point to visit every time I'm in Portland! I had the Lefse and Danish Pancakes with Lemon Curd and Lingonberry Jam with a cup of coffee! All of it was phenomenal.

The food here was exceptional, as was the coffee. Truly the platonic ideal of a brunch spot. Cozy, full of character, and with exceptionally friendly service.
It can take a very long time to get a table, and you will need to hang around outside to make sure you are there when your name is called. So, be prepared to bundle up and maybe walk around the neighborhood a bit.
This is really the only drawback of an otherwise extraordinarily good experience. It's worth the wait.
