Produce Row Cafe Reviews

Loved the atmosphere and I ended up having some kind of chicken pot pie soup which was really good. However the waiter I had seemed pretty apathetic about working. Took quite awhile to get my bill.

For many years a Portland favorite. Casual. Good food and full bar.

Food was pretty good. Nice outdoor seating. Move very much meat on the steak salad.

Great happy hour spot if you happen to end up in this part of town during happy hour.

Hard to tell what was fresher; the beets or the beats. Delicious fish and chips and a sour beer that keep me puckered up for a while.

Have been a big fan of this place for quite a while. Worth checking out.

If you've got money to burn, and not willing to go to the literally hundreds of better places to eat in Portland, I guess the lounge atmosphere might be worth the high prices. Sure seems to be popular, but dinner fair is lackluster at best.
On the other hand, lunch here was pleasant. The servers are marvelous, as well.
Perhaps just skip the dinner options.

Great ambience, large patio with spaced seated. Feels very covid safe!

Great outdoor patio that's covered in cooler months! Good drink selection.

Had an amazing dinner, the happy hour was great 5 dollars per rye slushie, great deal, food was even better.

Delicious meals. Easy parking. Nice place to have lunch on a weekend.

Great food. Definitely will come back. Parking though was a bit of a hassle at lunch time.

Great place to grab happy hour drinks and snacks during the week. After happy hour ends, the prices get fairly steep. There is also a nice patio outback.

Very busy this day and they delivered to our giant crew of about 20!

It smells like sewer as you enter the restaurant and the food is mediocre

This is a fun place to hang out, they also have a back room for private events.

Excellent service, patient staff -we were with small children, and great food!!

For how nice this place is and how great it has turned out from what it was 3 or 4 years ago, I am surprised that the service is good as well. I really love the meatloaf here, one of the best in town.

Always have and always will love this place.

Other than for the beer flights, fries, and the featured dessert, a ginger snap cookie, I'm in no rush to hurry back. The skirt steak sandwich had no flare to it, the burger had a strong anise note that was simply too overpowering, and the mac and cheese was bland. I can't say much for two of the cocktails either. With so many other choices in PDX, I don't forsee a return trip any time soon. or ever.

Nice dinner in casual setting. Great vegetarian options, or steak if you's rather. Good beer choices. If you are a mac and cheese fan, try theirs, it was good.

I had never heard of this place before, but it was outstanding. It was not crowded and our waiter was very helpful and friendly. The food was great, I could barely decide what to get. My brother ordered something that he didn't like and the waiter offered to bring him something else and didn't even charge us! Eat here.

Great spot! Good selection of beers! Burger was delicious! Make sure to order the beer battered fries!

I don't know why there isn't a choice to rate the food here, but there should be so I could give it a 3! This place is a tad pricey but is more than worth it! Great, healthy, inventive food and amazing service! I will be going here over and over again in the future.

Changed my rating from 4 stars to 2 stars.

The food is mediocre (at best) and the service can be painfully disinterested.

Bartender, Bryce, was super helpful, quick to serve me and answer my questions about the menu and happy hour as well as options on beer. The craft beer selection is awesome the Chupacabra Mexican Lager was muy bien and went perfect with the Black Bean burger. I'm not vegan or vegetarian and regardless settled on the black bean burger and garden salad for a healthy choice and am thoroughly impressed with the quality of the foods and how well they were cooked. The fries were amazing, black bean burger was amazing and the beer was amazing; and of course the quick and helpful service. Highly recommend this place great place for a drink and to bring friends. They apparently have an outside area. Couldn't be more happy with my experience here :).

Always going here jonesing for the boozey slushies.

Fabulous food!!!!!!

Strange location, but the plus is lots of parking. Great bar, attentive but not annoying service, but seriously, the food is really excellent, and a fresh change of pace from some of the Portland restaurants that try too hard to be new or hip.

Fresh flavors, prepared really well.

Good food and service. A little loud but the atmosphere is cozy.

Great service, awesome happy hour and delicious food and beer! Our server's name was Quinn and he did an excellent job,he even put up with us dancing and jamming out to the early 2000's hits they were playing. We had a lovely time and will certainly return.

Good Portland place. Drinks and whiskey pairings are good. The food is always good. Portland bar scene staple.

Great beer selection and chill outdoor patio. Also, AMAZING ART over the booths.

Great mix of atmosphere, good prices, varied menu and attentive service.

Much pricier than before ownership change. Happy hour pretty limited. Good food. Service is hit or miss.

Heated outdoor patio is really nice, even in winter. Tasty, quality food selections.

Everything, from appetizers to entrees to desert was supurbly delicious. And the cider as well.

Not quite as good as i recall - wheres the chicken waffle? Also fried cauliflower was good but when we walked down to Wayfinder they had a similar dish, similar price and it was three times more food. Hopefully sustained competition will bring back some pep here.

Produce Row has a small, but delicious menu. That being said, I am unlikely to go there again due to the poor service we received. Our food took almost 90 minutes to get to us. Drinks were rarely refilled and our server checked on us a small handful of times in the almost 3 hours we were there. We wanted to order more food and drinks, but were never given the opportunity. It's got a great atmosphere and a fabulous patio, but be prepared to be there for awhile.

Fresh, delicious gourmet menu, great drinks, friendly staff and a fantastic outdoor area.

This place has changed a lot since the late '70's/early '80's. I miss the philly cheese sandwiches! Friendly staff and decent fish 'n chips tho.

Cool vibe, friendly staff, nice place to wait for a table at a restaurant that has good food nearby. I wouldn't eat the food here again. Sandwich was tiny, fries and chips were boring, the fish'n'chips was cooked perfectly and was juicy, but they used old oil, so the flavor wasn't good and the rest of the dish was boring [I know, it's fish'n'chips... but... the chips weren't exciting, the coleslaw was bad... I've had better]

Great food.and excellent beer. Nice little hidden spot in Porltand.

It was a large group, and they accommodated well. There were a number of menu items not available :-(

Had a very nice dinner here in the bar. It was a cool evening and the place was just so cozy and inviting. Plus the food was just fantastic - perfectly prepared - and the service was warm and attentive. The wine list was well selected from local quality vineyards. The atmosphere was sort of a low, but energetic and welcoming vibe.

The outdoor patio is cool ... I wish I had more to say but this place lacks its old luster and the food sucks now.
If you know the old spot you d know what I m talking about.

Talk about diamond in the rough! Being from the 'Couve, I'm always surprised by all the different things PDX has hidden away & I seem to miss in my drunken club night visits. It was a pleasant surprise on how nice the interior of this place is w/out the stigma of being snobby. People from all walks of life walked in (white collar, blue collar, families, old friends, new friends, etc...). The staff was really nice and patient and didn't care if you were just hanging out after your meal drinking water. The pulled pork quesadilla was delicioso and the the St Patricks Whisky/Beer special really hit the spot on a stressful day! I would be happy in this place even outside of their Happy Hour! This definitely won't be the last visit...

Not the same Produce Row that we would go to between a band's sets at Eurphoria, but that's not necessarily bad. The place has been cleaned up since those old days, and the menu is upgraded. On the Friday we had lunch there the crowd was sparse. Service was great and the food good. I kind of miss the old dive bar days, though.

Dumpling Week. I really wanted to be able to leave a great review. All over town tonight we've enjoyed dumplings that rated 5 stars... till now. This spaetzle, mushroom, ground mustard variation read like something I would love, even though it isn't even a dumpling. Unfortunately it came up short... seriously short. I gave 2 stars because the beer was good.

Super awesome Patio. Placed was closed for 5 months so previous owner could open The whiskey Library downtown. Glad this place is back in Bizz!

It was nice. Good service. Very good menu of beers and food. I'll go back!

The best brussel sprout appetizer! Entrees were delicious and the desserts fabulous. Our server was personable and attentive.

Great atmosphere & better food! I had a salad & they made just how I wanted it due to certain dietary restrictions. Keep up the good work, Produce Row Cafe!
