Beloved Portland Brunch Spot HunnyMilk Serving Its Last Stacks After 11 Years

One of Portland's most playful brunch rituals is about to become a memory. HunnyMilk, the "deliciously whimsical" brunch spot known for its colorful pastries and cheeky prix-fixe spreads, will close its kitchen at the end of June after an 11-year run. The pop-up-turned-brick-and-mortar, long a weekend magnet for inventive comfort food and serious lines, plans to serve brunch through June 28, 2026, giving regulars a short runway for farewell visits.

As reported by The Oregonian/OregonLive, HunnyMilk announced on Instagram that it "will close its kitchen at the end of the month" and confirmed that the final brunch service is set for June 28, 2026. The post urged diners to swing by during the remaining weekend services while the team winds down kitchen operations.

From Pop-Up To Burnside Mainstay

HunnyMilk started life as a weekend pop-up inside La Buca before graduating to its own West Burnside address in 2018. Eater PDX chronicled that move from borrowed space to standalone brunch destination, and Willamette Week later spotlighted the fixed-price concept and creative plates that helped build HunnyMilk's devoted following.

Menu Favorites And Last Orders

The one-drink, one-savory, one-sweet set-price combo has been HunnyMilk's signature, turning brunch into a full-on event rather than a quick bite. The Oregonian/OregonLive noted earlier praise for standouts like the semi-spicy chorizo gravy over two biscuits and a custard-filled poppy-seed crepe, dishes that helped cement the restaurant's long-running appeal. Expect those lines to return as regulars and curious latecomers crowd in over the remaining weekends.

How To Say Goodbye

Weekend brunch service will continue at La Buca, 40 N.E. 28th Ave, on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. through June 28. The HunnyMilk website lists current weekend hours and the set-price menu, and includes contact information for questions or gift card details.

The closing announcement did not include any long-term plans for either the Burnside space or the HunnyMilk brand. For now, Portlanders have only a few more weekends to visit a brunch spot many have treated as a non-negotiable part of their weekend routine.
