Fuller's Coffee Shop - Portland, OR

Off the tourist path but loved by locals, Fuller's is a taste of the sort of high-quality urban hash house now nearly vanished from most American cities. No fancy meals here, just excellent bacon and eggs and toast from homemade bread, accompanied by good coffee and lots of conversation at the counter.

Actually, the toast comes on a separate plate, but we arranged it around everything else for the picture's sake. Note the crisp bacon ... and the crusty but soft hash browns. This is the way we like to start our day!

I was never offered a bite (and honestly was too busy with my bacon and cheese omelet), but this dish was photo-worthy for sure.  The syrup came heated, a nice and rare touch.

Good coffee is a Portland hallmark. Fuller's serves it in abundance. Buy one cup, get refills throughout the meal.

There are no tables at Fuller's. Its two U-shaped counters make for speedy service and a quiet sense of camaradarie among customers and staff. Here the waitress refills a coffee cup.

This great, old neon clock hangs behind the cash register and adds to the genuine coffee shop atmosphere.

A very inconspicuous place in an off-the-beaten-path neighborhood now known as The Pearl District, Fuller's is a steady beacon of good eats.
