Cute/ TINY breakfast spot. Lots of local art on the wall which I absolutely love about Portland. Local coffee roasters as well- spicy Bloody Mary is spicy doesn't always work that way. Service was decent, $60 for breakfast for two only one alcoholic beverage. read more

I had such a lovely time on my birthday morning here. The vegetable skillet with poached eggs on top was amazing!

Our first visit was a wonderful experience. The staff at Little Griddle greeted us warmly and openly, instantly creating a friendly atmosphere for a great meal. Although the space is small, it feels cozy and intimate rather than crowded, which adds to its charm. The menu offers a wide variety of tasty options, with each dish thoughtfully made using fresh, high-quality ingredients. We added our name to the waitlist beforehand, helping us skip a long wait. The restaurant's small size and vintage decor evoke classic Portlandia charm. We're excited to go back and try more dishes from their menu. The pancake was delicious and super soft--must try! read more

I went to Little Griddle in Portland for brunch after spending the morning at the hospital with a friend having surgery. There was a bit of a wait (which was fine, given the small interior) but the place looks very cozy inside. I was seated and given a menu, and it was nice to see the art and plants all around, which gave the space a very welcoming vibe. I ordered a plate that had potatoes, eggs any way you wanted, some sausage and a biscuit. The potatoes were flavorful and my egg was cooked perfectly. The biscuit was interesting. I'm from the south and I had never had a biscuit quite like it. It was golden, but almost like it had been pan fried on the outside, or cooked in a salamander. It was delicious, but not flaky. That's not a critique, just it was very different than any other biscuit I had eaten before. The servers were very nice, and the coffee very good. I'd certainly come back! It's good to plan to spend a bit of time here tho. Between the parking (street only, and limited), and limited seating, there is often a wait. read more

Solid breakfast spot! Small space - not great for big groups - likely a wait, even for a party of two. It's been around a while, but this was my first visit. I left satisfied! The huevos benedictos were phenomenal!!! Braised pork shoulder, poached egg, avocado, hollandaise, pico, cotija...you kidding me?!? So damn good! The side salad is a perfect compliment. My Irish coffee definitely not shy on the Irish! Loved it! My partner had some over medium eggs (good execution) with bacon and a biscuit. The biscuit was fantastic - crispy layers of dough! Service is okay, but reminiscent of a diner. read more

Such a lovely little place! Sweet, helpful staff, clean, and really great food and drink. The drip coffee was very smooth and they kept my cup full. My breakfast partner had the veggie hash which was enjoyed very much. I had the Truckstop breakfast with 2 eggs, breakfast potatoes, veggie sausage (comes with your choice of protein), and a cat's head biscuit (that's what we called giant biscuits in the South). The cook prepared the scrambled eggs perfectly - I order eggs "scrambled, soft" but don't always come out that way, but they were expertly on target here. The breakfast potatoes were glorious- a generous serving of perfectly seasoned, fluffy soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, two pieces of tasty vegan sausage, and the biscuit had been sliced and heated on the stove and came with butter and what I suspect might have been housemade berry jam. I am fussy about pancakes and didn't see anyone else with them on their plates (as I rubbernecked around the room to see what people were eating) but I think I'll try one next time, now that I know what an exceptionally good job they did with everything on this first visit. Street parking. Use of their on-line waiting list is encouraged. read more

Little Griddle - fried chicken biscuit #1 - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Every. Single. Item. Was. Delicious. Country Benedict: the braised chicken was cooked to perfection, the hollandaise was perfect, and that was the tastiest, best biscuit I have ever had...AND I LIVE IN THE SOUTH! I also added a side of potatoes which were well-seasoned, crispy, and comforting. (Not pictured) My friend got the french toast which she thoroughly enjoyed and I also got to try some and loved that it was fresh bread, not overly sweet, and topped with fresh fruit sauce. We did note that it needed more but that might be the south in us that wants diabetes in everything. Lastly...the cold brew latter that they added their house made brown sugar syrup to. BEST coffee on my trip. I ordered a second one to go. The service was top notch. We laughed a lot, the place is quaint and cute. 12/10! read more

Great food and service. I recommend getting in line on the "wait list" on theyr website right before you go. The place is small and always busy. It's popular for good reason! Right on the 12 and 75 bus lines read more

Great place. Excellent food with a feel good 'vibe' and attentive and engaging staff. They're pretty fun too. And the Owner and Cooks are worth standing up to cheer about. Little Griddle is one of my top two breakfast/ brunch spots in Portland. read more

Little Griddle - Frenchy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

It used to be a very lovely place, one of my favorite places for breakfast/brunch in Portland, but definitely NOT anymore. We got on their waiting list and after receiving a message that we are first in line, we headed to the restaurant but ended up waiting another 30 minutes while watching multiple people coming in, checking in and getting inside while we were still waiting. When we finally were able to get inside, host didn't even show us our table. He did the same thing to the rest of the people as well creating bit of a confusion for everyone. His demeanor was very much like "I don't care" Food was way too salty and potatoes were undercooked. Needless to say, we will NOT be coming back here and, would NOT recommend this place to anyone. read more

I was met wi the smiles and respect! This place lives up to the hype! I came alone and there was a little wait, but not too bad in while waiting in amazing Portland weather. I was finally sat after 10 mins - inside is intimate but not too loud. Food fast and everything was delicious.. I highly recommend the country Benedict if you want something savory. The collard greens with the biscuit and braised chicken was a good take on a soul food Benedict. The French toast was extremely fluffy with the right amount of sweetness. The bloody Mary , or Maria (tequila) definitely helped with my slight hangover, and I ended up getting an Irish coffee, which was delicious as well. Wanted to try a few things so I got a good grip on the location. I will definitely be back & and I highly recommend this to anyone needing a good breakfast or brunch with amazing service. read more

It's been a long while and glad they're still knocking it out of the park. Don't underestimate the side salad that comes with most breakfast entrees. It's a delicious complement and gives whatever you're enjoying a healthy feel. The chicken biscuit is not the handheld kind as there's lots of oozing goodness. And this isn't some pre-fab dry white meat patty, great flavor. Service was excellent. The delicious homemade lemonade is a deal. Lovely spot and overall vibe. read more

Little Griddle - Skillet topped with poached eggs - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

My husband and I couldn't have made a better choice for our spur-of-the-moment breakfast outing at Little Griddle this morning. We arrived just after 9 AM on a Saturday, which seemed ideal. We found a table for two in the half-filled restaurant, just in the nick of time! Within ten minutes of our arrival the popular restaurant had a 12-person waitlist. I can't stress enough how adorable Little Griddle is. They pack a lot of cuteness into this small footprint of a cafe with 10-12 tables that stretch from the bright window in the front, to the kitchen window in the back. The ocean blue ceiling has touches of gold trim throughout, and the featured works by local artists help make the space feel extra special. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit with a side of roasted potatoes. The presentation was lovely, and the biscuit was expertly made. The meals seem shareable as the portions are generous. Every dish has a vegetarian option, and diners will find a wide variety of breakfast and brunch items on the menu. The overall vibe of Little Griddle is bright and happy. The staff were smiling and pleasant, and very attentive to our needs. I happily left a 25% tip and promised to come back again soon. This may be one of my new favorite breakfast places as it's conveniently located near my home and the food is DELISH! read more

Little Griddle - Bacon Cheddar Hash - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We stopped at Little Griddle before a spa day, and it was the perfect start. We joined the waitlist on the way over and only had about a 10-minute wait when we arrived. The place was packed -- and now I know exactly why. Service was great, food came out quickly, and everything was delicious. I ordered a single pancake with a pork sausage patty, and that pancake was ridiculously fluffy with real maple syrup -- absolutely worth the hype. My friend had the Truck Stop meal, and we both cleaned our plates. The only survivor was part of her biscuit, but to be fair, that biscuit was huge (and really good). Overall, a fantastic breakfast spot. Highly recommend, and we'll definitely be back. read more

I absolutely love this place, first off the location on Hawthorne does not get better. There is so much to do near bye and the vibes are always perfect especially during the summer. The food is great. If you want some yummy breakfast/brunch food but don't want to spend 30$ this is the place to go. I got a coffee and an entree for under 20$ which is hard to do at most sit down breakfast lunch spots. The eggs are always amazing here and you can't go wrong with their pulled pork options as well. The service is so amazing, I usually never have any issues or problem when I come here but today they were just a tad bit late on bringing my food out compared to the rest of my party. The server apologized and even discounted my food for the inconvenience which I thought was very thoughtful. They do a great job of making you feel welcome and the ambiance inside just adds to this feeling in so many ways. I would recommend you give Little Griddle a try if you are in the area! read more

Such great food and service! I appreciate having a waitlist option online, since the restaurant is small and extremely popular.

Visiting friends Woke up late, but made it for brunch at Little Griddle. My friend was like we have to eat here. The food did not disappoint. My friend & I ordered- the Shakshuka Skillet it came with: 2 poached eggs, marinated feta, peppers, onions, tomato and stewed spices. And I added vegan sausage. My friend's husband order the Bacon & Spinach Skillet. I also ordered a hot tea, which was basic. I will have to try something else for drinks next time. The food did not disappoint. I will back again when I visit Portland. read more

Everything was amazing! I got the sausage biscuit. It was very tasty. The biscuit was fluffy, crispy, and thick. I had to break it up into parts because it's too big to eat as a sandwich. The salad was great too! The huevos rancheros was good and the braised pork was perfect. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Our food came out very fast. read more

My hubby and I went to little griddle recently and absolutely loved it. We ordered 2 egg bene and one pancake. Egg Benedict's (huevo and florentine) were so flavorful, and the presentation was amazing. The pancake was so soft and melted in mouths. The staff were very friendly and made sure we got things we needed. It was a small joint and it was very busy on a Tuesday around lunch time. We enjoyed the ambiance and loved the pictures on the wall. We are definitely coming back when we visit the area again. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves a great brunch. read more
