Dawnbringer — Restaurant in Portland

Dawnbringer is a cart that makes really good breakfast sandwiches. I tried the Twilight Tasty. It's bacon, sausage, scrambled egg, cheddar and mayonnaise on a muffin type of bread. Actually it's a bit like if a muffin and a pancake had a love child. It's pretty good but the sausage didn't have as much flavor as one expects from breakfast sausage and I would have rather had a garden variety muffin or perhaps just sliced bread over the love child muffin/pancake. The bacon had great flavor. To be fair, we arrived at 12:30 and we almost were turned away because at first they said they were out of bread...but they managed to find one last offering.

I'm picking on this sandwich a bit but some of that is do to writing an article about breakfast sandwiches. So I had it side by side with a sandwich from Pine State which I liked better.

The Morning Muffin was really delicious, and if you like fishy tasting foods you'll love it. If you don't... You definitely won't like it, as the fish taste is strong in it.

The Solar Sando wasn't quite to my liking as much as I thought it would be. Maybe if it had some sauce to it that'd improve the flavor?

I'm not sure if I'd go back, but the food is definitely unique. I wouldn't call any of it bad, it just wasn't my "cup of tea", but I won't hold that against the review. The service was very...

If you haven’t had the breakfast sandwich from here, you’re seriously missing out. It’s the perfect combination of fluffy eggs, perfectly crisp bacon (or whatever protein you choose), and the freshest, warmest bread you can imagine. Each bite is a little piece of morning heaven, with just the right balance of flavors and textures to kickstart your day. And the best part? The humans behind the counter are an absolute joy. They greet you with smiles that are as warm as the sandwich they’re serving, making the whole experience feel like a moment of sunshine.

Heads up, though—they only accept cash or Venmo, but it’s well worth it. Dawnbringer is not...
