Little Griddle Hawthorne
3566 SE Hawthorne Blvd, Portland, OR
Crema's Take
“Little Griddle Hawthorne is a beloved Portland breakfast destination where the kitchen turns out legitimately excellent homemade comfort food—think fluffy French toast, crispy breakfast biscuits, and fresh vegetable hash—paired with genuinely great coffee that doesn't get lost in the shuffle. The tight, lively space fills quickly on weekend mornings, but the staff moves through the chaos with impressive ease, getting food out fast without sacrificing quality, and the whole vibe feels like a neighborhood gathering spot where families and friends actually want to linger. It's the kind of place where every detail matters, from the quality of the hot chocolate to the way the potatoes are cooked, making it worth the occasional wait.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
