Bread and Ink Cafe, or simply Bread and Ink, is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.
Bread and Ink Cafe is located in southeast Portland's Richmond neighborhood. Jane and Michael Stern have described the restaurant as a "folksy place" with "interesting" wall art and food which "reflects a sophisticated urban palate". The duo said of the interior, "Bread and Ink is a nice place to sit. Tall windows provide diners with a view of the comings-and-goings on Hawthorne; and tables are outfitted with well-cushioned chairs conducive to leisurely meals and relaxed conversation." [2]
The menu includes grilled curried chicken, jerked game hen, and Italian wedding cake. The hamburger, considered a favorite, has a one-third pound patty on an onion bun with aioli, ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard.
