Crema's Take

Tucked into a charming garden setting in Portland, this cafe excels at thoughtful brunch executed with real care—their smoked salmon Eggs Benedict and perfectly crunchy hash browns earn devoted repeat visitors, while the kitchen shines at accommodating dietary restrictions without compromising flavor. The atmosphere strikes that rare balance of being both lively and cozy, with dog-friendly outdoor seating that makes it a genuine community gathering spot, though its popularity means you'll want to reserve ahead to avoid the inevitable wait.

Eggs Benedict is my favorite, and I always have to try it at new places. This smoked salmon version was to die for! Soooo good! The hash browns were just the right amount of crunchy. Very nice presentation, and the mimosa didn’t skimp on the champagne. Will definitely be back!

I’m a gluten and dairy free gal and this place had so many options for me. They can accommodate all the things and the food was also a 10/10. Wish I lived in Portland to go regularly! Also Katelynn was the BEST server! We had a good time!

My favorite Portland brunch spot. Amazing coffee bar. Delectable food. Friendly staff and a comfy cozy atmosphere. (Especially if you're a dog person 🐶) super popular so make reservations on the weekend!

I went to the Tin Shed during one of the busiest times of the day (MLK day brunch). We waited for close to an hour for a table for a party of 5+2 fur babies. Once seated, the service staff, though super busy, were great and answered our questions before final orders were placed. The food took a little longer to get to the table, but the place was packed. Once the food arrived, it was all super tasty and the portions were generous. We will come back again.

We stayed across the street on our first ever visit to Portland and our experience at Tin Shed was such a bonus to our trip. Not only was the staff incredibly kind and quick, the food was amazing! I can’t thank them enough for trusting my sister and I’d 6 kids to sit at a table by themselves, they didn’t seem out out by our large crowd at all and had the adults sit at the table next to them. They treated all of us with attentive care and in a magical turn of events, the kids took it upon themselves to play the quiet game and enjoyed their meal so much they were speechless and so well behaved. Something about the chill environment and the ability to self serve yourself coffee, tea and water just added to the homestyle feel of Tin Shed. They have a beautiful patio and it is dog friendly! Seriously, everything we ordered was hot, fresh, fast and so so yum!! Just look at the pictures! I can’t wait to go back to this Portland gem in the Alberta Arts District! Thank you, Tin Shed! I miss you already!
