Pink House Cafe - Independence

Welcome – pink house café This is once I am glad that I am with the white rabbit. I found myself in independence for work and decided to take a walk through the city. After I paid my respect to a city hero and read the history of cities, I had worked up a bit of hunger and thought I had seen a sandwich board for something to eat a few blocks back. Just on the street a few blocks was Pink House Café. Here's what I found inside. It was like a step of 2022 and my grandmother's house. The art, wallpapers and boards, the furniture and tablecloths all created the setting for what should be a wonderful culinary experience. Shortly after greeting, from the owner I think and showed to my table I had a cup of coffee and had ordered a Crab meat veggie stirrer. The old style cut hash browns / potatoes, and toast. While I was waiting, I was engaged by a nice lady who said she had decided to treat herself with a nice breakfast at the café. The meal was served and it was time to dig. Fresh crabs and vegetables with a sprinkle of Cheddar cheese and seasoned. Arrangements were also made available. The meal tasted great and made me feel full, but not weighed. When I ate a gentleman came in and sat near me and we met a friendly conversation. It was nice to get out of me, but not to feel alone. The service was great as the food. I'd probably go back. Thanks. 242 D St Independence, OR hours Mon closed Tue Closed From 8am to 8pm to 8pm to 8pm to 8pm to 8pm to 6pm sun. 8:00 p.m.

Updated 3/17/22: Jury is out. Will require a 3rd trip to see if they're solid. Showed some signs maybe of change or transition. I'll update on my next visit. First time here and this place is a hidden gem in Independence. It's a rustic venue and has a mini McMenamins feel. The owners, Jorge and Maria, along with Mirea are super hospitable and make it feel like home. There are many rooms with slightly different settings on both floors. I went with family so I tried five different meals. All were legit!! The Pink House breakfast, Chorizo Scramble, Meat and Veggie Scramble, Veggie Scramble, French Toast, Oatmeal, biscuit and fresh fruit all delivered. This review would be way too long if I dissected all of them but here's the bottom line....I can almost guarantee you can order anything off the menu and you won't be disappointed. From the time we arrived, were seated, received and ate our food, it was a great experience that you need to come and experience. Reservations are accepted too. The Hernandez family and crew are a diamond and are the epitome of great local business. They are why we support local businesses. Props to The Pink House!!

The service was a little disorganized and slower than expected given the small number of customers they had in the dining areas, but it was clear they had a newer crew of wait staff. This had minimal effect on the food, however. My wife had a fritata because it was billed as being gluten-free, and I ordered the biscuits and gravy. There was a LOT of it in the full plate, and it was tasty. We've come here a few times in the past and always been impressed by the place.

Quaint old house with downstairs, upstairs, and outside dining areas. Charming decor great service and excellent home cooked meals. I had the Code fried with a salad. It was a wonderful experience. I will definitely be back. Masks required- order for pick up.

Intimate, breakfast lunch or dinner cafe, multiple outdoor seating areas and cute indoor tables. Best service, and lovely food. Prices are very fair for the quaint decor and peaceful atmosphere. Walk to everything in Independence from this hometown business. perfect for a first date or family get together.
