I can remember that I wasn't incredibly impressed with this place. The breakfastguy I think really likes this place, he'll have to post his reasons for you...hint, hint.
The prices here are on the average to high side. The seating is somewhat scrunched and it's a bit noisy, whine, whine. Maybe I was in a bad mood this day. Our server was nice, so nice that she served us before the people sitting next to us who had been there long before we arrived, oops. The food is homemade, they have yummy pastries and interesting varieties of breakfast choices. It is definitely a fun little eclectic cafe, so go try it out and give the breakfastguy a high five!

Okay, I've been called out!
I don't "really" like the Cricket, I just think it's a classic Southeast place, with a little grunge here and there and occasionally stoned-out service.
The food is alright, although I know people who think it isn't. But mainly what they have going for them is ridiculous portions and huge variety. The menu is like four big pages long, and you can build your own omelet.
They roast their own coffee, by the way.
Glad to see you posting again!
Mmm. I love to go here with my boyfriend and then take a big lazy nap. It's greasy comfort food-delicious! He says the apple french toast is the best he's ever had (but it doesn't fill you up). Had a hot drink here once and it was so overpowered with rum I could barely stand it. We like the cute waitress with cowboy boots.
Okay, so greasy and delicious don't necessarily make a debut together on my palate, but to each his own right?! I'm glad you like it. That's what I love about Portland, there's something for everyone!
