We’re blushing into our breakfast potatoes. 🥹

Two plates. One breakfast identity crisis.

On one side: pancakes with whipped cream and sprinkles.

On the other: smoked salmon benedict with house-made hollandaise and crispy potatoes.

Sweet, savory, or a little booth diplomacy with one of each. We have range. We also have forks.

Team Sweet, Team Savory, or Team “we’re sharing”? We won’t tell you what to choose, but we will be reading the comments. 👀

The Diner Vancouver is owned and operated by Meals on Wheels People, which means a meal here is connected to something bigger than the plate in front of you.

Your order helps support work that brings meals, connection, and care to older neighbors in our community.

That’s what we mean by serving more than just a meal.

Heads up, friends!

Starting tomorrow, April 22, we’ll be moving the clock just a bit, so be sure to check our updated hours before you stop in.

Same days, new times. Everything else? Just as you like it. We’re still serving up tasty classics and pouring fresh Relevant Coffee, just on a slightly different schedule.

All good things must come to an end. 🥺

It's the last day of Portland Mercury's Sandwich Week, which means it's also your last chance to grab the Cubano Stacker. Savory with a little heat, it's a sandwich you won't soon forget.

Come try yours before we wrap up!

All this talk of sandwiches, but maybe that's not your thing. Sometimes a hearty, classic breakfast is just the move.

Our Corned Beef Hash could be just what you're looking for. Diced corned beef, red bell peppers, white and green onions, mushrooms, and breakfast potatoes, all topped with two farm-fresh poached eggs. And yes, we serve it all day. 💚

Stop by, we'll have a table ready.
Wed–Sun, 8 AM–3 PM.

You've made it to the weekend. You deserve a sandwich.

Our Cubano Stacker is tangy, a little spicy, and worth every bite. $10 with sides, and we've got gluten-free bread if you need it. Portland Mercury's sandwich week runs through Sunday, so be sure to stop by and give it a try!

Oh, and did we mention? Every visit supports Meals on Wheels People. 💚

Good food brings people together. That's not a new idea — but at The Diner, it means something a little different.

We're operated by Meals on Wheels People, and part of our mission is helping older adults in our community feel nourished, connected, and welcome.

There's a lot more to us than what's on the menu. Learn more at thediner.org.

Yes, we're in Vancouver. Yes, we're worth the drive.

Portland Mercury's Sandwich Week is here, and we're bringing something special to the table: the Cubano Stacker. Turkey, ham, Swiss, mustard slaw, pickles, pickled carrots, and semi-spicy Cuban mayo layered together on grilled rustic white bread and served with fries, coleslaw, or side salad for just $10.

Bonus: The Diner is operated by Meals on Wheels People. When you dine with us, you help us bring meals, connection, and independence to older adults across Clark, Multnomah, and Washington counties.

Cross the bridge and make your lunch count.
Today through Sunday, 8 AM 'til 3 PM.

Have you heard? 🥪👀

Come try your new favorite sandwich March 4–8 from 8 AM 'til 3 PM.
