I am just realizing I've never reviewed OhNo cafe!! They are closing soon, which is a sad truth. This place has been a staple in the relationship with my wife since we started seeing each other eight years ago. We LOVE the simplicity of their space, the tinfoil trinkets and the uniqueness of the menu! I ALWAYS get a #1 and add bacon to my sandwich (gotta have it on a bialy).

Good, inexpensive food. Not super special but definitely a neighborhood gem. Hoping the rumors I hear about them closing aren't true.

Local breakfast spot for very reasonable prices. Two of us each ate a breakfast sandwich, shared some hashbrowns and each got a coffee for just under $30 while traveling to Portland. Waited 10 minutes instead of the hours long line at some of the other local cafes in the west end. They all have their pros and cons, this is NOT a fancy artisan cafe- but for us, quick, tasty normal folk food before a day of planned activities was just what we were looking for. Menu is online to preview, sandwich wrapper art in the window- 10/10 recommend for what it is!

All I can say is firreeee! I'm looking for the best salmon lox in Portland and this is one of the top. I got their smoked salmon with spinach and cream cheese on their special bread! All I can say is my sandwich was filled and I will be back! Service was great and a little seating area for you to enjoy your food.

Found this place based on an article I read about it having one of the best sandwiches in the country. I tried their # 7- the spam sandwich. It was a good sandwich and the atmosphere was a lot of fun. I requested the spam be cooked well done and they nailed it. Great customer service.

The hanger steak sandwich is amazing! Get it. We also had a sausage egg and cheese but that tasted exactly as expected. The steak sandwich is a great breakfast after a night out in Portland! It wasn't too busy but we came in March. Could see this spot being crazy during high season.

My favorite item here is the spam sandwich. I usually order online for pickup. Service is quick and convenient, and they have a nice selection of local beverages.

Ohno? More like OH-YES! A friend of ours recommended OhNo! Cafe for breakfast after other places in town were either already closed or had huge lines. We made the walk from Downtown Portland - just a 10 min trek - without knowing what to expect and ended up having an amazing breakfast experience. As soon as we walked in we were surprised by how spacious the place was! It's not only a cafe with food, but they also sell wine and beer to go, and they had quite a selection. With that being said, seating was VERY limited, and as of June 2022 they still did not allow indoor dining. The menu was extensive -- it was difficult to pick something as everything looked so good. I went with the Maple Glazed Prosciutto sandwich and holy cow was it good. You could really taste the maple. It was the perfect combination of flavors. My partner picked the hanger steak sandwich and he loved it, too. The sandwiches were between $6 and $7, with the hanger steak and Scottish salmon ones being more expensive. I thought the food was fairly priced! We took both sandwiches to the nearby Harbor Memorial Park, which has picnic tables, and had a great outdoor breakfast date. Can't wait to come back! PS: They have Coffee by Design coffee.

Another place I saw online that was highly recommended, specifically for breakfast. Wasn't a far walk from the water/our hotel (about 10-15 minutes). The #2 was highly recommended so I grabbed that on a bagel (turkey, egg, avocado, tomato, and gouda) and my girlfriend got the #1 (maple prosciutto, egg, cheddar and Tabasco). We also grabbed two citrus sun teas. Had to get it all to go since they had signs saying no eating in but there was a few empty benches right out front. The #2 was pretty good. Your typical, decent sized breakfast sandwich and had a good amount of meat. I actually liked the #1 a little more, it was sweet and salty from the maple prosciutto and some tang and kick from the Tabasco. Sun teas were good, no sugar but a nice hint of citrus. I definitely see why this is a lot of people's go to sandwich spot! They crank out sandwiches pretty quickly and efficiently and the call to order/online pickup system works pretty well from what I've seen. Give it a try!
