Editorial Review for Francis – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Large handmade tables and oversized wooden chairs fill the smallish space of the restaurant. Fresh flowers and light streaming in through the picture windows create a pleasant atmosphere for lounging on a Saturday morning over a cup of Stumptown coffee. Breakfast items range from organic eggs Benedict and apple turkey sausage to overnight oatmeal pancakes, with toasted Hazelnut butter. Lunch options include a variety of salads, pan-fried oysters and the three-bean burger sandwich.

User Reviews for Francis

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

05/26/2008 Posted by rachelcarter54

After passing by this restaurant many times, I finally decided to go in and try it. What a mistake! The food was TERRIBLE!!! We were a party of 4, and ordered a couple of sides and 4 entrees. Every single dish was either undercooked (the meats), bland (the gravy), or somehow else botched (the pancakes were burnt on the edges and goopy in the middle). To top it off, our server was rude and acted like he had better things to do than take our orders. Our water glasses never even got refilled. What a pathetic excuse for a restaurant!

Pros: near other restaurants that we could go to afterwards for real food

Cons: terrible food, terrible service, way to pricey for what it is
