I really enjoyed this place. The atmosphere is totally Portland! I love it. The vending machine made me laugh! Most of all the bartender Rosie was amazing we had a great talk and went out of her way for us because pancakes are over at 4 pm and I was there at 5 but she talked to the cook and I got pancakes. Great experience! The only thing I didnt like is there is only 2 fountain soda flavors but thats not a huge deal everything else made up for that
Seemed trendy at first but really was stuffed full of charm. I just missed the breakfast rush so there was no wait. On the back deck just enough shade to not be really hot very very chill. I ordered the gorilla biscuit, my server suggested a fried egg in top. It was beautiful and delicious. I think any style egg would work inside or on top. Normally I add pepper, but just a dab of hot sauce around the edges was all it needed. Perfectly seasoned with great flavor.. I will be going back. Ps the bacon was thick and mouth watering, cooked but not dry.
While it might not look like much from the outside, Blackheart is a little gem that personifies Portland perfectly. It has its own character in an adult breakast/lunch bar with outside seating and a unique look inside.I dont eat red meat and ordered a Brunch Burger with a beyond burger instead of beef and veggie bacon instead of regular bacon. After I made my substitutions clear the person taking my order, Rosie, was very astute and asked if I wanted egg or not, with the intuition that I was vegan (Im not, but it was nice that they were thoughtful enough to make sure I was being given everything according to my restrictions).Overall, the burger and included hashbrowns were absolutely delicious! The sauce on the burger was tasty and abundant, the pattie had a slight crisp to it which I loved, and the house made pickles and lemonade were sweet and tart but not overpowering.My only complaints that keep it from a 5-star rating are that the ketchup had some black residue around the top and cap, and the booth seat cushions fell off at the slightest movement forward so getting comfortable was a bit difficult.Other than that, it was a fantastic experience!
There were so many delicious-sounding things on the menu, it was hard to choose! We got the Nashville chicken sandwiches, which were giant! The server was very friendly and I appreciated her honesty in sharing which dishes she liked and which she wouldn’t recommend. Plus...you HAVE to check out the vending machine out back!
I kinda fell in love yesterday, tbh. Their egg sardou was delicious (I devoured it). The back patio is sweet and they have WiFi. I mean... Love going midweek, as they seem not to be busy at that time. Chilling on the patio with my laptop over a delicious lunch sounds just about right! Will definitely be back when I can enjoy one of their house cocktails (Im looking at you, CBDB OMFG!)Edited to add: Today, I introduced my kiddo to Black Heart after spending the day at Oxbow Regional Park on a field trip. We needed to refuel. I had the Scrambler (OMG) and he ordered a single pancake. There are now two huge fans in the family.In addition to very tasty food, we had a tech issue with my payment and they were patient and accommodating. I peeked out back, and they have the patio covered for winter, altho we chose to sit inside in a comfy both. Cant recommended enough.
If 21+ burbon syrup with your chicken & waffles, a dark aesthetic, and a server named Coyote sound like a good time... Well, its because it is.Theres parking on the premises, so if its not too busy you can easily snag a spot for your gas guzzler. The Vegetarian and Vegan options are plenty, as they offer alternatives for most of the dishes on the menu. I got the Fried Chicken Benny with a side of hash browns (so good). My friend got the Vegan Chicken & Waffles with burbon syrup and she digged that too.10/10 would sacrifice a morning or evening to eat here.
Had high hopes for this new breakfast spot in my neighborhood. We ate on the small patio out back. Cool little spot to sit outside. The food was good and reasonably priced. Not cheap, but reasonable. My Fried Chicken Benedict was delicious. Very crispy and well seasoned. However, the service left much to be desired. We were one of 2 occupied tables when we arrived. We had to go find our server to order after she brought our coffee. She had forgotten about us. One of 2 tables. My friend ordered the pancakes and 2 over easy eggs on the side. Eggs did not arrive with the pancakes. The cook had to redo the eggs. The redo came out with a broken yolk. If your cook cant do over easy eggs, you may need a new cook. Just sayin. I ate my Benedict and finished my coffee, but the promise of a refill on the coffee never came. I requested a refill when she went to retrieve our bill. The coffee she poured for me was cold. Not luke warm. Cold. Probably wont be back.
Most incredible location! Best food. Awesome owners. Killer staff. Unique and creative drink menu. A local restaurant that deserves a TON of success. 100000 stars!
Awesome place. The burger was incredible and I believe the collard greens were the best Ive ever had. And beer! Dont even get me started that the bartender was rocking a Kate Bush shirt.
Stopped here for a late lunch. The server was very nice, personable. The Gorilla biscuit was fantastic. The fried chicken was crisp, but tender and juicy on the inside. The gravy was delicious. The Crimson and Clover cocktail was also delightful. Will definitely come back.
Amazing bar! Vegetarian here so ordered the tofu bites. Really soft, liked the dip.Ordered the new rose cocktail which was amazing.Loved the music as well!
Fun vibes, good food, and friendly staff. I had the chicken & waffles which were the most complementary I’ve ever had, one without the other wouldn’t be as good! The menu had a wide variety, I would definitely try them again!
While I was there, a member of our party had multiple diet restrictions and/or food allergies. The bartender and cook consulted and were able to offer a modified version of something that wasnt usually even on the menu for that time of night. Thats truly exceptional service.I had the amazing biscuits and gravy. Its been weeks so I dont remember the name but I saw someone else eating it so I had to have it. Not disappointed.
This place is fantastic. The food is excellent, with great vegan options. Service is great, and friendly even when theyre swamped. Atmosphere is very cool. People are friendly. Honestly, I cant think of anything bad about this place. Drop what youre doing and go. GO- right now! You can thank me later.
The best Biscuits and Gravy in Seattle. Yes, better than Pine State Biscuits. Fried Chicken was perfect. A must try, bring your appetite
This place is small and they have minimal vegan options. Mostly vegetarian options. It was Saturday night and only one bar tender/waitress and she killed it. She did a wonderful job. The food wasnt bad nothing great. The drink where ok to. The atmosphere was awesome. Kind of dive bar kind of old school.
Had their shrimp and grits with A TON of Cajun cream sauce and a big ol biscuit - and these were some REAL grits, yellow and substantial. The kind you get in the South 👏🏾👏🏾😍😍🍤🍤 My server (Rosie Q?) was awesome, too.
Great place for all day breakfast food, and delicious cocktails. Punk AF, Vegan friendly, and an intentional safe space. Would recommend the rotating cocktail and the chicken (or tofu) and waffles.
Cozy spot with post punk and new wave jams playing. The patio area felt like I was hanging out at one of my friends house. Bar tender Rosie was so cute and friendly.
Blackheart has a super welcoming staff, comfortable vibes, and great music. Also, the fried chicken is, quite possibly, the best in Portland. Shrimp and grits aint bad, either.
Ive been here 4 times for brunch and the food has always been great. They used to do everything from scratch, including their whipped cream, but dont do it anymore. The service, however, is consistently terrible. I keep going just because the food is so great.
Small restaurant and bar. Didnt go for food but the menu had breakfast available until 4, and a smaller menu for the later night crowd! I will certainly be going back to try their food. Drinks were made pretty tasty, and the service was good. It was just so cold inside! Couldnt take my coat or scarf off, and even with it on I wish I had a hat. They did end up turning on a heater around 10:15 at night...
We ordered the brunch burger to share. Didnt realize it was missing the egg and cheese until we were almost finished. The burger and hash browns were good anyway, it would have been nice to have a little quality control. The bartender was far from friendly so we may not have said anything anyway.
Good brunch and good drinks. Vegan options available even for the most un-vegan things on the menu, e.g. fried chicken. Metal vibe with chill atmosphere. Get a pitcher of mimosas if youre hung over.
The food is excellent, service is too. I also really love the vibe - laid back, not pretentious, feels really cozy. Back patio looked awesome, will have to come back and check it out.
Southern style brunch food served here! Just what I needed! I had the Gorilla Biscuit with an egg on top (recommended by RosieG) & a side of Collard Greens! I left full, happy & needing a nap! THANKS Yall!
I think I’d give BLACKHEART 3.5 stars. The service was pretty good, the coffee was decent +, I loved the punk rock decor and soundtrack, but my dish was decent. I had the chicken-n-waffle. The chicken and syrup were excellent, but the waffle was not so good. Maybe it was vegan and gluten free? I don’t know, but it definitely needs improvement. I will be back though to try more items from the menu.
Fantastic food with awesome service in a fun, eclectic space. The Gorilla Biscuit is the bomb with savory sausage gravy and really crispy, yet light fried chicken. The pancakes were light and eggy without being overly fluffy and bready. Best of all, the servers were fun and friendly!
Good food, quality drinks, and great service. Im surprised it was as quiet as it was when we went, but then again it was a Tuesday night. Perfect for a little date.The vegetarian options are out of this world.
Fun atmosphere. Delicious food (can cater to dairy and gluten sensitivities). Creative and tasty cocktails. Blackheart never ceases to surpass my expectations. Highly recommend.
The food there is AMAZING! Service was a bit slow but in the end, well worth the wait. Definitely recommend and will be eating here again ^^
Excellent dinner from their always available brunch menu. I had the Gorilla Biscuit (large biscuit covered with spicy sausage gravy and topped with fried chicken and bacon). The menu reflects a strong southern / New Orleans comfort food influence. They also a wide selection of craft cocktails.
Loved it!!! The food was delicious and the Thai Tee Tie might be my new favorite drink! The staff was so great even though it was slammed. Totally made it all worth it!
The food was absolutely incredible! I recommend the pancakes and the shrimp and grits! Our waitress was very sweet! Such a wonderful experience!
One of my favorite brunch spots in the city. No frills, but by no means a dive. Incredible staff with punk atmosphere.
*update* Forget what I said, this place is on point with their food and drinks. I went on a fluke day, and Ive totally changed my mindService was attentive as possible considering the restaurant was full with only 2 waiters during Sunday brunch. Sat down at our table 11:20, didnt get our cold food till 1:20. Apparently a chef didnt show up for work, so the entire restaurant had to wait. Its really unfortunate, the menu looked promising.Food was comped and the waiter was apologetic, but wont be going back after that experience.
Place is good, but execution was lacking. Drinks were excellent, but we waited an hour for our food and when it came out it was completely cold - congealed egg yolks and gravy you could use as brick mortar. Unfortunate as the flavor was great.
Amazing new menu items are a must try! Friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Love coming to this neighborhood spot!
Cool bar with an upscale pirate theme, crafty drinks and nice people! The food is much better than youd expect from a bar as well, the BLT is amaaazing.
What an amazing place! I cannot say enough good things about Blackheart, from the creative & delicious drink menu to the incredible food that Brian makes. Beautiful food, lovely ambiance, wonderful staff.
Good food and drinks. Limited food menu. Be ready to wait; popular place and limited seating.
I love this place Everytime, the food is basically delicious and the staff are great. I always love the music theyre playing and I dig the decorum and the vibes. 🖤🖕🖤
This place is truly unique. Great service, food and atmosphere.
Had a Black Heart and the Black Heart Burger, and both were fantastic. The pickles are sweet though, not Dill, so be warned.
Service was lovely and attentive. We were seated quickly, and staff were very accommodating. And now the food, the food was A-maz-ing!!! Patio was lovely.
Beena minute since Ive been there, but meant to post this. Great place, awesome selection, great drinks, cool staff, cool decor. Im definitely hitting this place up next time Im in town.
Best brunch in Portland in all honestly! Bourbon syrup for the win
I tried the empanadas and they were fantastic! the back patio is HUGE and they have a fun vending machine full of oddities!
Yum! Cool vibes. Good service. I will be back.
Great chicken ceaser salad ,made with a slightly roasted romaine lettuce
Hip vibe. Friendly and attentive staff. I got the scramble and it was dairy free (to my specification) and delicious! My husbands Guerilla biscuit was out of this world! Plus, our drinks hit the spot. We are already planning our next trip to Blackheart. This was Saturday morning so they were quite busy, but our food was timely. Yum!
Trout and TroutmanBurger King is a good movieI think I might of over-clocked on the way to the game.I think youd make a great point when you get here.
Best biscuit and gravy Ive had so far the gravy has a very mellow burn and the fried chicken was Wonderful not greasy and extremely flavorful breading and sinfully moist inside over all an amazing meal
BLACKHEART is out of business. Taken over by new owners and named The Mont. Currently breakfast, lunch, and bar.
Love the atmosphere here! Good food, drinks, and servers
Vegan chicken and waffle sandwich was good yet very small. Vegan chicken and waffles dish came with a tiny thin waffle drowning in syrup. Service was friendly.
The Minor Threat is a major success. Also loved my breakfast which was the Gorilla Biscuit.
Little known secret, escape the crowd at this 80s punk emo inspired joint.
Absolute favorite spot for breakfast on days where I have to trudge through a lot of BS. Stay cool, Blackheart!
Awesome gravy over bisquit, OMG!! Friendly, prompt service, great prices! Blackheart drink was really good too!
The best fried chick and waffles Ive had! Bourbon maple syrup...yum! Great vibe
I crave their pancakes like everyday. I love this place so much!
Great after work spot for cocktails and late night Breakfast. Love the staff and the ambiance.
Great patio, very fun/smart/friendly service, interesting menu (especially if you want bread)
Delicious soul food with a welcoming vibe and full of eccentricity.
This new eatery is awesome beyond my expectations. I had fried chicken on a flakey butter biscuit, topped with a poached egg and drizzled with a perfect amount of hollandaise. The staff were friendly and obviously excited to be there. I will be back with friends.
Great service, very good food. Tons of vegetarian options.
Loved this place! Great atmosphere and food.
This is brunch review. I really wanted to like this place, but let’s just say my experience was less than spectacular. First off, the service was incredibly slow. It wasn’t entirely the server’s fault though, because they seemed short staffed. Still, they forgot about us...twice. We never got any water, I needed to ask for silverware 3 times, and we never had our coffee refilled. The only thing that was quick was the check. Apparently they didn’t forget that. Our server was very apologetic and friendly though. She even gave us a discount.Now the food. Unfortunately our unpleasant brunch experience continued as the food was subpar. Weak coffee, burnt pancakes, burnt, interesting-tasting (not in a good way) sausage and 2 orders of scrambled eggs that tasted completely different. One warm and tasty, the other cool and bland. Meanwhile the chicken and waffles consisted of a small but decent piece of fried chicken on top of a not decent flat rubbery “Belgian” waffle saturated with syrup. The cocktails were okay though. Nothing special, but fine.The only reason I’m giving 2 stars instead of one is because of the friendly staff, and that it’s relatively new and maybe still finding its way. Other than that, nothing worked, and it we were very disappointed.
Best damn biscuits and sausage gravy Ive ever put in my cakehole
Interior was brighter than I remembered albeit a little cold. Waitress was nice. Menu items were cleverly named. Lots of options for vegetarians. Most of the menu items seem pretty heavy (ie carb-y/dense). Tons of drink options, especially boozy ones.Im not much of a drinker so started with coffee which was not good, cant put my finger on it, but it was so bad that I checked the menu for the brand and made a mental note not to get it ever again. Got the sardou, tasty, but seemed to lack complexity as the main flavor was dill. My friend got the shrimp and grits which was good but a bit too spicy, covering up any flavors.Not sure if Ill be back but go check it out for yourself.
My new favorite place is Blackheart. Its my Cheers. Awesome vibe, yummy food and drinks. Its BADASS. And if youre the type of person to say BADASS then these are your people and you should go.
10/10! Food is amazing 10/10. Ambience is chill af 10/10! Beer is cold 10/10!
The food is horrible. HORRIBLE. All the food in Portland is bad now. I blame the newcomers who are constantly raving about how good the food is; everywhere they go. Blackheart is in the former Wild Abandon space. They did an amatuer-ish job of re-upolstering the benches, but didnt replace the damaged foam, so you sink into a hole when you sit down. The punk rock vibe is exaggerated. Dont go there!
The food was delicious and Christy was an amazing waitress.
Super friendly, eclectic design, great place toDiscover comfort food and cocktails
Love the vegan brunch selection, and their mix Ed drinks are delish.
Fun rock theme restaurant and bar, great cocktails, front and back patio seating too
Great food great service 11/10 would go again
Great food great service!
Exceptional little spot with a great patio, food and service
Fun bar with lots of vegan options on offer, great bathroom signage
The food is great. That said they dont staff to take care of their customers. I didnt receive items ordered. It was painful to get a refill. The bill was difficult to acquire as well. Worth a vist during slow hours avoid during peak.
Whatever you do, dont go here... And certainly dont try the Benedict. 😉🤗
Used to be called The wild abandon had good food now its a typical bar with TV screens and patrons lining the bars for cheap drinks
Waffle sanmich gud
OMG - the shrimp and grits are DELICIOUS and the drinks and atmosphere are fantastic. Ill be back soon!
Best fried chicken I have had in Portland hands down
Great brunch menu! Great CBD drinks!
