Legendary!

First of all, the Breakfast Sammie was the best vegan breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had, hands down, and I’ve eaten many. It’s huge and everything about it is perfect: the scrambled tofu is super flavorful & saucy, the roll was fresh, the tempeh bacon is amazing & they do not skimp. There were slices of tempeh that covered the whole thing. So nice we ordered it twice on our short trip to Portland.
We also had multiple pastries. Sweetpea has vegan danishes, which are pretty rare to find, as well as scones, croissants and muffins. Everything we had was fantastic. Believe the hype!

Just wow

This place was incredible! I am not a breakfast person and this was still one of the best places I’ve ever tried. I tried the Breakfast Sammie, Turtle Power sandwich, Caesar salad, Raspberry Croissant, Cinnamon Roll and the Chai latte. The Croissant was a bit much for me, but my partner liked it. The chai tasted a little like water, but was still okay. Otherwise, everything was incredible. The vibe is cute and queer friendly. 🌈

Pros: Great food, Queer friendly

Cons: They didn’t have the bread we paid for, The staff was impatient

Great pastries and coffee

We had a matcha macadamia ring, a croissant stuffed with scallion bacon cream cheese, and soy lattes. The matcha ring was the highlight, and the lattes were very good. The croissant was good too, although it was more of the soft kind rather than crispy/flaky (maybe because it had cream cheese inside). The shop inside was cute, and they allowed our dog inside in his stroller.

Pros: Great pastries, Great lattes, Cute interior

Loved my BLT

Great place for breakfast, lunch or coffee and a pastry. BLT was amazing and the peach & raspberry strudel was exceptionally flaky!

Pros: Friendly service

Good food, friendly service

Not quite as many pastry options as I'd hoped for from the name, but still a dozen or so, along with coffee and some savory dishes. I had an ube cheesecake muffin that was tasty but very dense - definitely needed the whipped cream on top to lighten it.

The dining area is basic, somewhat industrial, and a bit on the loud side. Very friendly service, though, and the food and coffee were good.

Pros: Friendly staff, Decent number of options

Cons: Somewhat industrial decor

Good but maybe overrated

Came here after hearing many raving reviews about the tofu scramble.
It was good but tbh I didn’t think it was that good. Perhaps I have a different idea of what makes a good tofu scramble- this one tasted a bit more like a dry scrambled omelette with a kind of smokey and gritty flavour, it was interesting but I prefer ones that are silkier.

Also had the pastrami/sauerkraut toastie which was really good.
Baked treats in the cabinet looked amazing too, wish I tried some!

Pros: All vegan , Gf options

Cons: Served salad dressing in little disposable cups

Everything is good!

Everything I have tried is good, it is a bakery that has some of the most delicious baked goods around. I particularly love the pizza croissant and tofu scramble croissant. I would name everything but you get the point by now. I recommend everyone to go if you have not yet, you wont regret it.

Pros: Lots of options, Pizza croissant , Serves food

Sweetpea to the Rescue

Very friendly staff with an excellent selection and taste. I had a special cake ordered at another local vegan bakery for my wife's birthday and they called me the day before I was due to pick it up and canceled the order. They gave me no options so really left me in a bad spot. I looked around and found Sweetpea, gave them a call, bare in mind this is Friday and I was supposed to pick up the original on Saturday. I gave Alan the story and he felt bad for my situation and went to check with the baker. He came back and despite normally requiring 3 day notice worked with me to get the perfect cake sorted out. It was a HIT!! Thank you so much for helping save our birthday festivities. I also grabbed a few pastries to try and they were also a hit !

A staple

Always a staple when visiting Portland for morning goodies and breakfast. Only place I’ve ever found an amazing and moist vegan cream cheese danish.
Also allows dogs inside and is next to a dog park, so that’s pretty damnnnn awesome.

So many choices!

The menu is so extensive!!! We had drinks and tried their croissant and Reuben. Both delicious. Reuben was very filling and flavourful. Even came with a side salad!

Croissants for the soul

For some reason the only thing I missed after going vegan was croissants. Well, Sweetpea has solved that problem for me. I've also enjoyed their breakfast sandwich and all the various sweets/pastries. I only wish I could get over there more often.

Pros: Croissants and pastries, Friendly staff

Toooooo Salty

I think I might not be into American food? The flavours were really good, but it super salty. Would try again though. Breakfast sammy.

Terrible service

We said we couldn’t wear a mask so the guy told us to leave (July 2022 no mandate in place). When the manager came out the guy denied having ever said that. Give your business to those who will be honest and appreciate it.

More of THIS! 😍

Incredible food! I had the Breakfast Sammi and the Choco-Walnut Donut. Wish I wasn’t already full, I would’ve had more of it 😁 The guy who took my order was so kind and helpful in recommending the best food options at this place.

Good food, poor service and coffee

The food quality and taste was really good but was let down by the service, food presentation and coffee. We dined in but they still served the food and coffee in takeaway boxes, such a waste of packaging.

Overhyped

Decided to stop by Sweetpea Baking Company on the way home from camping on the Oregon coast. I chose this place because it was one of the most reviewed restaurants in Portland on HappyCow. I ordered the breakfast Sammie and my wife ordered the tofu scramble. The breakfast Sammie had some tempeh bacon, cheese, veggies, and a loaf of scrambled tofu that all fell out upon picking it up. It tasted good but awfully messy.

We ate there but we’re given to-go containers which is quite wasteful in my opinion. This place also enforces mask wearing in a county where it’s not forced, FYI.
