I met up with a friend at the newer location on Alberta after seeing it on my Google Maps. Parking wasn't too bad on a weekday morning and I got a place right on Alberta. The actual building is pretty nondescript and inside the place there's moderate seating. It wasn't very busy so we were able to take our order... More

When in Portland on convention in March 2013, I met up with an ex-student who lives in Portland, and we decided to try out The Waffle Window since she had only heard about it but never been, so it would be a fun way for both of us to go somewhere that was so highly touted on Trip Advisor.

When we walked up to the street corner I initially wondered where the restaurant was. Then I saw it... it's a window, on the side of a building, with a canopied area you can sit in. That's it. This "window" had a line of people waiting, so we decided to go for it. Immediately people in line started talking to... More

There was a group of 5 or 6 people ordering ice cream ahead of me, but I had time and wasn't bothered by the wait. I did notice that there was someone in the back, but I figured they didn't do counter service. When it was finally my turn, the cashier who had been scooping simply went to the back... More

Just like it says, it is the Waffle Window, a window where you order waffles!! Oh, and it is delicious!! I had the waffle with Nutella, Bananas, and whip cream and even though that sounds like desert at 9am, it was awesome!! I wanted to get seconds before I was even halfway finished! They also had sample chocolate covered waffles... More

We had six different waffles over a week in Portland and they were all great. Our favorites were 'the whole farm' and 'jalapeno cheddar'. It will be very busy on Saturday but not too bad on a weekday. They close early on weekdays.

There is a very small seating area inside bread and Ink Ce for Waffle Window customers. The waffle creations are genius, so many things i would never have tried together that are perfect in this instance! Very affordable, making it easy to enjoy a savory and a sweet waffle.

First of all, I am not a big fan of waffles so this may skew the review. I got some type of caramel banana waffle, and while it was good, it is what I would have expected. I think it is more of a novelty Portlandian thing than a true delicacy. The place doesn't open until 8am...REALLY? When you are... More

We had to try the Waffle Window, since it was rated number 1 on Trip Advisor. The area is pretty busy, and parking can be tight- we drove a couple blocks down 36th and were able to park pretty easily. We each ordered a sweet & savory option (4 plates, $19), and were not let down. Just be prepared- the... More

.. when you're in Portland next. Deserve their #1 spot on Tripadvisor. Those waffles are amazing. They taste like our French gauffres ;)
