Description

edit

Cadillac Cafe is a restaurant along Northeast Broadway in Portland's Irvington neighborhood.[1] A fully functional pink 1961 Cadillac and other vintage car memorabilia are displayed inside.[2][3][4] In 2008, Willamette Week said, "With its many tropical plants and a 1962 pink convertible on display, the Cadillac feels like a road trip to Miami, circa 1965."[5]

History

edit

Ownership of the restaurant changed to James Hall and Josh Johnston in 2015.[6] In 2020, Cadillac was forced to close temporarily during the COVID-19 pandemic, but had reopened with expanded outdoor seating by July.[7][8]

Reception

edit

Morgan Troper of the Portland Mercury called Cadillac an "institution" of the city's Lloyd District.[9]
