The best iced latte I have EVER had! I don’t say that lightly. I have never reviewed a coffee shop as having the best latte ever before, and I don’t intend to ever again because I am so confident that the latte these kind people make can’t be beat. IT IS LITERAL HEAVEN ON EARTH. They also use high quality milk which really shines thru in their final product. I’ve been here many times and their consistency at producing such a wonderful drink is impressive. I’ve gotten iced lattes at probably thousands of coffee shops in my life in many different countries and I can say with certainty that Black Ink Coffee makes an iced latte that is yet to be beat. AMAZING

The overwhelming issue here is that one feels like they are legit in Portland--like in the worst possible way. It just gives off a very potent rainbow, lefty aroma. If that's what you're into, then you'll probably enjoy it. To be fair, the food and beverage is great.

Adorable gift shop and bookstore! I come here a lot when I need a journal or a small gift for a friend. Coffee is ok but overpriced. I don't support places that charge a dollar extra for alternative milk. A mediocre latte should not cost $8.

Place is now absurdly overpriced, I’m sorry but $4.75 for a 16oz drip coffee is just a bit too much,
I used to like this place before they rebranded to White Rabbit Book Cafe, now you walk in and the drink counter is in the back? Plus they don’t have any food options here anymore which is unfortunate because they used to have a great selection of local bakery’s.

This spot is top-notch! They use excellent coffee roasters for their beans - Proud Mary and Deadstock- and then brew them to perfection. The staff is always friendly and make you feel welcome. The space itself is cozy and comfy to hang out and enjoy your beverage. You can also browse the bookstore and find other cute little treats and trinkets in the shop!

Delicious beverage (I got golden oat milk) in a great book/gift shop. Could spend some time there, great environment!

Great coffee! Great books! Food is now just snacks, good snacks but not as extensive as it used to be. Come relax, enjoy good coffee and amazing books!
Really wanted to love this small local cafe, but it's honestly way overpriced for what you get. Our soy-milk mocha didn't have any chocolate flavor, so basically tasted like a latte, and the chai latte while good, was missing something to make it great and worth returning for. Would not return for the cafe part of the store. The staff were very nice and willing to answer any questions. I like that the shop is filled with stuff from small and local artists. However, some of the branded/officially licensed merchandise near the back of the store was pretty overpriced too.

Used to be amazing coffee shop, but changed to focus on book store and coffee bar layout doesn’t make sense. And doesn’t open until 9 am ☹️

The staff were so kind! I'm not a coffee drinker. I usually drink white coffee and they made me an iced mocha that was great!

Ok coffee, unprofessional service and a uncomfortable atmosphere. It’s ok though, I found a better place couple blocks down. It’s Called “Coffee Rush” Much better place and they love pets
