The Menu Items At This Oregon Restaurant Are Named Around The Film The Princess Bride, And The Food Is As Magical As A Fairy Tale

Don't you just love the 1987 film The Princess Bride? It's a true classic and it never gets old. This well-known, comedic love story and fairy tale is based on a book of the same name by William Goldman, but it's the movie that most people remember best. Even though this film is over 30 years old, it's still widely celebrated and enjoyed by people of all ages! If you're a fan, then you'll love this themed restaurant in Portland, Oregon, where many of the dishes are named after its characters. Read on to learn more about it.

The Princess Bride is a great movie. Anyone who has seen it even once will remember it forever because it's so weird, different, hilarious, unique, and just plain awesome.

The owners of Portland's Guilder Cafe love it, too! That's why they created an entire restaurant based on the movie. There are actually two locations. The "East" location was first and is located at 2393 NE Fremont.

This airy, Scandinavian-style cafe is open and welcoming. It is the perfect place to have a meal, drink some coffee, chat with a friend, or get some work done.

Guilder Cafe's second location — 'West" — is inside Powell's Books at 1035 West Burnside. It opened in March 2022.

Both locations have decor that is themed around The Princess Bride.
