Portland, OR
Harry currently ranks 10 brunch spots in Portland, scoring 81–89 on the Harry Score. One carries critic or guide backing. Prices run $$ to $$$.
Harry is professionally sceptical of brunch. The waiting list is too long, the Bloody Marys are too expensive, and the eggs Benedict are too often on a muffin from a bag. What survives — when it works — is one of the great informal meals. He scores harder here because with stakes this low, getting it wrong is unforgivable.
