Review by Eulah

December 10, 2024

Stumbling into Otherside Diner was a delightful surprise! The atmosphere is cozy, adorned with plants that add a refreshing touch. I treated myself to the Hercules Breakfast, which featured fluffy pancakes drizzled with real Maine maple syrup, crispy hash browns, and thick-cut bacon that was truly satisfying.

The staff were friendly, making the solo dining experience enjoyable - my window seat had a great view! If you’re in Portland, this spot is perfect for a hearty breakfast or brunch. Plus, their coffee is top-notch! ☕
