The Slide Inn closes. They announced the closure on their website; their final day of service will be Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 10. That day they will serve just brunch, no dinner.
They first opened The Slide Inn in 2012. From the owner: “It’s been my passion and love when I started cooking professionally at age 15 when I did my apprenticeship whilst living in Germany. Sadly, I am now retiring what I have been doing for 51 years. It has brought me so much pleasure and joy serving the community and enabling my guests with dietary restrictions to feel safe and me knowing how to handle each scenario. Thank you to all my loyal customers, thank you for your patience and understanding.” 2348 SE Ankeny Street, Portland
