We stopped here for brunch on a Saturday morning. We were pleasantly surprised there wasn't a wait. They have a very comfortable seating area both inside and outside. Our server was fantastic. He joked around with us, made good suggestions and was attentive. The potatoes were amazing. We both loved our food so much we went back later in the day for dessert! read more

I hadn't been in here in about a decade, but found it looks exactly the same as I remembered it. Staff members were polite enough. We were in at lunchtime and very pleasantly surprised at how quickly our food came. We shared a tuna melt, and very glad we had made the decision to share since it came and was absolutely ginormous. I love that they include tomato on it and some great cheddar cheese, but also appreciate the way the tuna is made, with some solid pieces of tuna, plus interestingly, some very finely diced carrot, which gave a slight sweetness and crunchiness to each bite. This was a really great sandwich. We had fries as our side and the french fries were perfectly golden. They are battered, but the batter was very light. Very good. My daughter's latte was excellent. Too full to have dessert, but we did take some croissants home for later; they just look so good. Everything in their dessert case is beautiful. read more

Great food! Mediocre service. We visited the Lake Oswego location and were seated on the patio by a rather lack luster hostess. Server was ok. Food arrived in a reasonable time frame by a different server. **But** the bread on my salad was clearly not the gluten-free I had asked for! When I brought it to the server's attention she lifted the bread off the salad and turned away. I had to ask her to bring a new salad as the one in front of me now had been glutened. A new salad appeared fairly quickly with gluten-free bread so I can only hope thst the kitchen staff did indeed make a new salad. The server never came back to the table to ask if everything was ok or if we wanted desserts. And getting her attention for to-go boxes and the bill was frustrating. If this had been our first visit, it would have been our last! Do better! read more

Had the poached eggs and hashbrowns with sausage in a mini cast iron pot with nice crusty baguette slices. Service was quick and friendly. Also had their red juice blend which was tasty. I can see why my coworkers recommended this place. Lots of tables to choose from. Street parking wasn't hard to find on a weekday morning. Need to come by again for their french toast. read more

Love La Provence. This was our first time at the Petite location on Alberta. We visit Portland a couple times a year and always end our trip with brunch here. Sunday morning at 11am my husband and I got a seat at the bar. It was pretty busy. As usual the fresh croissant was amazing, flakey, and buttery. I had the chefs omelette for the first time. It was exactly as I wanted it and the hash browns were nice and crunchy. My husband had the corned beef hash and it was so flavorful and delicious. I will order that next time. Ambiance is great and service was fast and friendly. read more

I enjoyed my visit to Petite Provence. I hadn't been in a while and I was reminded of why I should go more often. The vibe is chill, the service is good, and the food is great. I had a salad and the French Onion soup. My food was delicious! I also had a Matcha Latte and while I don't normally enjoy Matcha, I thought the drink was delicious and I enjoyed it. I would definitely visit again. There is lots of inside seating as well as some covered outside seating. There is street parking which can be tricky to find a space. I found one pretty easy, across the street. read more

Love the cozy Euro vibe on the inside with the warm wood tones and metal accents -- sure makes you wanna linger for a bit. Also digging the offbeat menu that includes some old reliables but also takes chances -- my Risotto Cakes and Eggs was a delight, with the mushrooms and red onions in the lightly breaded cakes pairing perfectly with the two poached eggs on top. The whole thing was a pile of warm oozing goodness, and my fruit side was pretty hefty too (though mostly grapes and pineapple). Server was very pro, polite and thoughtful and on point with the order -- our service was efficient yet warm. A great meeting spot too. Parking can be a hunt in this hood though. read more

Our server Kevin was wonderful. Kudos! However my Mediterranean salad was not so great: the chicken was tough, overcooked? The garbanzos were hard. Won't order it again. read more

We walked a mile with a couple small kiddos to grab some croissants early morning. One person inside and one party outside. The lady working there was adamant we could not sit down, even if the place was empty and we we'd be quick. read more

This place has gone downhill so much over the years. The croissants are often dry and stale and the food is bland and flavorless. I think they gave up trying or they have chefs who simply do not care about the quality of what they are making. We used to get great food but in recent years it has tanked, sadly. read more

We were seated right away at 9am on a Sunday. I immediately noticed old food stains all over the fabric chairs and bench. It was everywhere. It was surprising to me that they would use fabric on their chairs at all and that no one made an effort to clean it at the end of the night. Our server was curt and seemed agitated or annoyed the whole time. Everyone at our table noticed it. Thankfully, the food was delicious. I enjoyed the omelette that was stuffed with mushrooms. The hash browns were perfectly cooked, and the croissant and jam never disappoint. Still with no many amazing place to enjoy breakfast in Portland, the service and cleanliness were big enough let downs to go elsewhere next time. We used to really enjoy this place, but after two so-so visits in a row, I think we're calling it. read more

I love this place, been going here for years. Nice, attentive wait staff and good food that arrives hot even when they're busy.

Very good soup. Nice depth of flavor, tender pieces of onion, the croutons were chewy and crunchy somehow. Great cheese pull and also crispy. How did the do that so well. They are busy. Took a bit to get seated. Then a bit to be seated, chose to sit outside so not as long of a wait. The food arrived quicker than expected for the three of use. One of us had the grilled fresh albacore tuna sandwich on sourdough. It was grilled perfectly. The other had an omelette with hash browns which thy thoroughly enjoyed. Finished with Rose Macaroons - simply awesome! The inside of the restaurant was very pleasant. Can't say much for our seating, but like I said we chose to sit outside in covered street booth that had several tables, and Alberta Street is busy. read more

They're actually only open until 3:00 on weekdays. They need to care enough to update their hours.

What a lovely place for brunch! The decor is so cute and charming. Service was very friendly. Our drinks came out after our food, but they were pretty busy and it wasn't a huge deal. The pastries are SO GOOD! The croissant is to die for! We also tried a chocolate beignet which was decadent! I wish I could have bought all the pastries!! read more

Overall a solid breakfast place. I was in the east side of Portland waiting for the PDX Thai festival to start and decided to eat here for breakfast since I had a few hours to go. I tried the strawberry French toast and eggs Benedict on croissant and both dishes tasted great. The strawberry French toast had a nice sweetness overall that wasn't to overbearing. One thing id say is for the price I paid for, it would have been nice for this dish to be accompanied along with something else besides just having the French toast alone. The eggs benedict tasted great overall. It was a bit messy trying to eat it along with the croissant because the croissant just doesn't cut well with a butter knife, but overall the dish was great. I'd also like to give remarks to the service as well. They were friendly and quick with their services. I didn't have to wait long at all for the food to come to the table nor for the check. read more

In all honest I stopped for a bathroom break, but of course I wasn't going to leave without purchasing something. I purchased a few somethings, including a marionberry macaron for my daughter (she seemed to be a fan) one of my mom's favorites, a pavlova. I don't know if I've seen pavlova at a bakery before and mom was thrilled to have a little mini one. I think it's probably been over 20 years since she's had one and she said it was delicious. I'm not sure if there's parking here besides what's on the street. It's got a really nice outdoor seating area as well. read more

The best thing about petite provence is sitting outside on Alberta on a Summer afternoon. The service is usually very good and then in terms of the food itself. It's well mostly forgettable. I know I've had the French onion soup there and an omelette or two, but I can't remember anything about the food which is unfortunate. But it's not bad. It's just not very memorable. read more

Visited this spot a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Ordered the Baked Eggs a la Francaise, Chorizo Hash Scramble, Pavlova, Napoleon and a Pistachio Mini Macaron. Both the Baked Eggs a la Francaise and the Chorizo Hash Scramble were great, but the baked eggs were my favorite! It's poached eggs with grilled hash browns, sautéed mushroom and ham, topped with gruyère béchamel and Swiss cheese gratiné. It's served with toasted baguette slices and it was so fresh and tasty. I wasn't the biggest fan of the pistachio macaron, but the other two desserts were great and out of the two, the Napoleon was the best. It has layers of caramelized puff pastry filled with vanilla cream and it was so yummy! read more

Omg, the pastries at this place are phenomenal! I love bread and pastries that I've tried many places in mostly Seattle. But this place offers a wide variety of pastries and cakes at fair price with high quality ingredients. I noticed great craftsmanship in these beautiful creations. So appreciated. We've tried their fruits tart with happy Mother's Day chocolate for Mother's Day weekend, eclair, pavlova, a croissant, apple turnover and baguette. Fruits on the tart were so fresh and sweet. Custard on the tart and eclair were just right in sweetness, creamy and melt in your mouth. Pavlova had great texture with crispy meringues, cream and slight tartness from raspberries. It seems like this is one of their chain stores that multiple locations in Portland and Vancouver. It's a keep in the repeat list. read more

One of a few locations, this spot offers the French brunch you might be looking for?!? Baked goods that are both eye catching and delicious! A pistachio croissant with pistachio crème inside, absolutely divine. Savory items like a spinach, tomato, feta croissant, too. Hot breakfast like risotto cakes & poached eggs or a baked crock of goodness like Baked Eggs a la Francaise. The latter is full of hash browns, ham, mushrooms, and topped with cheese - with perfect medium poached eggs. Smash! Pistachio Espresso Martini might be the best cocktail ever, could chug it! The hot sauce is a must add to any dish. This place is great! read more

I have been going to this location since the year they opened. Back when they had dinner. Before I could consume alcohol (I was 20, it's been about 15 years). I was treated crappily by staff who I observed saying my order was not their responsibility. Not everyone there was bad. The initial service I got was good, but my coffee was so poorly slapped together because I spoke up. My sandwich was also slapped together missing ingredients I paid for, so enjoy the extra money I guess. Here's how the interaction went. I was assured my mocha would be ready in a few minutes, before my food, from a really nice staff person who too my to-go order. They instructed me where to stand. I watched the person put together my mocha. All that was needed was ice. My food came out quickly and I took it while waiting for my drink. 15 minutes passed. Two staff members looked at my drink and one said "who put this here " and another person said "I don't know, not my problem". I spoke up and said "hey that's my drink and if you put ice in it, I promise I'll get out of your way" - it was busy and packed. I was trying to be understanding. One of them made a disgusted face at me and said "I was gonna put ice in it!!!" ... wow. Eventually they did. And did it so sloppily that there was mocha all over the drink. The top was put on poorly and the drink spilled all over me. I tried to tell another server who was greeting and seating people but they kept saying "oh it's okay! It's totally fine" - no, it actually isn't. I get it. You don't want my business of 15+ years, but there are nicer ways of conveying that. I was ripped off and treated in a way I don't treat my enemies. But just like my order, that's "not your problem", right? read more

We are in the area and wanted something upscale for brunch and this did not disappoint. I went for the raspberry mojito French toast and oh my goodness it was terrific. It had a citrus filling between a couple of slices with some raspberry sauce on top of two slices of perfectly cooked very tender brioche bread. I had a side of bacon to go with it and I thought it couldn't have been any better. I was surprised about the response from earlier reviewers. The wife went for the traditional eggs benedict and it was cooked perfection. The eggs were just just right. The Benedict sauce was terrific. The French croissant separated this Benedict from the others she had had and it made it truly amazing. Couldn't ask for anything better. Service was good. We got the food quickly and we took some pastries home with us to enjoy later. Highly recommend it. You should give it a try if you haven't read more

My out of town guest and I have come to the Alberta St. location annually for years. But that's over. We look forward to the French Onion soup - it's usually so good. This year, however, it was served at a tepid temperature with congealed cheese on top so we had to send it back. My friend's Monte Cristo sandwich was also lukewarm and the cheese inside was barely melted. It appeared to have been sitting out for a while and we wondered why they would even serve it. Clearly, the kitchen has gotten really sloppy and for the prices they charge we won't be back next year. Or the year after that. We are done. read more

We ordered the risotto cakes and peach pancakes and both were so good! The risotto cakes came with a croissant and the server was so nice and let me try a baguette as well! I'd definitely order the CROISSANT! It came with the most delicious raspberry jam! We sat outside and it was really enjoyable. SKIP the green tea latte. It's DISGUSTING. Worst I've ever had. It's SO SWEET and just wasn't drinkable. It's an instant mix instead of being legit matcha so it didn't taste like tea. It just tasted like sugar milk. The service was SO GOOD that I'd give this place 5 stars but it was the beverage that threw me off. read more

I want to start out by saying I have not had a bad meal at this location in the past, but today was next level bad. My client and I both decided to order croissants. She had the breakfast sandwich and I had the pre-baked ham and cheese from the display case. The server brought them to us and the bottom of my croissant was so soggy that it looked like it had been sitting in a plate of water for 5 minutes. When I asked the server how it was heated (which I did not ask for) he said the microwave. I told him I thought so because the bottom was soggy and the top was rubbery. So disappointed and he seemed unaffected by the issue. He brought us the bill and said sorry in passing, but never offered to toast it or grab one that was not heated. To make matters worse, I ordered a latte and it arrived almost cold. I think we just stopped by on a bad day. This is not the usual experience. I hate that I still felt compelled to leave a tip. read more

Was super excited to try out this place for brunch! They have an extensive menu and serve breakfast and lunch all day. I ordered the corned beef hash and the banana French toast to share. The corned beef hash was super yummy, and a very large portion. The French toast was a little too soggy for me, so I would skip on that. Also they give you a free croissant with your meal + jam. Their croissant is so so good, baked fresh, and pairs perfectly with their homemade jam. I feel like if you wanted something sweet to pair with your breakfast, this is the perfect addition. Overall service was really quick and nice for our group of 8. I would definitely come back here! It's got a cute ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Super great spot in Portland proper... had an excellent club sandwich and really excellent fries. A nice salad and fresh brewed iced tea. Great outside seating... only issue is sometimes the servers take some time to make the rounds outside, so waited for drinks and condiments, etc. for a while. Recommended for sure. read more

Very cute spot but my biscuits and gravy were very dry. Our waiter was kind of strange. He made jokes while turned away from us, responded to our questions with what seemed like riddles and did not offer to refill water. My companion's house Benedict was pretty good. Too expensive to give them another try. read more

This was one of the first restaurants I tried when I moved to the area over 10 yrs ago. I love that the baked goods are still just as delicious and the beauty of this location still shines. Early on a weekday there is plenty of parking and seating. The service was appropriate, we did not feel rushed or ignored. The menu is their classic menu and I finally tried the Polenta and eggs. Poached eggs are not my favorite and I felt for me they needed a little more time to cook. To someone else they would be perfect. The polenta and vegetables were delicious and when I reheated my extras the eggs cooked to more my liking. Of course we had some pastries and my companions reported the savory croissants were delicious. My plain croissant was delicious as well and filling since I was taking more of my main meal home. A great location to meet with friends, bring out of town guests, or become a regular for your daily meals! read more

I've heard so much about the cancel culture. I was raised in the consequence culture. I believe the cancel culture has evolved from people that do not like consequences and want to blame others. I spend money in stores where I'm welcomed. My wife walked into the restaurant while I finished a phone call outside. I went in after to join her and admire the lovely desserts in the case. We waited while the gentlemen in front of us finished his order and was shocked when the sales guy looked at us and walked away. Not only did he leave he grabbed his stuff and went behind the employees only area. There we stood for another 3 to 5 minutes. There were at least 5 people working in the area and not one checked to see if we needed any attention. I finally waved some attention to us and asked for a manager. Funny thing, after I asked for the manager, the waitress/customer service lady asked if we would like to be seated. At this point no thank you. Just the manager please. I informed the manager of the service level and my disappointment of the staff's lack of professionalism with helping every customer no matter of race. I learned in the 1970's to spend my money only where I receive service and respect. I refused to purchase at this point. Too bad, everything looked so tasty. read more

I had been eyeing Petite Provence for a while now. I finally decided to go and try them out in the Alberta. I was met with less than friendly glares from patrons and the lady at the counter was not much better than the pretentious patrons. I decided on a pistachio croissant which sounded interesting and looked just as appealing. Actually all of their pastries look really appealing. It tasted great and was fresh. I really wanted to feel good energy here, as I wanted to suggest my family visit here when they visit for a foodie tour. Unfortunately, I would not want them to feel unwelcome by staff and be glared at by patrons all at the same time. read more
