Bread and Friends: where carbs come to party and eggs try to keep up! The everything bagel pastry is the Beyoncé of brunch pastries - flawless, addictive, and leaving you wanting more. Sadly, the soft scrambled eggs were more like a failed attempt at a pillow fight - lacking fluffiness and leaving us feeling a bit deflated. And the deviled eggs? Well, let's just say they bring the heat like a fire-breathing dragon at a salsa convention. So, if you're into a brunch that's part paradise, part peril, Bread and Friends is your culinary rollercoaster ride!

This place is a must go for breakfast. Great staff and service, excellent food. I would give it 6 stars if I could. The bread and viennoiseries are expertly done. Everything on the menu is excellent, I would also say that the scrambled eggs is a must have.Big thanks to the staff and see you next time we come to Portland!

Such a great spot to visit when you're in Portland! We got there approx. 10 minutes before they opened on a Sunday morning and there was already a crown gathering. Favorite things we tried were the 5 Spice Miso Latte and the Loaded Potato Danish! Cute place & delicious :)

Minimal flavors for lattes. But just an unflavored latte blew my mind. Best latte I’ve had in the area so far. The croissant was delicious the Crispy Red Bliss Potatoes were punched full of flavor and cooked perfectly. If I was local this would be a regular spot for me.

Clean, new, light colored, wood/ceramic vibes. Delicious, unique lattes. Staff friendly enough. Attentive. Okonomiyaki was very cool. Must get croissant stuffed things ?

Hands down the best breakfast place and cafe in the area. Food is creative, full of life, inspired, and fun, and so are the lattes and baked goods. Service is exceptional, very accommodating, clear, helpful, and efficient. I could not speak more highly of this place!I recommend the crispy bliss potatoes, smoked maple latte, and the guava pastry, but that being said you really can’t go wrong. Put this place up on your list past anything else you’re considering for breakfast, it is well worth your time & money.

Absolutely love everything about this place. The food is incredible, the rye bread rivals some of the best I've had in central Europe. The menu is so creative and unique while all the food somehow remains familiar and approachable.

Walking up to the establishment there were people waiting outside. They were very efficient and seated us surprisingly quickly. Decor has a European feel very clean with large windows in and out. You can watch them baking pastries. The drinks were wonderful and beautiful, food was delicious, fresh and inspirational with dishes with combinations that you wouldn’t expect, but worked well together and were well-balanced. It shows they have a passion for their craft.

This place is super cute! We got a chocolate croissant and oat milk latte to go. The croissant was fluffy and had the perfect amount of chocolate distributed throughout. The latte was everything we needed. Folks who were ordering dine in seemed to be a mix of people working over breakfast and friends catching up over coffee. Great little spot!
