Best milkshakes in Gresham! Service has always been great. Very friendly and inviting. My fiancé and I look very alternative (piercings and tattoos) and have never felt judged here unlike most of the places in gresham. They have great diner food at reasonable prices! read more

I have lived in Gresham for a long time but had never eaten there and then one day a friend suggested this restaurant to eat at. We loved it. Not only is service excellent, but they remember you when you come in. Also the waitresses have been their for years. Some for over thirty years. They have their regulars and they always have room for the new customers too. We love giving business to non-chain business and this is one we go to all the time now. read more

Small town feel. Great food and very nice staff. Cook went out of his way to make sure my special ordered burger was perfect. Thank you! read more

Awful since they got new owners. Food is gross. Service is worse. Cooks in the back to me to fuck off to my face in the restaurant. Don't waist your money. And they put sweet and sour sauce on the BBQ burger instead of BBQ!! blehhhh read more

Worst service. Decent food. Waitress took my son's order and totally ignored me. I won't be back.

The food here is typcial diner food, nothing special or amazing. Its small and crowded but I loved them. I went here for breakfast and at 35 I was the baby of the bunch. All the old retirees are freindly and are great people. My coffee cup never stayed below half full because it was being filled up. OK food, awsome service, kind of small, freindly crowd. read more

I come here for breakfast only but i do like it here. I have only ordered their omelettes. My favorite is the polar king omelette. It is big enough for two or three meals tho. It has ham bacon sausage cheese smothered in country gravy. read more

I come here once or twice a year. The place is a little small, and crowded, but the food has always been good. I highly recommend the Polar king country omelett. Weighs about 3 pounds and covered with gravy. read more

The standard in old-fashion breakfast diners. My go-to for eggs, toast, coffee and ham while I organize my thoughts

The last couple times we have eaten here have been bad. Food over done or under done. Service was VERY slow. People who came in after us and ordered after us were served about 10 minutes before us. Our waitress did not check on us to refill our coffee. We had to ask for it. She also did not check on us after serving our food but managed to check on the other people a couple of times. What happened to customer service? Would not recommend and definitely will not be going back. read more

worst food ever . its just that simple . food is bland and greasy. not to mention the bathroom was dirty and some sort of bug was on the floor read more

I've had a few different experiences here. But I will say it has mostly been good(which is why I gave 4 stars). The kitchen staff was kind, the waitress we've had had been good and the food is pretty delicious and I would say fairly cheap. I had one waitress pay for an ice cream cone for my daughter because I didn't have cash and she told me it would be a waste to put it on my card! Which was such a nice gesture. I have one waitress that I believe has been there a while who treats everyone as a family member and she's just amazing and then today I walked in, wanting breakfast and a possible Ice cream cone to help with my nausea I stood there for a bit hoping to get service and nothing. Although two waitress walked by me And neither acknowledge me or said "I'll be right with you". At least let a customer know they have been seen!Just a hello goes a long way. I hope if I come back I will get the other waitress'! read more

Exactly what you would expect from a home town diner. This is old school all the way. I have ate here several times over the past couple of decades and it's been pretty consistent and true to the style. If you want fancy this is not for you. If you want that homey feel that's what you'll find here. I have only been here for breakfast and never left hungry. read more

Unfortunately I'm not one to do this but I ordered a double bacon burger on door dash and it showed up over cooked , and the buns were so soggy it was like chewing on raw dough! My fiancé got the chili burger and the patty was burnt and over cooked to hell! The only thing that was ok about this food was the deep fried mushrooms and all this costed 34$!Needless to say I will never be returning as a customer nor will anyone I know! read more

New hash at Polar King....very lean and super flavorful!!! Be sure to stop in and get some soon!!

I have been going to this restaurant since i was a baby, i dont even remember meeting any of the people, they were just always a part of my life. My grandparents were regular customers there, and i was with them a lot, so naturally they brought me along. I still remember the big round table always being occupied by a bunch of older gentlemen talking abut past war stories, and fun times back in the day. It just always felt friendly,and welcoming :) Not to mention the waitresses were always great, we would come in, and instantly there was coffee for my grandpa, milk or orange juice for my grandma, and hot chocolate with "lots of whip cream" and they really nailed it :P just picture a 3 inch tall tower of whip cream, they hold no punches for their customers :). So please feel free to go have a nice meal with your family or loved ones, you definitely wont regret it. read more

Breakfast was great. Huge portions and tasty, diner style food. Obviously a lot of regulars here, gives it a homey feel. Fast and friendly service. I remember enjoying the shakes years ago, but I was too full to try another one. read more

I worked here for awhile. I got to say I do miss this place. The workers and the guest. I got to know alot of guess and I miss talkin to them. They had some amazing stories and jokes. Love polar king good restaurant read more

I went to polor king on Friday sept 8th and went back to have the #1 breakfast last time I was there it was $8.50 ,, now its $9.75,, before polor king was sold it was 8.00 dollars, any way 9.75 is a lot of money for breakfast , again the toast has shrunk again how much does a loaf of bread cost,,used to give regular 4 pieces of toast on a regular saucer,,,, small eggs , hash browns are ok , minuim wage did not go up in Gresham ,, the only good thing a person gets a free cup of coffee ,, comes with the beakfast,, if the prices keep going up ,, I saw the menu at polor kings prices on the menu have gone up again ,, probally the same price every where you eat ,, for this price of beakfast , I can cook every thing my self at home it wont cost 9.75,, cost of a dozen eggs 1.15,,a loaf of bread 1.25, and the meat and the hash browns still wont cost that much, and my friend had bowl of clam chowder , small portion wasn't much for the price,, will start to eat more at home its cheaper, overall great staff but who can afford to eat out read more

This is the worst place to have ice cream cone . When I got mine the ice cream fill off and they counter and they charged me for it but my husband was just mine so he had to pay $6.00 for one . We will never return there for anything. read more

Don't trust their security system. Had my iPhone and wallet stolen from there. Ask to see the security system and they said it doesn't work. Gave them a benefit of a doubt. Had several people also told me that they think the waitress stole it. I asked to speak to owner but they told me that they would have them contact me. Never received the call or a apology. Have spent well over $5000 at that place in a year. I guess they don't want my business. I heard they are selling the place. Maybe a new owner will remodel and bring in better food with service. I will then give them another chance otherwise they won't get my business. A simple apology would have taken cared of my anger. Recommend not going there as too many other better breakfast and lunch restaurant in town. read more

My husband and I love going to the Polar KIng. The food isn't gourmet, but it is hearty and plentiful. We love it so much because Maggie and the other wait staff are exceptionally warm and welcoming. It's our go-to place for breakfast in town. read more

Visiting from out of town. Everyone had already eaten so I went for a walk with my son. We ended up here. I ordered the Polar King Omelette. Surprised how quickly it came out. Delicious and more than enough. Plus I'm a sucker for hole in walls and when the waitress calls you sweetie. read more

I recommend you look at the dirty dining review before you eat here. When you can't pass health inspection it's not a safe place to eat when management and the servers have no idea about sanitation and are surprised at what the health inspector tells them it's not a safe place read more

For the love of god get rid of that picture. It looks like a rubbery omelet drowning in cadaver gravy, I know it's probably better than that, but the picture is just awful and I've lost my appetite just looking at that photo read more

So the food was good. I could complain that my omelet was not as warm as I might like when it came to the table but honestly that's not the end of the world. The portions were huge. Actually I easily could have made three meals of that omelet. Service was friendly but not so much that you felt creeped out. The decor is worn a bit, but clean. If you want a fine upscale dining experience you're just not going to go here in the first place. This is the place to get a decent meal for a reasonable price. But wait there's more; My car got stuck in the snow out by the road trying to get out of the parking lot. Literally within seconds the waitresses were out there pushing my car, and with a bit more help from others I was on my way. You want to talk about what's right with the world then you want to talk about good honest family owned businesses that go above and beyond for their customers. This is one of those. read more

Poor poor customer service. We walked in there. The sign said seat yourself and so we sat ourselves. A few guys were sitting across from us and the waitress clearly saw us as she brought them menus. She didn't acknowledge us. We sat there for 10 min waiting for a menu. We got up and left and she didn't even say anything to us as we left. Never attempting to eat here ever again. Never recommending this place to anyone either. read more

Went here on the way to multnomah from Portland. It's kind of a small little dingy place, but the breakfast was good and the waitress was sweet. I always get biscuits and gravy everywhere, and these ones were pretty delicious. read more

Love this place! It's close, inexpensive, good simple food and super friendly service.

the food was ok ,, one of the waitress was a little rude to me kept skipping my table when it wasn't busy in there,, , I think the breakfast was fake frozen hash browns eggs a little rubbery,,,, and also were the French frys are frozen ,, some restarants make there own frys,, ,, and sometimes I order a burger and frys to go ,, sometimes I get a lot of frys some times not,,mabe its the different cooks,, the burgers are just ok,, some other places might be cheaper,, just a typical diner and has been around for a while read more
