Big shoutout to the staff—they were friendly, helpful, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I will be coming back to! ”
“ LB Kitchen in Portland offers a refreshing twist on morning fare. I indulged in a matcha milkshake, which was delightful, and golden pancakes that were perfectly prepared. The breakfast salad was an unexpected joy—my first encounter with such a dish, and it was very good indeed. The order-and-wait system, where you receive a number and find a table, makes for a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere as your chosen delights are brought directly to you. LB Kitchen proves to be a charming spot for innovative and satisfying breakfast options. ”
“ I literally ordered 2 stacks of the blueberry gluten free pancakes and neither survived. And these were not skimpy stacks. They were the perfect treat to have on my birthday. Delicious coffee and so many other yummy pastries and gluten free options! I would go here every morning if I lived in Maine! Absolutely incredible! ”
“ This place was so good that I went twice on my 4 day trip to Portland. I had the LB bowl with salmon and the tomato and friends toast. Both blew my mind. Highly highly recommend ”
“ If pink coffee cup lids are an option, why in the world have we been drinking from white/black/brown lids all these years? Just one example of the whimsy contained within LB Kitchen. I came here for coffee. I left with an LB Kitchen t-shirt, a boyfriend shake for my son, a variety of unique snacks for our road trip, and a big jolt of joy to start my day. Genuine, kind service. incredible cup of coffee. And merch that’s worth talking about. Everything in this space is unique, thoughtfully selected, works on its own and somehow still works with everything else there. Come for the foodbev, but take time to look at everything else. ”
“ Delicious breakfast sandwich, a little pricier than what you might expect for a corner shop. Really appreciated the delicious homemade gluten-free bread ”
“ I visited again last week for the second time. If I lived closer I would eat here more often. The staff and service are fantastic and the keto salad is really the best. This time I added fermented options. It really gave the green salad a nice tangy taste. Delicious. The worst part about this place is parking. Because they get so busy, we had a hard time parking on a Tuesday at lunch time. So, we just ordered to go and ate elsewhere. Not a problem for us, just something to consider. ”
“ Absolutely love LB kitchen. It has been one of my favorite restaurants since I moved to Portland. They accommodate my dietary restrictions. I know I can have a good meal here without feeling sick afterward. If you are gluten-free or vegan, this is the spot! Healthy food is so good at LB! ”
