I ordered a caramel macchiato (like Starbucks lol) and it was soooo much better then Starbucks. A ton of caramel! So delicious. I also ordered the American standby. Usually I stay away from ordering breakfast at places because there's always something that isn't cooked the way I like it ie. Potatoes or bacon aren't really crispy or the eggs are overcooked. EVERYTHING was perfect. The homemade hot sauces are incredibly flavorful with a spicy kick. The strawberry jam has such a bright spring time taste. Customer service was top notch! Can't wait to go back when I've got time to sit and enjoy the view of the neighborhood out of the windows.

I had never been here before today, but I'm so glad I stumbled upon this spot!I was looking for a place to study with REAL food and internet available. Google reviews didn't give me any information about study potential, but I decided to take a chance and this place didn't disappoint! A few things I was impressed by:- fresh squeezed orange juice on their menu! Yes, please!!- Internet available and outlets for charging computers- Great study environment, or place to meet friends for brunch if that's what you're going for- Kind staff!- Delicious foodThis place is so cute and I'll definitely be coming back!

Great location, great idea, just never hits. Food always comes out cold like I’m eating at a cafeteria, plus the prices are outrageous for the portion sizes.

This breakfast establishment is the greatest in our neighborhood. I've gone there countless times and each time the food is amazing and the staff is always kind. Happy to have discovered this spot.

Let's start with the good. The pancakes, jam, and housemate potatoes are amazing. Atmosphere is super cute.It's a order then seat yourself situation which was great as well.The negative : a very talkative gentleman who kind of interrupts with a few jokes, but doesn't seem to communicate the order correctly to the chef. Adding an ingredient to the sandwich despite asking for it on the side.Otherwise the experience was really great.

Breakfast had 3 requirements: big ol’ portions, open by 8:30, and transit-friendly near Gateway Transit Center. Got the nutritious and filling breakfast I needed to fuel a day at Multnomah Falls. Thank you so much for the delicious special scramble and the electric macchiato. Everything I needed and wanted from an early breakfast spot. Portland nails it again.

I had a delicious latte here and the Mediterranean omelette was large and worth the $$. Busy on a Sunday morning but the friendly baristas kept the line moving. Would return just for the

Lovely little breakfast/lunch, Cafe. The food was good quality and well presented. The coffee Stumptown had to purchase but was serve yourself, which I love. They also had espresso drinks, my daughter (happy birthday petal) had one, and I was very happy with it. I would highly recommend this place!

Our first time eating here and we ordered breakfast, we both ordered the sausage scramble, potatoes, and biscuit and coffee. The food was delicious and the coffee was extraordinary. We will definitely be eating here again.

Very neat and fun brunch spot. The scrambles all look so good and the Mediterranean Scramble was delicious. Also tried the Bacon Latte, which was a tasty and interesting drink - almost like a buttery latte, sweeter than a usual latte but also savory flavor.
