I love visiting  this bakery/cafe on Division Street.  It has a vibe and great food—especially the pies—that make every trip a pleasure.

Here’s a recent article from the Portland Monthly Word of Mouth

“Your guests can eat oatmeal at home. Lauretta Jean’s serves a proper breakfast meal: oven-fresh biscuits, each containing euphoric amounts of butter, served every way imaginable-French toast to vegetarian Benedict, or just cradling fresh pork sausage, an egg and maple butter. Slices of breakfast pie (pictured) are drawn from a serious collection including fresh pumpkin and a hazel-nut crowned honey pie, also available to go.”

For serious breakfast eaters, this is the place to go! Of course, a slice of pie is a good thing anytime!
