I just enjoyed their café au lait and a slice of their carrot cake. Both were delicious. There is a small, covered outdoor seating area that was nice. The service was quick and the server very attentive. read more

The best part about Sweedeedee is everything! Lovely, delicious food, good service and a sweet quaint place. The worst part is that it's so good that it's busy and requires patience to wait to get in. read more

Sweedeedee - Sweedeedee Breakfast Plate - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Came here for brunch - did not feel like they had lot of options for brunch food (have a number of sweets to order). Ingredients were fresh but portions very small. Very small indoor seating - 2 bar chairs and 3/4 inside tables - they do have a number of outside tables but was too hot to sit outside and so we waiting for a while for indoor seating. They have a cute small indoor wall made into market goods for sale (sauces, wines and pasta) read more

Wow, how have I not reviewed this place yet?! A couple of things about this place: it's about as twee/cute/hipster as you can get. If quirky light fixtures, old timey glassware, and over-engineered water stations annoy you, don't bother. For the non-curmudgeons among us: this place is great. It's about as "Portland" as you can get. The seating setup, however, is pretty anxiety-inducing. You order at the counter, then chose your seat. It always seems like you'll never get a seat, but, miraculously, you always seem to! The staff seems to have gotten wind of this over the years, and they are now very helpful in placing you in the perfect seat. They have amazing-looking baked goods. I'm not into baked goods. I'm into these baked goods. I usually get their classic plate breakfast. You get a little bit of everything and a big hunk of their house-made bread. The coffee here is also spectacular. It's much more estery/fruity than most coffee in Portland. It reminds me of the coffee over at "Heart". read more

this place was not what i was hoping for. the food was mid tier and pretty overpriced if you consider the portion sizes. i honestly just think that they didn't have a lot of options for someone with my taste since i am a pretty picky eater. additionally, i was confused by where we were expected to pay and it was a little busy so it was hard to get the staff's attention. read more

Five stars for service and ambiance. We can't wait to go back! We tried three different menu items.

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! Definitely a trek to get there but I'll do it everytime. Lovely place decorated with many house plants and the vinyl record playing in the background created the perfect atmosphere for brunch on a rainy Sunday morning. We wanted to order everything on the menu and grabbed all the pastries in the showcase but, alas, we can only pick a couple of stuffs. We went with the Salted Honey Pie (topped with whipcream) for a starter. It was stellar. The depth of the honey flavor was phenomenal. The hint of salt helped to elevate the honey; everything worked perfectly together. For the mains, we shared the Porridge, the Corn Cake Plate, and the Breakfast Plate between us. What a feast it was! The Porridge was like nothing we've had before. It had a subtle pumpkin taste that was perfect for Fall and went really well with the chopped pickled vegetables and crispy bacon. The Corn Cake Plate came hefty with two cornbread pancakes and two sunnyside up. We went to town with the maple syrup on this one and it was amazing. Even the collard greens was delicious! The Breakfast Plate looked less interesting than the other but don't judge until you've tried the Wheat Molasse Toast. Boy, do I want a loaf of that pillowy bread. Toasted and buttered, the toast itself made the dish. I'm counting the day to be back and try everything else there! read more

Cute space, good music on the turntable, and delicious food (especially baked goods). We enjoyed the Niçoise salad with house poached tuna (even my two kids) and the biscuit was one of the best I've had. Not cheap, but a nice spot to bring an out of town guest or date. read more

The cutest and tastiest brunch spot in Portland! The staff is cool as hell, and the food coming out the kitchen is next level. Be real, this is brunch for lovers not hangovers. No better place in town for you and yours to gaze longingly at one another while eating crazy yummy and healthy dishes. The place is as quaint and cool as can be, and the records playing are coming from Mississippi Records next store. The breads are made in-house and crazy good. The lineage of this place goes back to Random Order (RIP) and before. Any bad reviews are coming from out-of-towners that aren't used to ordering before being seated. The staff know what they're doing. Don't sweat it, they'll get you seated and fed. The menu has changed over the years, so you may miss some old dishes, but you'll find new favorites. Don't be afraid of change. Embrace the taste! Go! read more

I enjoyed our late lunch at Sweedeedee! We were running towards the end of their day though so they were running low on things. Super cute inside- we sat at a counter near the record player and enjoyed the ambiance. Every server with interacted with was lovely. The highlight for me was the blueberry bar we had for dessert- so good! read more

This is my new go to place when in Portland. I've never waited for a restaurant to open before but it was worth it! The food is scrumptious. There were 4 of us. Two ordered the toast with makers. Delicious and a refreshing take on avocado toast. Another ordered the breakfast sandwich which was stuffed with eggs and bacon. But the winner of the table was the French toast. Oh my! The 'orange-y' goodness was to die for. Sadly, our trip ended before we got a chance to try the lunch items. On my bucket list for our next visit. read more

I don't know what is about this place but there's something that keeps bringing me back. They have a small menu which I'm not usually a fan of at restaurants but their menu is unique, constantly evolving/updated and is delicious. The people who work their are always kind and the small coziness or home like feel adds to the ambiance. Oh and their pastries are literally to die for. It's always fun to pop in for a small treat and coffee. read more

Super cute cafe, and I had high hopes when we walked in. We were told there was a 10-15 minute wait for our party of two and they put our name on a list. We were the next people on the list. Within 5 minutes, 2 tables of 2 left. For whatever reason, they waited until they had enough tables to seat a few tables at once so our 10-15 wait was actually 25-30 minutes. They have 4 items on the menu for lunch and they were out of the one item we wanted. Poor supply management. I ordered a salad which was very overdressed and Grandma's bread which turned out to be a $6 slice of bread. $6 for ONE slice of bread. And if I wanted jam or cinnamon and sugar, that was going to cost an additional $2!! What amount of cinnamon and sugar are you giving to charge $2?! And of course, because it's Portland - we had to get our own coffee and go up to the counter to pay. So while the vibe is super cute, and the girl behind the counter was very sweet, the overall experience was "meh". read more

This is the breakfast establishment of my DREAMS. After reading many reviews that outlined the limited seating and hit or miss service, I had low expectations. You order from the counter, and then they find you a seat. . . I would literally stand on the corner and eat my food over a trash can. That's how good it is. While they're taking your order, seating you, and clearing tables they also manage to throw records onto the record player. TAKE ME BACK! ORDER EVERYTHING IN THE PASTRY CASE (the prices are insanely reasonable). Sweedeedee breakfast plate ($12) is served with a baked egg, farm greens, cornmeal molasses toast, bacon, sharp cheddar and seasonal fruit. NOT SURE WHY THIS IS SO GOOD. Breakfast burrito ($11) This is my least favorite of all the items I ordered. Flour tortilla, pinto beans, smashed potato, egg, white cheddar, cilantro crema, cabbage. Not sure why but it's just so bland. BLB ($15 with added egg) cornmeal molasses bread, mayo, farm beets, bacon, farm greens. THIS IS THE BEST SANDWICH I'VE EVER HAD. All sandwiches should have beets. Yes, I came back and ordered it twice. I will literally book my next Air Bnb in Portland based on its proximity to Sweedeedee. read more

I was searching for a spot to have a late breakfast Friday around noon. I ran across Sweedeedee on my online search. I had not really heard of this place before they recently reopened having closed for the pandemic. I drove up Albina from Mississippi. I saw the place seemed kind of full which was a good sign. I parked and wheeled over to the front door passing the outside seating area which had a couple open tables. Someone saw me coming and opened the door for me. I wheeled up the ramp and was greeted by the person behind the counter with a "how can I help you?". The inside seating was all taken. From where I was I could see back to the kitchen space which had fresh bread on the top lots of pots and pans and happy people working the area - another good sign. The person said they could text me when an inside seat opens up as it was a bit chilly outside. I noticed a group paying for their experience and ordering some merch which was a further sign of good. I stepped out into the street to wait for my text message. Around the corner was a veggie shop with a carrot on top of the building. It seemed like a healthy place so I entered. I noticed a nice wine selection...a bottle from Sicily...they must be connected. Lots of fresh vegetables and foods. I continued a walk around the block and received my text message probably a wait of 15 minutes from when I stepped out the door. I returned, my table was waiting, the staff greeted me with warm smiles. I took my seat which had water waiting at the table and was asked if I would like some coffee and given a menu. I saw all sorts of good food on other peoples' tables. People happily gobbling up what was on their plates. I ordered the french toast probably would have had the sourdough toast dish which looked good but I have been craving french toast. The coffee was from Extracto which has always been great coffee experiences for me. The French Toast with raspberry sauce was the choice today! So far a pretty aesthetically pleasing experience. The French Toast arrived truly appetizing. I started in each bite was better than the previous. A custard like center with crispy edges to the bread and a raspberry sauce that was full of flavors as well. It was a pretty large order and felt myself getting full too soon maybe a sugar rush now or was I in a food food coma. Either way pretty delicious and pleasant experience. Guests were still coming and going nothing seemed too rushed more devouring rather than savoring. For sure some deep flavors going on. One could say everybody who is anybody was in the house. read more

Came here for brunch last weekend and ordered the coffee and the egg and cheese sandwich, we also ordered the grain and vegetable bowl. We came on a Saturday afternoon and there was a bit of a wait for 2 people. We sat at the bar where they play vinyl tracks- But they did not let me play my vinyl. Hence the 4 star. Otherwise fresh ingredients and a lot of market place items (local and import) for purchase! read more

I got the breakfast plate, and I would say that I could tell everything was very fresh. I think for someone that's looking for something more light, this is the right place. I'm not sure I would describe this place as a very hearty meal, but it was still a pleasant experience. What really wow-ed me was the salted honey pie. Would highly recommend that! In terms of the place, was smaller and not many tables to sit at, would not recommend coming in a big party. I did like the decorations and plants that were overhead, as well as the ambiance of having cassette tapes, records, and music that played on a turntable. Would give it another try. read more

Loved my lunch at Sweedeedee! Portland has no shortage of awesome cafes and this one definitely won me over. My friend and I came in on a Saturday for a late lunch--you order at the counter and they seat you when a table becomes available. We only had to wait a few minutes before snagging a table inside (there's some outdoor seating as well if the weather cooperates with you). I ordered the soup and salad and a drip coffee. The soup they had that day was a creamy veggie situation with lentils in it. So good! The salad was really simple and lovely and the big hunk of bread on the side was a nice touch. The coffee is serve yourself so you can go nuts if you want to! The space itself is beautiful but fairly small, so U wouldn't come here with a group of more than three or four people. Prices are fair and standard for a good meal in Portland. One note about service: the folks who were working the day I came in were the least friendly of anyone I encountered in Portland. Honestly everything was good about my experience aside from their bummer attitudes. Not sure if that's always the case and certainly wouldn't stop me from coming back, just worth noting! read more

This is the second time I've visited Portland & also the second time coming to this little spot! I love it! PSA: When you walk in, grab a menu by the coffee stand & get in line to order. You order your food prior to being seated, & don't worry! They don't fire your food until you've been seated. I love that this place has self serve coffee & water! The food has been delicious each time I've been. You can tell they put love into the plates they send out! The restaurant is clean & the employees are always friendly. If you're in the mood for something sweet they have a wide selection of in house made desserts & pastries. The egg sandwich has been my favorite meal so far! I'll definitely be back. read more

Their Sunday menu is very limited. We went here expecting French toast, breakfast sandwiches, etc (which is posted on their website btw) but when we arrived, we were told that they have a different menu on Sunday's. There were literally only 3 "breakfast" items on the menu and two of them were just yogurt and bread with butter. Which really doesn't make sense to me since Sunday is usually the most ideal brunch day where you want more breakfast-y items like eggs, bacon, etc. read more

Sweedeedee - VERY limited breakfast on Sundays. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Kind of obsessed. Their breakfast is good, their later in the day menu is good. This all day cafe hits all of the spots no matter what time of day it is. An abundant pastry case will undoubtedly catch your eye and the intimate dining area will make your dining experience all the more special with the natural light and wood floors. Their coffee service and pottery are solid, the sweet and savory breakfast options will hit the spot and that grandma's bread is no joke. It's like Texas toast on crack. They offer seasonal menus and are always busy. Be sure to check out the dry goods shelves for you at-home needs and maybe take a pastry, or two, with you, too! read more

This is one of the spots I like to visit when I'm in Portland. It captures what the locals crave, a seasonal fresh meal. Today I splurged on a delicious Bloody Mary with a unique twist - beet juice. Drink was bright and colorful, best part - it works. My entree was a BLT and added one of the farm fresh eggs. The heirloom tomato was hearty and bursting with flavor, it really made the BLT experience stand out and now crave heirloom tomatoes. The bread is also baked in house, with a perfectly toasted crust, my taste buds screamed with joy. Btw - I read some of the negative reviews on here and have to comment. 1. Please be patient and take the McDonald's attitude some place else. Yeah you might get an occasional wait, and yeah some people might have a small conversation with the staff. You know what, it's called socializing. Perhaps have a light snack and not wonder over HANGRY 2. To the one person that commented on chilaquiles about it having cilantro. Just a tiny fact this is a traditional Mexican dish. Google what you don't know and refrain the negative comments due to ignorance. That's all I have to say, thanks Sweedeedee :) read more

Food was def mid, expensive too. I personally did not enjoy, and would not return. I reccomend trying yourself though.

First time here as I don't usually spend a lot of time in NE, which will clearly be changing after the visit to this cute spot! You have to wait to be seated and order until your whole party is here but that's pretty typical for most places here in town. You order at the counter which, is kind of nice as there's no awkwardness over the bill or tip at the end of your meal. Our server was really friendly and let me do quite a few adjustments on my order as I'm trying to be a little bit lower calorie (hello 2020!). Their coffee was amazing and I want their mugs in my house for personal use! Instead of any artificial sweeteners they had honey water and simple syrup. But...HONEY WATER? 100% yes, I am on team honey water (HW) now. Ok, enough about HW...I ordered the breakfast burrito kind of deconstructed without the tortilla and some of the other elements on the side. It was delicious and my friends food looked pretty great too. Our food came out relatively and although it is a smaller place you don't feel the need to rush from the staff, which is nice. Overall, personally the vibe is cute/chic farmhouse meets hipster, which I am all about. Will definitely be back soon. Portland needs more breakfast places like this little gem. read more

First off, the food is indeed VERY fresh here (in Portland in general). Love that they use local, in-season ingredients. There menu seems to change often, so you know the ingredients are fresh! There menu is very simple, but the quality of the food is absolutely amazing. I give this place 3 stars, only because it wasn't mind-blowing food -- it was good, but nothing I remember or want to try again. Except for the pie, come here for the pie and only the pie!! I had their House Trout Plate. The mixed greens were so fresh!! The smoked trout was also not too salty and had a nice soft texture. The horseradish sauce was strong, so order that on the side if you get the chance! Loved the bread, eggs, and potatoes. All the flavors tasted great together. My friends had the Breakfast Plate and Breakfast Bowl, which both looked very vibrant in flavor and they said it tasted good as well. We shared a slice of Salted Honey Pie, thought I would not have minded eating this whole thing myself! Perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors, topped off with house made whipped cream! YUM! Overall, it's a nice meal, but if you're on a time crunch and on a foodie-adventure -- I'd suggest coming here and trying just the Salted Honey Pie! read more

We found this place by accident (We were looking for a tra place), but it was a happy accident. This snug little restaurant also had covered outdoor seating, which we took advantage of. The heater over the table made it just perfect for a February evening. I ordered the most beautiful and elegant side salad I have ever seen. It was almost too pretty to eat, but it was delicious. (How often can you say that about a side salad?) My companion had a curly pasta dish (I don't remember the name) that they said was perfectly balanced. We shared the yummy green olives. Service was ideal, and the server checked back on us several times and answered several questions we had about the food. I highly recommend this little place for an intimate meal with friends or sweethearts. read more

A cool, chill cafe with great backed goods and a nice brunch / lunch menu. Had a charred corn soup which was mind blowing good served with some delicious bread. Also ordered a Bacon, Lettuce and Beet sandwich which had wonderful bread and was quite nice. What I can not understand, at all, is after ordering at the counter and then waiting for a table outside it could take over 40 minutes after we got our table to be served a bowl of soup and a sandwich. It makes no sense at all and it seemed that everyone was waiting quite a time to receive their orders. They did tell us that our order was put in after we were seated but almost 40 minutes after that to get our lunch? And, on a weekday that was only a little busy. Our food was certainly a 4 star rating at least which is why my final rating is a 2 instead of a 1. Folks @ Sweedeedee, how long does it take to make a BLB sandwich and ladle some soup in a bowl? More than 40 minutes is plain absurd! read more

Sweedeedee - Charred Corn Soup - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Sweedeedee has a great name, a great soundtrack, some excellent corn cakes and some difficult to score tables. In terms of food, there are some basic, tasty farm fresh eats here. We had the Sweedeedee breakfast, small fresh green salad, hunk of farmstead cheese, two of the thickest slices of bacon, one sunny side up egg, brioche toast and some homemade not too sweet berry jam. This felt like a simple farm-style breakfast, unsophisticated but wholesome. More eggs would make this a better order. We also got the breakfast burrito with bacon --tasty. Our best order was the corncakes, remarkable tasting cornbread pancakes with tons of bacon and a side of greens. Enjoyable. The BLB (Bacon, Lettuce and Beets) sandwich just was named one of the best sandwiches in Portland, so maybe try that too. In fact, Sweedeedee has been getting lots of editorial food love (Eater, Portland Magazine, GQ) for their tasty items. There are great tunes on the radio and cheery hipsters work here. Clearly, the farm freshness of the food is a priority, and the plates look like simple goodness, with dense cakes from another era, like your auntie or grandma might make. Food is wholesome and solid. My main reservation at Sweedeedee is an odd ordering system where you wait in a line to order food first, then put your name in for a table. Next, you inexplicably wait outside again until a table is ready (about an hour or more on weekends.) Then even later, you get a table. Then twenty minutes after that the food that you ordered and paid for an hour and a half ago, arrives at your table. There is a reason most other restaurants don't work this way. It's awkward. Its odd. Its really not at all customer-friendly. (I suppose now that you've paid, you are not going to bail out. Maybe that's the theory?) In terms of a customer experience, I'd far rather leave my name, grab a latte elsewhere. and get a call back that my table is ready. Strange but true. From a food perspective, its basic, fresh, simple and very tasty. Ordering: frustrating, but you'll have to decide if it works for you. read more

I can see why people say this place is full of pretentious hipsters, but if you're looking the classic Portland Zoo where you can take pictures of hipsters in their habitat, come here. They definitely have some unique pastries and I definitely need to come back to try more. I only came for dessert, and my honey cake was fully of honey flavor and the fresh fruits on top were a plus. My friend had the almond cake and while nothing special, I wasn't mad at it. read more

Sweedeedee - Turkey Sandwich amazing - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Came here for breakfast and it was amazing! We read that this place was pretty popular and they take no reservations, so we made sure we got there when they opened and there were already people inside! Restaurant is pretty small and the outside is a bit rundown but the inside is very clean and cozy. I really like their hipster decor. Corncakes: Saw this as a highlight on Yelp and recided to get it. The corncakes were amazing! Its like pancakes but I guess made with corn? It had a subtle sweetness which I really enjoyed and if it isn't sweet enough for you you can drown it in the syrup. Comes with a pile of collard greens and two perfectly cooked and crispy bacon strips! Definitely recommend. Salted Honey Pie: Saw this as a highlight as well and just went for it. Sweet and salty combination is always a hit. Its like a custard pie with some sea salt on top. Really good. The flaky and buttery crust is the best part. After we left, the restaurant was packed with a line as well. I would come back! read more
