Capers Cafe et Le Bar - Portland, Oregon

The $6 mimosas are a steal!

I was able to walk straight up and sit at the bar. The server was attentive and checked in on me regularly. They were friendly and a joy to speak with.

For $6 each, I was impressed with the quality of the mimosa and the experience I had.

While I didn't have any food or coffee this trip, I would be happy to try something next time.

I rarely place poor reviews unless the business truly deserves it. Please allow me to explain. My wife and I encountered a server who, in my opinion, after how we were treated or miss-atended, it was clear she hates her job, customers, and does not respect her employers. This person should not be serving anyone. In addition to my wife and I, she proceeded to run off about 20+ customers in a matter of minutes, leaving their restaurant practically empty. We arrived at 10:10 a.m., and the server walked by our table, not even stopping to greet us, nor to offer bar drinks or water. She just said, "The kitchen stopped serving breakfast, and I don't know when they will begin serving lunch." I asked about how long this wait might be, if a few minutes or more. She responded, "I don't know sometimes it's 30 to 45 minutes," and she proceeded to walk off without offering us a glass of water or a bar drink, nor other available snacks. After a few minutes, as I saw her cleaning glasses behind the bar, I asked her if we could possibly order bar drinks or water while we waited for the kitchen to change service. She didn't look happy about me asking. She begrudgingly walked over to our table and asked in these exact words, "What do you want to drink?" AS if she was doing us a great favor. I was shocked at the attitude. This horrible attitude insenced us, so my wife and I couldn't do more than to get up and walk away. Our flight wasn't for 2 hours, we had plans to have a full lunch here with at least a couple of barr drinks each. I figure just on us, this server cost her employers at least $130. If you multiply this by the 20+ other couples she did this to, I estimate a loss of at least $1,200. I can't speak to the food because we weren't given the opportunity to taste it. I truly hope this business can adjust this huge discrepancy. See the empty tables in my pictures.

I placed an order at 5:50am on 9/19/19 and paid for a Chicken Cesar Salad, #7 Bagels and Lox, and a Breakfast Scone plus a bottle of water. The cashier was very nice, personable. After waiting between 10 and 15 minutes and seeing everyone after me receiving their orders I asked the cashier about the order. She asked someone else, who asked someone in the kitchen area. I heard the kitchen person's response, which was "I didn't see any lox downstairs." So the kitchen just left the order pending because they didn't have lox, but apparently they weren't going to mention it to whoever was in charge. I asked for a refund because my flight was boarding, and asked the person in charge to comp me the salad. She said no, only the Bagels and Lox. I left unhappy. On the plane I discovered they hadn't put the scone in the bag either, so all we had to eat was the salad. Here are some pics of the old lettuce we found when digging down under the top layer. Nice, what a great meal. Thanks a lot Capers. They get two stars because the staff was friendly.

Honestly for an airport restaurant this place is exceptional. The food is good (especially by airport standards) and the servers are nice, even helpful! I stop there for food and a cocktail ahead of all my flights 🙂

This place SUCKS !! I was traveling with my wife and this servers named jack , was 100% rude! No customer service what so ever ! Treated us with no respect and acted completely racist towards us ! 0 stars if I could !

Coffee is unsinkable. Tastes like it’s 4 days old. Bitter. Yuk. Potatoes, 2 eggs and toast; $18. Total highway robbery.

This little cafe located at the Portland Airport was conveniently located at the second floor by the gates so we can make use of time for fun and eat while waiting for flights. The food we found were laid out in boxes and cleanly labeled with names.
My favorite in here was Hummus wrap, that satisfied all my cravings.
We can take out or eat there as well.

I don’t know about the other reviews but I had a great experience here. Had an amazing salmon sandwich and a few mamosas. I thought the price was really good an airport. The waiter was very nice too.
