Great coffee, but the trendy white surfaces and uniform chairs felt a little sterile and franchised as if it could exist anywhere. Not a place I would get work done.
Maximum BurgerJune 11, 2019Pains me to say $6 cold brew is good but it’s good. Nice light airy interior with plenty of space for arch-hipsters to write screenplays on their MacBooks and Boomers to discuss Trump over cappuccino- DunjaAugust 18, 2018Good coffee and a nice quiet place to work from. Only downside is: not dog friendly 😭
Stephen WeberMay 6, 2023There are very few coffee shops in Portland that are worth the trip to them. This is one of them. Parking in the neighborhood is extremely limited; consider going by transit or bike/scooter.- Ben MackeyJune 25, 2023Turkish eggs or any of the toasts. The espresso is first class - worth the trip. The Ube Latte is a bit on the sweet side, but still an interesting drink to try.
Spacious popular neighborhood cafe that is almost always busy. 3rd wave coffee pour overs & espresso shots are decent options. Plenty of tea from True Tea like Taiwan oolong teas are offered here.
Joshua AbbottNovember 20, 2015First time here and it's amazing. Also came to support our buddy Zvi with his new pop up deli. Conveniently named Zvi's Pop Up Deli! Check it out!
Interesting coffee roasts and amazing variations of poached eggs on toast
Melissa LimSeptember 11, 2015Great coffee, open-faced sandwiches, pastries and a very lovely space to hang out.
Neel HajareFebruary 19, 2021Good cortado—they have online ordering/payment and will bring it outside if you call and ask
Great coffee & toasts. Decent prices considering its portland.
Drew TysonNovember 4, 2016Cuter than it is good, still not a bad place to get some work done—if you can handle Bon Iver.
Leslie PostonSeptember 9, 2016This place had good food, friendly staff, and good wifi; however, it joins a long, long list of terrible coffee in Portland. Why does all the coffee here taste like bitter moss? So weird.
