Wonderfully quaint, family owned and run restaurant. Small singing area inside but set up to maximize diners without being crowded. Small outdoor area as well. Arrived around 10:30 and had a very short wait after signing in. Staff was very quick and efficient at seating, order taking, serving, and cleaning. Ordered the western omelette hash browns with sour dough toast) with decaf coffee and water. Hugh portions of very good food. If you love the butter from crust to crust you'll love breakfast here. Coffee was strong and bold with fresh creamer pitcher for each table. Wouldn't recommend for a single diner during a busy time. Shortly after I was seated a table of 13 showed up, then a table of 8 with multiplie 2-4 also. Very popular and singles take valuable multi tops. At that point servers seemed to forget me as they were very busy. One walked by, looked at my coffee cup (almost empty) then continued to other tables. I was by the door so it wasn't as though I was tucked in a corner. Being in a high traffic area had a similar effect though so I get it. Knowing how turned tables equal dollars I placed my card on the edge of my table and waited to catch someone. Asked for a box and to go ahead and charge whatever the bill was (why bother printing and returning, no need to waste their time). CC receipt and box dropped off without a word. Packed my food, signed my check and said thank you to server and left so they could get more diners in. As I said, they are fast and efficient! My original server mentioned that veterans get a free coffee so I will return with my spouse to try the B&G in the future (his favorites).

I have been a die hard fan of Gramma's since in was on Holgate 20 years ago and was happy when it moved into Milwaukie and happy that it has stayed in the family all of this time and the quality has pretty much remained consistent. The only food complaint is that the biscuits are always rock hard. The gravy is one of the best in Portland but I've resorted to just ordering a side for my hashbrowns. Other than that the food is mostly homemade and delicious. The pies are amazing. BUT . . . the service has been so unsatisfactory for me lately and I don't think I'll be back. 1. One day they were having trouble getting hashbrowns so instead (without telling me) they have me horrible dry chunks of potato that they had bought frozen. Hashbrowns are my jam so I'll have to say I was disappointed, but things happen. I just wish I'd known so I could have ordered something else. Then my medium eggs were over hard so I couldn't eat them either. The very nice lady noticed that I hadn't eaten anything but the sausage and toast and told me she'd make it right at the register. When I checked my receipt she gave me $1. off, of a $12. breakfast. . Wow. The next time I went in I was happy to see potato pancakes as a special. I love potato pancakes and it's hard to find them since Hale's closed so I ordered them. Well, they weren't potato pancakes, they were hash-browns with peppers and onion, they did not hold together at all. I actually didn't mind really because I love hash-browns but I told the server (nicely) about it because I was afraid that they were going to get complaints from Latke lovers. I told her that they usually put some kind of binding agent like eggs and or pancake mix or flour to help them hold together. She said they did put eggs in them and we had kind of a back and forth and she said "I guess maybe I don't know what potato pancakes are then". Well that might be and this was all ok until . . . she went to the doorway of the kitchen and relayed everything that I said to the cook, loudly and in a very patronizing way. The whole restaurant could hear it. It was SO humiliating! I felt belittled and embarrassed and I will NOT be back.

Third strike for this place, unfortunately. Dirty glass and lipstick on the rim. Musty and chilly dining room, I left my coat on. Ordered hash browns extra crispy and they arrived half cooked after an extra long time and told me it was taking awhile to get them crispy. From the dining room I could hear the cook complain his stove wasn't hot enough, and he had to start over. Also, last time I was there I had sent the hashbrowns back for more time and they came back as a pile of grease so unappetizing, even the waitress volunteered to reduce our bill without me asking. The waitresses are nice, but one "younger" guy of the two that work there is rude and overbearing. He can be heard complaining in the back from any table you sit at. Its too bad its so dated and musty inside, there is a good view of the river... This place would be perfect for an episode of Restaurant Impossible.

Absolutely amazing food amazing service the friendliest staff the food here is so freaking yummy ๐ I love cornbeef hash and eggs and alot of places either over cook it and make it hard or under cook it. But here they nailed it their German sausage so flavorful the strawberry ๐ waffles are so good you don't even need the syrup. Fresh fruit in the fruit cup so good if you haven't eaten here you definitely need to it's one of those mom and pop home cooking kind of downhome goodness places it just legitimately feels like your at your grandparents house and grandma is cooking for you. So amazing definitely if I could I'd give this place a 100 stars ๐ โจ I can honestly say I know its a couple hours from home for me but I will be making the drive down here on a regular now.

It takes a while to get your food but it's worth it! The clam chowder is so good and actually thick with all the fixings. If you grab a spot outside you can see the river a little and they have it protected from rain and heat lamps so it's warm and dry. Great place for wanting to watch the rain, sip some hot cocoa or coffee and eat some good food. It's just like Grammas house.
