Description[edit]
Tin Shed Garden Cafe is a dog-friendly restaurant on Alberta Street in northeast Portland's King neighborhood.[3][4] The café has an outdoor dining area, a stone fireplace and chimney, and a menu for dogs.[5][6]
Tin Shed hosts Doggie Love Night on Tuesdays, as of 2018.[7][8] The promotion allows patrons to purchase a "people-priced" item for a free dog dinner.[9] The restaurant provides cookies and water to dogs at no cost.[10]
Menu[edit]
Tin Shed serves salmon and veggie burgers, as well as soups and sandwiches.[11] The regular menu has a dish called The Cure, which has buttermilk biscuits and gravy with apple-wood smoked bacon or mushroom-rosemary varieties.[9] The restaurant also served breakfast burritos, shredded-potato cakes, and egg and tofu scrambles.[12] Among the dog-themed scrambles are the Fetch with eggs and bacon, and the Stay, which has greens, mushrooms, and roasted sweet potatoes.[13] The dog menu has free range meat options.[12]
History[edit]
Christie Griffin opened Tin Shed in 2002.[14][15] She still owns the business as of 2020.[16]
Guy Fieri visited Tin Shed for an episode of the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.[17][18][19] In 2020, the restaurant was featured in a PBS documentary called Breakfast Special.[20]
In 2010, Tin Shed was one of fourteen businesses seeking an exemption to a city ban on the use of public sidewalks for storing trash.[21] In 2020, Tin Shed was forced to close temporarily during the COVID-19 pandemic, but reopened with patio service by early September.[3] The restaurant uses compostable packaging and utensils, as of 2020.[16]
Reception[edit]
In 2009, The Oregonian described Tin Shed as "more of a throwback to a time when offbeat, multi-ethnic flavors began to creep into our breakfast foods" and said, "In short, this is a restaurant with a personality, one that's hard to dislike."[22] The newspaper's Molly Harbarger and Michael Russell included Tin Shed in a 2019 guide of Portland's 40 best brunches.[23] In 2020, Willamette Week readers ranked the café second place in the "Best Brunch Spot" category of the annual Best of Portland readers' poll.[24]
Carrie Uffindell included the café in Eater Portland's 2019 list of "primo kid-friendly" Portland restaurants,[25] and Brooke Jackson-Glidden and Michelle DeVona recommended the "stack" with scrambled eggs and grits or potato cakes and mushroom gravy in their 2020 guide to restaurants on Alberta Street.[26] Zoe Baillargeon and Janey Wong included Tin Shed in Eater Portland's 2023 overview of "real-deal" breakfasts in the city, calling Tin Shed a "breakfast hangout".[27]
Thrillist commented on how friendly Tin Shed was with dogs, additionally stating that it was an "exceptional brunch", offering some of the "best burgers" in Portland.[9] The Food Network has included the artichoke grilled cheese sandwich in a list of the top 16 vegetarian "favorites".[28] In 2023, Yelp ranked Tin Shed number one in a list of the "Top 100 Dog-Friendly Places to Eat Across the U.S."[29]
