Always a good breakfast stop. Nothing out of the ordinary but always consistent and good. I have been going to this location for over 20 years and though it used to be better it never disappoints. My favorite is the German pancake! read more

Yummm! Delicious food! Friendly service! For the convenience and the prices, this is a great place to stop for an early morning breakfast!

This place is so friggin' cool. Me & my wife love it. Fast, fun & friendly. An efficient well oiled machine. The definitive epitome of delicious northwest brunch, highly recommend. read more

Service and food is always great! My only nit pick is the lingonberry crepes they are tasty but for the love of the sweet baby Jesus please stop mixing the lingonberries with the butter and it shouldn't be cold!! Cold butter mixed with he berries is gross and even warned up its too much butter...yuck!! Separate those delicious ingredients read more

Typical chain restaurant, other words, glorified Denny's. The waiting staff is inconsiderate and snobbish. Our waitress served my German pancake 10 minutes before our food, she was shocked to find out that I've never had this enormous chewy flab of half-cooked dough they called German pancakes. My daughter ordered crepes with fresh strawberries, in fact they offer a side of fresh strawberries with everything. When her dish arrived, there were mushy, cooked giant strawberries that had a consistency of wet cotton balls. We had to pick them all out, the kid was disgusted. Well, eggs were OK, I'll give them that. read more

This place reminds me of a Denny's. It was clean and the service was good. It had average food with a big variety. I was hoping for something more original. I didn't realize it was a chain. read more

We frequent this place on a regular basis and are impressed by the fact they try and use local produce and foods from the PNW! Keep it local! They are always willing to accommodate any dietary needs! read more

Has always been a good go-to place for a good meal. I've had a friend work here so I was coming quite a bit until she left. Food was always good and the place is bright and friendly looking. It's a bit pricey for a breakfast place but it's always been tasty. I go in expecting something and I don't leave disappointed. I LOVE the prime rib and bleu steak meal, I can never really get anything else. Never been let down and service is decent. read more

I LOVE this restaurant! We came in and were very pleased with how incredibly sweet the waitresses were! Everybody is smiling and bubbly! Not only that, but our food came very quickly. I was a bit nervous because of how fast it was cooked but omg everything was so fresh and delicious, I gobbled everything right up! Also, we never had to flag a waitress down ONCE. They were so very attentive and on top of everything, even during the lunch rush. The environment is clean and cozy and I was just thoroughly impressed and pleased with everything. This is now our new favorite breakfast/brunch place :) read more

I was in Portland for a Rainshadow Running race. Always looking for a good breakfast the morning after a race. Elmers selection was great, had the "Looking for the sun" omelet, was really tasty. The coffee was good to, after drinking airport coffee, this was a very welcomed cup of joe. Service was great and very friendly. Check Elmers out if you are in the Troutdale area. read more

A few years ago I would have left a very different review. Ladies in here are always super sweet and professional. Food is amazing and the ambiance is very cozy and relaxing. Try it out :) read more

We booked a reservation for a group party at this specific Elmer's. We thought it would be a great idea and give this place a try. Unfortunately, it did not turn out the way we were expecting. Number one issue was how the staff treated us on the day of. Meals were served late, were told one thing and then another. Poor customer service and communication. If we were only treated well as customers, our experience and this review might have been different. It's unfortunate, but we would rather go somewhere else the next time we are in the area than be treated that way ever again! read more

I love elmers it is right down from my apartment. The rock salt prime rib on their dinner menu is the bomb, and there is always enough to home with me, I love leftovers. The staff is always friendly and happy to see me and very helpful. If I don't have time to dine in for some reason I can get it to go and my dinner is just as good if I was to dine in. I recommend this place to anyone it gets 5 stars in my book read more

it's not too common to stop into a restaurant on the road not knowing what to expect, hoping for the best. elmer's was our best breakfast choice this roadtrip! hubby's denver omelette was the best he's had in a long time. fresh and plentiful ingredients, perfect hash browns. my breakfast sandwich was perfectly cooked. and to top it all off, chelsea, our server just made my day totally. her smile and happy attitude was wo contagious. we'll be keeping our eye out for elmer's whenever we travel! read more

Elmer's is one of the best in their field. Their consistency is their absolute strength. I have never been dazzled by the menu but have never been disappointed. Every thing on the menu is tasty, I enjoy the atmosphere and the friendly fast service. read more

A local chain like ihop but I guess it still maintains its touch. German pancakes were great - make sure you squeeze those lemon wedges for that extra tasty bite. Other items were ok and wait time a bit longer than typical. read more

Compared to the other breakfast restaurants in the area, this one felt very comfortable, clean and offered great customer service. I would have given this place another star if it were not for the dried food found encrusted on my spoon. read more

Group of 13 of us went in for breakfast. Called ahead to reserve seats. 30 mins later went in and tables were ready. We had two waitresses assisting us with orders and such. First time and it was a great experience. Thank you! read more

We came for breakfast. It was wonderful! The Marionberry crepes are the best!!! Great atmosphere, not too loud. Seated immediately.

Took forever to get order. Took forever to bring food out. Sad day. They need help or a clue. From reno and would rather eat at dennys for petes sake. read more

Clean, friendly service, and great local photography. However the food is just average fare. Large chain restaurant style menu with no fresh ingredients just Sysco. read more

Delicious! First time here, and the wait staff was very inviting, courteous, and friendly. The food was great, and my kids loved it! Coffee at 4pm was fresh, the fruit was fresh, and the fries were deliciously crispy. read more

We stopped in on our way back from Mt. Hood and were quickly seated. The hostess was very accommodating and allowed us to have a booth that was just being turned, we really appreciated that. The service was wonderfully quick, the food was delicious. Angie is a great waitress! Thanks for the suggestion to get the cinnamon pancakes, my husband stole them from my plate! read more

Still one of the best places to eat breakfast ever! A choicy menu with decent portion sizes. More than one thing that's really good.

I come in here at least once a week with my ol man and I love it. Service is always good and everyone is always so friendly. Definitely got that home style feeling as opposed to a generic breakfast joint. They stay pretty busy too and I notice there are regulars that come in so they are doing something right! read more

Boo Elmer's to you again! Went there tonight for dinner, got seated in the north side directly behind the kitchen....waited....waited...10 mins later left bc no one came and took our order, drinks, water anything. Just sat there. Waited .....nada read more

Fabulous breakfast. Exceptional service. Fresh ingredients all make for a great start for our day!

I wasn't impressed , over priced version of a Denny's style restaurant. To give them credit, we had a 1 year old child w/us & they were very accommodating. Also, that was the 1 & only time I've gone, so maybe it does deserve a second chance. Maybe. read more

Just went to Elmer's yesterday with a friend. Had a wonderful small portion (not going to say Senior) Chicken Fried Steak and the wonderful waitress Brenda got my order just perfect. I did not want to yummy biscuit or hash browns but she offered me fruit instead. Thank you Brenda for a wonderful breakfast read more

Get the Tillamook Cheddar potato pancakes!! The chef knows what he's doing. The waitstaff was very friendly!

I'm eating here right now! The service here is amazing and the staff is so sweet! Even now I can here the staff laughing in the back (even as they get all their work done, and make sure all their customers are happy), and it just makes me think what a happy place it is to be here, and it looks like such a nice place to have a job! I love it here! read more

I don't understand how this place has good reviews, I'm seriously amazed. I'm going to start by saying the customer service was awful our waitress didn't even greeted us even after waiting for 20min for her to take our order. After her taking our order it still took 20min plus to get our food. FYI it wasn't that busy. Our food was horrible I ordered a Denver & Tillamook omelet which was horrible, it was cold & the cheese wasn't even melted which makes me think it was sitting there for a while. My husbands food was the same way he ordered a skillet & it was slightly warm the veggies weren't even cooked right. Also my toast was literally falling apart. & for the icing on the cake my husband was never offered a refill on his lemonade. The waitress never actually came back to check how we were doing. Normally I don't post reviews but this time the customer service was seriously the worst. read more

We love going to Elmer's for breakfast. Haven't been any other time, so far. The food is really good. They have fresh squeezed OJ, and the bacon is good too. They have lots of options and 2 fireplaces; and they have tables and booths for seating options. 2 thumbs up. Sometimes the service is a titchy bit slow but nothing to make a huge deal over. read more

I've been going here since I was very young and even through ownership changes Elmers remains one of the best breakfast houses around. Lunch and dinner plates are pretty good too but this is a very good place to eat breakfast. It's always very clean with nice service and excellent food. Great for families with a comfortable atmosphere. read more

This Elmers has good food and amazing customer service. As I walked up to the door the manager opened up the door and greeted me. Who does that anymore? The servers are cheerful and fast bringing my order and the food tastes fresh. read more

I love elmers! My Mom growing up always made the best german pancakes and Elmer's makes the ones closest to my Mom's. Its hard for me not to order the German pancake and bacon but when I do I have not been disappointed. read more

Extraordinary service. No wonder they've been around so long. Great food quality. Anticipated my needs on where we wanted to sit and welcomed us to a quiet corner where I needed to get some work done. Really outstanding customer service. read more

My husband and I have eaten here a few times and every time it has been exceptional. This is our new go to place - especially for breakfast

Visiting Oregon for the first time and this was a very pleasant breakfast experience. Alberta greeted us with fresh coffee promptly and our server, Lindsey was as sweet as could be. The manager stopped by to deliver the German pancake, chatted pleasantly and thanked us for coming in. We mentioned that everyone working there seemed to be enjoying themselves and were very happy. Keep it up, Elmer's! You have fans from Pennsylvania! read more

I enjoy going to this particular Elmer's. When I do go here the place is always clean, the staff friendly, etc. I went to this restaurant earlier today. They were rather busy, but from the moment we ordered our meal, roughly ten minutes later they brought it to us. I was rather impressed with quick service and even mentioned about that to them. The prices are reasonable, atmosphere great. The really only reason I did four stars instead of 5 is I hate that parking they have outside. Parking so close to the entrance, I just fear the day somebody mistakes a gear/pedal and ends up putting their vehicle inside of the restaurant. I wish they would redesign the parking or at least put up those steel post barriers a lot of other businesses have. That'd help prevent cars from crashing inside of the business read more
