Also available on their large menu are a Pub Biscuits and Gravy, Guinness Braised Beef Brisket Hash, a million breakfast sandwiches, fun open-faced toasts such as the Avocado, the Eggy and the Veggie Full English Breakfast Toast. Kingsland has an open and spacious feeling with plenty of seats to feed your crowd or just you, if you’re in the mood for the full English of bangers, eggs, roasted tomatoes and mushrooms, baked beans and HP Sauce (veggie option too). It’s one of the most solid and accessible places to eat brunch in Portland. We are huge fans of Kingsland Kitchen for their proper English breakfast dishes as well as solid and creative takes thereon, and its convenient downtown location (across the street from the newly remodeled Stumptown Coffee).

There are so darn many places to eat brunch in Portland that are very popular and serve delicious morning fare that aren’t on this guide, solely because we didn’t think the food was as good as that of the restaurant that we did include in its same category (in other words, we’ve only included one restaurant per “category”). We sampled the popular spots, including the mob-scene brunch places, the formal and casual restaurants, and everything in between. Now, if a restaurant is open during breakfast and lunch hours with no defined menu, we have included it as a brunch restaurant. We’ll highlight those in our upcoming post on Portland breakfasts.

When deciding where to eat brunch in Portland, for this guide we’ve not included some of our favorite breakfast spots in town (sorry Proud Mary, Broder, Sweedeedee, Podnah’s, Pepper Box, and more) or restaurants that do not offer a specific “Brunch” menu but rather “All-Day Breakfast and Lunch” menus.

Therefore if you are on the hunt for a delicious brunch in Portland, you’ll need this guide to our 15 top spots. We now have brunch metropolises and Portland is one of them. With shifting cultural, economic and demographics at play over the years, modern brunch is more of an Urban Millenial zeitgeist marker, a preferred means to spend disposable income, a more viable budgetary option for dining out as compared with dinner, a time for socializing and often a time to ease out of hangover and into a civilized weekend.

Historically the mid-morning meal that came to be known as brunch was borne of humble family origins and often enjoyed at the family table after worship services or, in the case of indulgence or special occasion, at a local restaurant on holidays.

There are so many great places to eat brunch in Portland that it’s hard to arrive at 15 “best” spots, and judging from the wait at nearly all of them, you’d never guess that restauranteuring is a fickle endeavor.
