Industrial Cafe and Saloon

Industrial Cafe and Saloon operated in the ground floor of a condominium in northwest Portland's Northwest District.^[2] Willamette Week said the interior had a full bar and a "chic concrete-and-exposed-pipes aesthetic" with metal furnishings.^[2][3] The small restaurant was reportedly "made up of 95% reclaimed industrial materials",^[4] and raised pasture-fed cattle on the owner's private ranch in St. Helens.^[5][6]

The American^[7] menu included burgers, grits,^[6] smoked chicken wings, Hawaiian-style beef ribs, a Reuben sandwich,^[8] fritters, salmon cakes, pan-fried chicken breast with spicy bread crumbs,^[2] and comfort foods like biscuits and gravy, chicken pot pie, a muffuletta sandwich,^[9] and macaroni and cheese.^[10] The grass-fed burger was served with bacon, fried egg, guacamole, or deep-fried jalapeños.^[5] Salad options included Caesar with chicken, salmon or bay shrimp, as well as a spinach variety with hard-cider vinaigrette.^[2]

The "quirky" brunch menu included breakfast salads,^[11] egg-and meat entrees, pancakes, and fritters.^[10] The Gears and Gravy had two buttermilk biscuits with pork sausage gravy and sage; the restaurant also had a mushroom rosemary vegetarian option.^[12] The dessert menu included Ms. Margaret's chocolate-chip bundt cake topped with whipped cream, a tribute to the cook's neighbor from North Dakota.^[2]

Industrial was owned by Mary Starr and Russ Hubbard.^[13]

Guy Fieri visited the restaurant for an episode of the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.^[14][15]
