Authentic Portland Vibe & Delicious Food
My first time here was a great experience and it didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed a latte, a hummus vegan wrap, and a side salad. The atmosphere is chill, with people working on laptops and couples chatting over coffee.
My oat milk latte was delish, and the staff member working alone during a busy period was a hero. The place has a distinctive Portland vibe – authentic and chill, with a simplistic, rustic feel. It’s also reasonable for what you get; we split a sandwich ($12), side salad ($3), and a large latte ($7) and were full and happy.
The vegetarian options are highly recommended.

Good for Studying, Okay Coffee
This is a perfect place to study and work. The vegetarian bagel was really good, but the latte could have been better. The staff were friendly.

Consistently Great Food and Service!
I absolutely love this place and have been a loyal customer since they opened. They were one of the first establishments to permanently feature lavender on their menu, which is why I visit at least a couple of times a month. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly.
I couldn't recommend it enough.

Excellent Coffee, Bagels, and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was excellent. I enjoyed the excellent coffee and a fresh bagel that came with a generous amount of cream cheese. The staff member behind the counter was particularly kind and responsive.
Overall, the good vibes made for a pleasant visit.

Great Coffee and Acai Bowls!
My experience at this restaurant was very positive. I ordered an iced coffee and an acai bowl. The coffee was very nice, and the acai bowl was great.
I highly recommend adding peanut butter to the acai bowl! It was a very nice stop.

Great Coffee, Productive Vibes
This is a really great coffee shop. It's not flashy or pretentious, offering just good coffee and authentic vibes. I don't normally choose to work in a coffee shop, but I found myself more productive here than in the office, which is quite a feat!

Chill Vibe, Perfect Latte!
My experience at this restaurant was very chill, with no loud music. The hot toffee latte was perfect for the gloomy weather! They offer street parking.
I'm definitely coming back again!

Average Food, Dirty Place, Okay Service
My experience at this restaurant was very average. The food was mediocre, and the coffee was unfortunately sour. The place itself looked quite dirty, with numerous flies and an unpleasant smell.
While the service was fine, it didn't compensate for the other issues.
