Good morning from the unofficial welcome center to Mt. Hood…read more If you're heading into the mountains, this small-town coffee shop is the perfect place to fuel up which is exactly what we did. They proudly serve K&F Coffee, and I swear these lattes taste extra heavenly thanks to the local mountain water. Our breakfast bagels hit every spot, and the baristas are friendly and clearly know their craft. It's everything you want before a day of mountain adventures.

I stopped in on St. Patrick's Day. I didn't realize it was a holiday, but once I saw all of their "green" specials, I realized. The young woman behind the counter let me add a cold foam topping to my regular coffee. The coffee was large, and cheap, and tasted good. What more do you want?

I was in the middle of placing an order and they turned off the online ordering. When I walk in to place an order service is slow and takes a long time.

Killer service, a crazy…read moregood selection of bagel varieties and a warm inviting space to chill out in made my meal here all the better. I got the Todd, which is a breakfast bagel with egg, tomato, feta and an avocado spread, and that turned out to be a solid, filling meal in and of itself. Ok, sure, the tomato was small and a bit tough, the 'avocado spread' was right out of a tube and the 'egg' was a pre-fab slice of protein, but it all came together nicely on my toasted onion bagel. There was a line but the woman taking my order was awesome, patient and on top of things. Didn't think I'd hang out too long but the vibe with the fireplace and big windows made me linger in the cafe style space, which was pretty flush with what felt like locals. Cool. I guess this was an old Rexall drugstore, and they've kept some old elements intact which makes it even cooler. Thumbs up.

Bernstein's Bagels is more than an eatery - it's a community. We liked the food and the experience…read moreso much that we came here two days in a row for breakfast. Bernstein's is a popular spot - having arrived at the opening time we felt lucky to secure a table. Here is what we ordered: bagel and lox, garden bagel and raisin smear bagel; as well as coffee. Everything was so good that even the picky eater amongst us had no complaints. We also enjoyed conversing with other patrons at Bernstein's. Having quickly deciphered that we are visiting from out of town (probably by overhearing us talk - the tables are very close together) they immediately made us feel welcome and recommended places to visit around Portland. We usually don't talk to strangers, so being pulled into a friendly conversation was a different kind of experience for us, but the one that we enjoyed with gratitude. Overall, this a great breakfast spot!

We happened to find this spot along the way, and the bagels looked really promising, so we had to stop. We grabbed some plain bagels, which were tasty and good flavor. I also ordered a bagel with egg, but that one kind of threw me off. I'm not a fan of spongy eggs--they always feel a little fake to me . That said, I was hungry, so I still ate it. Overall, it was a good stop and definitely satisfied our bagel craving before hitting the road. I'd come back for the plain bagels, just maybe skip the egg next time.

Stopped by this Le Petit Cafe counter inside of Troutdale Station recently…read more Troutdale Station is a food cart mall with about twenty food carts, a huge parking lot, and a central brick and mortar building with counters for drinks and snacks. One of said counters is a mini Le Petit Cafe. I ordered a marionberry macaron, and, wow. It's a serious contender for a new favorite. The cookie was crisp, light, and a bit airy. The dust on the shell was sour, while the creme filling was sweet. This gave eating it a similar experience to eating a freshly picked blackberry. Certainly one of the most creative macarons I've ever tried. It was a whole experience. I guess it was my lucky day, because as I was ordering, the Barista asked me if I wanted a complimentary coffee drink that had been made by accident. I don't even remember what it was called, but it was amazing. I think it was some kind of vanilla latte. I came back on a second occasion and ordered a 12 ounce caramel latte with a pistachio macaron. I loved the latte, but this time, the macaron was bad. It was so stale that I considered asking for a different flavor. Overall I loved the coffee but found everything to be a little high priced based on the quality. I would still stop by here for a coffee in the future because Troutdale Station has free wifi for customers, and this is the best coffee spot there that I know of.

Fernie's Coffee & ZigZag 4 Stars…read more Headed up toward Mt. Hood, I swung into Fernie's Coffee & ZigZag on a cold mountain morning, chasing a memory more than a meal. Back in the day when this place went by a different name and the vibe was more Hoppin' they made some of the greatest biscuits and gravy around. Legendary stuff. So naturally, I had to try it again. Good news: it didn't disappoint. I won't swear it's as good as the original incarnation (time has a way of polishing memories), but it's a solid second-best, and that's saying something. The biscuits were hearty, the gravy did its job, and I left full and ready for the road. The coffee? Decent. It'll wake you up, won't change your life, but it'll get you to Timberline without falling asleep at the wheel. That said, the place feels like a ghost of its former self. Sad to see the market closed that part stings a little. The building still holds the echoes of what it used to be, and you can almost feel the history lingering in the corners. Service-wise, there was a moment. The lady at the counter was BS-ing with some guy at the window for a solid five minutes or maybe he was just standing there, staring into the void but either way, I was ready to order. That little pause cost them a star. Still, for the price, the convenience, and the fact that I was in and out with no line while heading up the mountain, it earns four stars. It's good, it's familiar, it's just missing something. If they ever find it again, this place could really shine.
