Arleta Library Bakery & Cafe opened in 2005. The business was co-owned by Sarah and Nick Iannarone until December 2018, ahead of their 2019 divorce. Guy Fieri visited the restaurant for an episode of the television program Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

After operating for approximately 15 years, Arleta closed in March 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The cafe's owners said the space was too small to operate with social distancing. In May 2020, Rosie Siefert of The Daily Meal wrote: "The hole-in-the-wallШаблон:Nbsp... cafe has been around for 15 years but couldn't withstand the financial strain the coronavirus pandemic placed on the establishment. Although there can't be any hugs, shoutouts or last calls, according to Arleta's Facebook page, there is a GoFundMe for patrons to give staff one last tip."

Reception

Andy Kryza included Arleta Library Bakery & Cafe in Thrillist's 2013 overview of "where to take any type of mom on her special day". Arleta was a runner-up in the Best Brunch category of Willamette WeekШаблон:'s annual Best of Portland readers poll in 2010. Jay Horton recommended Arleta in the newspaper's 2016 overview of the Mt. Scott-Arleta and Woodstock neighborhoods, and wrote:

The Tuscan

While never much of a library, the Arleta Cafe earned a certain measure of cultural permanence when Diners, Drive-Ins and DivesШаблон:'s Guy Fieri stopped by to marvel at its trademark sweet potato biscuits with rosemary-sausage gravy. Following the Food Network imprimatur and owner Sarah Iannarone's ill-starred mayoral candidacy, a steady string of curious interlopers have joined die-hard regulars amid the morning crush.

In 2014 and 2016, the restaurant was a finalist in The OregonianШаблон:'s People's Choice competition for Portland's best brunch. Michael Russell included the business in the newspaper's 2019 list of "Portland's 40 best brunches". Followings the restaurant's closure, Karen Brooks of Portland Monthly called Arleta a "beloved neighborhood anchor".
