History
Reception
Kristi Turnquist and Michael Russell of The Oregonian included Bijou in a 2019 "ultimate guide to Portland's 40 best brunches".[4] Donald Olson of Frommer's rated the cafe 1 out of 3 stars and wrote, "It's a good spot for breakfast and lunch (dinner is only served Fridays, but then its accompanied by live jazz). This downtown fixture has remained in business because of its fresh organic food, and because it offers some specialties that you won't find elsewhere else in Portland... It's a nice, non-scenester Portland place to know about."[9] Thrillist has called the lunch and dinner menus "great" but said "the real highlight is the brunch specials".[10]
