Arleta Library Bakery and Cafe on SE 72nd at Harold in Portland’s Woodstock neighborhood takes its name from the Arleta School building that once occupied the site — a neighborhood institution repurposed into a bakery and cafe that functions as a neighborhood institution of a different kind. It appeared in Season 6, Episode 5 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Biscuits, Bagels and BLTs,” which aired May 4, 2009. Guy Fieri found a scratch bakery producing house-made bagels, biscuits, pastries, and a full breakfast and lunch menu built around the in-house baking program. In Portland’s competitive breakfast and bakery landscape, Arleta Library has built a loyal following by doing everything from scratch in a warm, community-oriented setting.
