Exceptional breakfast

This was fantastic- a runny poached egg. Just delightful. I miss it just thinking about it! Great spot.

Impressed

We're driving through OR, and stopped to eat.

I was really impressed. I'm dairy free due to allergy. Their mac and cheese was quite good. It's a really chill environment. The server/owner was really nice.

Pros: Mac and cheese, Pretzel , Cheesecake

Cons: Collard greens (too salty)

Brunch time

Brunching at the Bye and Bye is great. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the people. Fun menu and good food. This was my first experience with the Yo Egg and would order it again.

Pros: Menu, Atmosphere , Location near shopping

Unique food options and awesome atmosphere

We came in for a late dinner and some drinks. We had the peanut broccoli bowl which was super unique, and then topped it off with the mac and cheese. The food was tasteful and filling. Would recommend for a late night better-than-bar-food option.

Bye and Back again

Always my place to go whenever I shop at the Natural Grocers several blocks down the street. Often have hard to decide what to order. Everything is so good! Expect to spend minutes finding a park, though.

Pros: Comfort food variety

Cons: The parking!

Great space, staff and prices

Flavour of both dishes were awesome, and at a reasonable price point 👌
Huge front patio and covered back patio and so many little nooks inside.

One of a kind

This was my first experience at a fully vegan pub and it truly impressed me. Bonus points it was walking distance to our house. My favorite thing on the menu is the spaghetti or for a real treat- Pretzels and cheeze dip!!! If you aren’t a drinker- they have great kombucha and other options. Dog friendly ! Great patio space. Gets a bit loud indoors, but it’s a pub!!

Pros: Comfort food menu , I wish every pub was vegan! , Dog friendly and non-alcohol options

Cons: Parking (we were lucky road our bikes or walked) , Gets pretty loud inside (but it’s a pub!), Hard to think of a third…

I didn’t talk till my food was gone!

So good!! We ordered the chips and salsa, pretzel knots, and the Weeping Tiger Sandwich. It all came out at the same time and I went for the sandwich first. I didn’t say another word till it was gone! I’m laughing writing about it 🤣 like let’s pay some respect in silence for this delicious sandwich!! 🙌🏼 Finding a good vegan sandwich is no easy task so hats off to Bye and Bye! That being said, I do think toasting the bread would allow it to better hold through eating the sandwich. The bread fell apart within two bites just because it’s soft. Since I ate the sandwich first the other two food items were not necessary and my taste buds weren’t having it.

OMG, the BBQ Brussels

My partner and I were hungry after a show and pickings can be slim in Portland the later it gets. I looked up this bar and OMG, I was so pleased. The menu was vegan and they had fantastic priced cocktails. The bar is well decorated and the staff are definitely friendly.

Pros: BBQ BRUSSELS , Late hours, Good cocktails

Cons: A little hard to find in the dark.

100% Vegan Bar!

The Bye and Bye has been a staple for me since I first moved to Portland. It's a charming spot with excellent drinks & food, all of which happens to be vegan & affordably priced given Portland standards. Their patios are excellent & Alberta is my favorite street in Portland. I look forward to visiting often.

Fantastic food, drinks, ambiance

We loved everything about this place! The food is amazing. We especially loved the Weeping Tiger tofu sandwich, the meatball sub, and the Italian deli sandwich. The pretzel knots were also great. The soy curl buffalo wrap was good, but I think I've found that I'm just not that into the "buffalo" flavor in general - no fault of theirs, though. I'm looking forward to trying their bowls and brunch. The drinks were excellent, and I was impressed with how fancy the zero proof cocktails were for a very good price. The outdoor seating is plentiful (two patios!) and dog-friendly. Love that they are open late and are an option after many other places have closed for the night.

Top fav vegan restaurant ever

I tell everyone about this place and come here almost every time I'm in Portland (which is often). I've had over half the menu items and they're all insanely delicious, my top favs are the buffalo wrap and the weeping tiger. The meatball sub gets an honorable mention. I've taken multiple non-vegan people here who also have raves about the food (including one friend who swore he hated vegan food and really liked everything he got).

tasty affordable nourishing vegan cuisine in an all vegan bar

The Bye and Bye is an all vegan bar in NE Portland. I am a teetotaler so don't drink yet am a longtime vegan so came here for the vegan food.

Friendly service and comfortable ambience here. There is a wide range of vegan options to choose from. There was a couple of bowls that looked interesting. My server recommended the BBQ Brussels Bowl so this is what I went for.

It came with BBQ tofu, Brussel sprouts, and brown rice. It was super tasty and nourishing. Recommended!

Good size portion and price was affordable. I would definitely come back here to explore more of the menu.

Pros: tasty affordable nourishing vegan cuisine , friendly service, lovely ambiance

Great brunch

It was a must visit pub while in Portland and it didn’t disappoint. I loved my chicken and waffles! Pretzel knots were great too. Next time, I would love to try regular menu.

One of the best vegan places in the world

I've been coming since it first opened and it's not only my favorite place in Portland but one of my favorite vegan restaurants in the entire world. Everything on the menu is awesome. There are lots of good drinks. It's common now but they were one of the first to serve drinks in mason jars. And the vibes here are cozy af.

Pros: Great food, Great drinks, Lofi ambience

Cons: Expensive

Simple/Basic Vegan Food

The food is *good*, but too simple. Two of the three bowls we got could EASILY be recreated at home, and also probably better and cheaper. The Mac and Cheese bowl was the only one that felt special. The Buffalo soy curl wrap was also delicious, but needed more ingredients besides a little lettuce. The wrap is literally just a mountain of soy curls in Buffalo mayo. Get some more veggies in there, please!

Overall, nice location and vibe. Nothing we ate was bad. If you’re wanting some basic vegan dishes that you don’t have to make yourself, definitely give to is place a try.

Pros: Clean vegan food, Nice location and seating options

Cons: Many dishes too basic for the price

The Italian Sub is fantastic. The rest of my group had the breakfast sandwich, avocado toast and waffle with fruit and whipped cream. Everything was top shelf and tasty.

Ok

Maybe we just ordered the wrong items but I thought this place was not that great. I had the spaghetti, hard to get spaghetti wrong but it was so plain and sad. Garlic bread is also one of my favourite things in the world but it was tasteless. I hate to judge a place off one item but at least if you go don’t get the spaghetti. If you are just visiting Portland there are much better places in my opinion.

Pros: Affordable , Atmosphere

Cons: Tasteless, Not healthy , Where are the veggies/salad?

Great & Great

They brought back the BBQ plate, and it's fantastic. Literally, the collard greens, black-eyed peas, and BBQ tofu are so goddamn packed with flavor that it's mind blowing. I also always order the Bye & Bye drink because it's like 3 drinks in one of liquor.

Pros: Great vegan menu, Friendly and fast service, They have great vegan desserts

I tend to get the same thing every time, I crave the Miso ginger bowl. I add the cornmeal tempeh to it and it’s so dang good.

Pros: Delicious nutritional yeast tofu, Amazing cornmeal tempeh , Cool vibes, lots of outside seating
