Oregon Hazelnut Latte is simply the best --- Definitely on the pricey side. Great location and a super comfy spot!

Drinks menu was surprisingly limited, but we still found something we liked. A very dog-friendly staff, if they're well-behaved. A nice atmosphere for getting some work done, and free wi-fi. Wouldn't recommend for dining in with kids.Kid-friendliness: Not really any kid-friendly drinks (looking at you, hot chocolate). Might be fine to get something to go, but probably not somewhere you'd want to hang out.

After an insanely difficult traffic morning, I decided to not return home to attend my class online. I'm not using Starbucks because I'm against genocide, but wasn't sure where in NW Portland I could spend three hours while keeping caffeinated.Thank goodness I found this gem via google maps and reviews. The servers saw my earbuds and were so kind when I gestured - they took my order via whisper and, to my surprise, brought to my table my breakfast order. I spent about three hours eating, drinking coffee and tea, and during class breaks, shared with the servers my favorite animation shows (AdventureTime, Fionna and Cake, Star Trek: Lower Decks, Bob's Burgers) and they were so cute to be excited that someone came in who loves AdventureTime.I ordered brewed coffee - excellent taste and robust. Vegan burrito was substantial and I couldn't finish it. Chamomile/Lavender tea delicious. Being left alone to take my class - Priceless.In short, I'm so happy I found this little treasure and will be back, classes or just for good coffee and tea. Thank you for being so welcoming!

Most delicious cocoa, rude staff. No greeting when we came in and then one was annoyed I was standing in the wrong place to order even though there was no one in line for orders. When we left told both 20 something young women “Thank you, have a wonderful evening” and they literally looked disgusted. Why is it so hard for people to be pleasant?

Simply on the basis of espresso quality, I give this 4 stars. Great, not excellent. I had a single origin Ethiopian from Dune roasters. I'm a big proponent of speciality coffee and while i like many local Oregon roasters, I really appreciate when cafes branch out and purchase specialty light roasted coffee that I would not normally seek out on my own.The 5th star is for the service, and cleanliness. Lovely employees, create an environment for a cozy and welcoming little spot. I would absolutely recommend this to others and come back when I'm back in this part of town.Wheelchair accessibility: Ada compliant ramp and thresholds

I may be the naysayer, but I wasn’t impressed with my latte. The atmosphere wasn’t much and the staff was polite, but not particularly friendlier outgoing. I can find a better place to go next time.

Wish they would prop the door open on sunny days. The front door is constantly loudly slamming over and over again. The sitting area is right there. Just prop the door open guys. We don't need the door slamming in our face every 15-20 seconds. This would be a great spot otherwise but the atmosphere is brutally annoying.

$6 for a tiny little 8oz cheap Dixie cup of foo foo coffee lol, I was so disappointed when it was handed to me.. I don't get how this place is so highly rated. Won't be coming back I think I'll stick to Starbucks.

Good iced coffee for my nearby real estate discussion. I tend to be selective- I might try something else next time.

The coffee was good but the service was rude. The workers seemed annoyed and were short with me when I asked a question.

Barista's service has only gotten better throughout the years and their coffee is great as well.

This spot is super easy to spot. It's got a few outdoor/indoor seating options in addition to being near some neat stores. The staff is super friendly and helpful. If you've got any questions, they'll have the answer for you! This shop was clean and well kept. I'll have to try out a food item the next time I stop by as I only grabbed a hazelnut latte which was quite flavorful. Maybe too good as I didn't even noticed the double shot of espresso within. Thanks for a good first impression!

Was very impressed with their coffee. Great flavor espresso, and there was plenty of places you could sit. They also sell really nice beans.
