Great atmosphere with genuine and friendly staff. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in Portland!
May 2026 - We were lucky to get seated on a shared table with a beautiful family - very short wait. We ordered the Seafood Rolls Trio and the Rowan breakfast sandwich.

Cafe Rowan offers a cozy atmosphere with good decor and clean surroundings, making it a great spot for families and large groups. The menu goes beyond sandwiches and burritos, featuring unique dishes like the highly recommended crab eggs Benedict, Jamon eggs Benedict, and a must-try lobster roll, which is imported from Boston with lobster from Maine. The food is delicious and elevated, showing great attention to detail. The place is self-serve and perfect for those with dietary restrictions, as the staff is accommodating in adjusting ingredients. The banana foster french toast is considered by some to be the best in Portland, while the harvest breakfast burrito is a favorite for takeout. The mortadello sandwich is also a daily special that has received praise for being crispy and juicy. Although parking can be limited, it's easy to find street parking nearby. The restaurant is ADA accessible, with ramps and wide pathways, although it may be challenging during peak service. Cafe Rowan is worth a revisit for its delicious food, unique dishes like the crab Benedict and truffle-topped Jamon Benedict, and unbeatable service.
