Hale's Restaurant & Lounge

"Large, option filled menu. From Mexican food to breakfast. Service was a little slow. But was a busy lunch hour. Food got to us fast and was delicious. Spartan sauce is a 4 cheese blend. Was thick and creamy. Will be coming again"

"Best damn breakfast in Washington County if not all of Oregon.. When we used to live in Hillsburrito we would make it to Hale's at least once every 2 to 3 weeks. Best omelets and chicken fried steaks.. and you Best be coming with a huge appetite."

"We received an e-gift card from a non-local relative for Christmas to Hale's. We are new to the area and enjoy going out to eat so it was a thoughtful gift. We were looking forward to trying them out. The Perkins-like atmosphere ended up being the best thing about this restaurant. Our waitress gave unenthusiastic, middling service. My fiances seafood pasta was flavorless, although he reported the scallops were cooked well. The burger I had was also cooked well, but also tasteless and very dry (it came with no ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, but did come with a flavorless cheese sauce served on the side). When we tried to pay with our e-gift card, our waitress disappeared for a while before reporting back that the machine that runs the gift cards was down and asking if we'd mind paying another way. We understand that things happen sometimes and paid for our meal. We decided that the food was tasteless enough that we wouldn't be coming back for a meal but maybe for drinks and dessert. A few weeks later, we returned to do exactly that. We asked before being seated if the gift card machine was working. The hostess took our e-gift card, couldn't get the machine to work, and disappeared in the back to talk to someone. When she returned, she told us that the e-gift card we'd received was only usable for online ordering for pickup or delivery, despite that not being noted anywhere on it. She promised a manager would call us, but never asked for our contact information to do so. A few weeks later, we decided to order food just to sever ties with this restaurant and have it done with. We ordered a breakfast containing eggs, sausage links, and pancakes, as well as an order of a crusted French toast and a dessert. I paid using the gift card, paying for the overage and leaving a tip with my debit card. After placing the order, we were given a pick up time 90 minutes later. Because that time seemed a little bit lengthy given the degree of business in our previous visits and the simplicity of our order, we headed over in 60. When we arrived, the hostess cheerlessly told me there was a balance remaining. When I explained that I had paid for the overage and left a tip using my debit card she rolled her eyes and disappeared into the back. When she returned, she said "Here's your order" and handed me the bag of food that had been sitting at the hostess station when we arrived. No explanation as to why she thought I still owed them money or an apology for making a mistake. When we arrived home with our food, it had obviously been sitting out for a while, as none of it was even warm. The sausage patties were flavorless. The eggs were serviceable once they were reheated. The pancakes, French toast, and dessert were all pretty good, but after 3 terrible experiences trying to use an e-gift card, there is nothing on this earth short of a zombie apocalypse that would entice me back to this wretched restaurant with flavorless food and even worse service."

"Love this restaurant!! I'd never been here before and my son took me to breakfast. Amazing place! Service was fast and friendly!! Food came quick with very generous portions besides being delicious! The decor is beautiful and I will definitely go here again!! Highly recommend!!"

"Cool vintage vibe diner style restaurant, with fast, friendly service. Food varies with choices, and my wife wasn't crazy about the crab Louie salad, but I loved the fish burger. The fish burger and fish and chips both use haddock, which is unusual, but excellent. Definitely worth a visit. Breakfast choices look especially appealing."
