Cute little vegan coffee shop

They had several “specialty” lattes available and a small selection of vegan pastries. They also had breakfast sandwiches. I got the Popcorn Latte: buttery salty theatre which was DELISH, and my wife got the Oregon and Chill with matcha and Marionberry cold cream. Would highly recommend stopping by for one of their unique specialty lattes.

Best mocha of my life

As the title says! I was worried it would be crowded with minimal seating based on previous reviews, but there was still room inside and out around 10 on a Saturday. I got an iced mocha with oat milk (no further modifications) and it was delicious. I also appreciated the fact they use real dishware instead of just disposable plastic

Awesome coffee shop

Awesome drinks and nothing bad to say except I wish they had a bigger, more comfortable location.

Cozy spot

Super tasty vegan pastries and I really liked the breakfast sandwich! I asked the barista what they recommended and got the caramel popcorn latte. It was so yummy! The staff were very kind too😄will definitely be back next time we visit Portland!

Cute little shop with perfect coffee

This coffee shop is awesome. The staff really know their craft. As a former barista, I'm a bit of a coffee snob, and this place gets it perfect.

Pros: Knowledgeable baristas, Friendly , Cute!

Cute Little Spot!

I was walking to the office and just happened to stumble on this spot by chance when I saw the plant-based sign on the front. So happy I did!

Staff was friendly, food was good, drink was excellent. Really cute spot.

I’m going to sound like the biggest complainer, but just a couple nitpicks:
- it felt crammed
- I’m one of ‘those people’ who prefers eating most of my food with a fork/knife. You’ll see in my photos how the plates they use are pretty incompatible with this workflow. So I was spilling food everywhere trying to eat it and eventually gave up and ate with my hands. I know this isn’t a problem for most people, but it was a bit frustrating on my end because I didn’t want to make a mess.

I don’t want to let the minor nitpicks distract from the positives:
- good food
- amazing pastries
- excellent drinks

(And yes, that’s the order of what I think is good to best) I still think about the tea I had there.

Pros: Drinks, Pastries, Environment

Good coffee and specialty drinks

I got my usual Americano here and it was good but pretty light. I would recommend an 8oz for Americanos here for a good espresso-water ratio. My partner got a “Carmel popcorn” iced latte and said it reminded him of a salt Carmel latte. We’ll probably visit again the next time we’re in Portland.

Pros: Everything is vegan

Unique and fun

Maryberry Espresso Tonic had a lot going on, but surprisingly delightful with a beautiful presentation. The caramel corn latte was yummy, though sweet. Pastries from local bakeries are delicious.

Great spot!

This is a super cool spot inside the shaft of an old freight elevator. It feels like a slice of old Portland. The staff is very kind and all of the food is vegan. For pastries they have a mix of Shoofly and another bakery. One of the best Americanos I’ve had in a long time.

Exquisite drinks

The espress-orange tonic is the most interesting and delicious coffee drink I’ve had in a long time. Super fresh scones and quick breads from Shoofly sealed the deal. I’m still sitting here and already excited to come back.

Exquisite Visit

I ordered a chai tea and a cinnamon sugar Delicious Donut. I love pastries, but I wish they offered more food options.

Pros: all vegan, customer service, ambience

Cons: only food is pastries

Thank you so much for visiting!

We are still in start-up/soft opening mode, only being open for a few weeks, so a lot of learning and experimenting with what’s possible in our small space… we do have more food options on the way though (stay tuned for a fun take on a breakfast sandwich), so we hope to see you again soon!
