Good paninis to go. I’ve had the Lloyd for breki and the spicy chicken for lunch. Both were fresh and good. Friendly service. Quick to go.

Went here as it is one of the few places to get a coffee before 7:30 a.m. around the convention center. Consequently, the place was very busy with no room to sit, so got my drink to go. Oatmeal was disappointing as it is of the "just add boiling water" variety that you can make in 90 seconds at home.

This cafe is a gem close to the convention center! I had a great breakfast (highly recommend the bagel with lox) and the fruit bowl and cold brew were excellent. Very friendly service as well and a cute atmosphere. Definitely check it out if you're attending an event at the convention center.

The breakfast paninis were really good, I highly recommend the Lloyd sandwich. The shop itself is very nice and the staff are friendly. The coffee was just alright but it was still definitely worth the visit.

I've had breakfast here the past two days. The food was good, the coffee hit the spot, and the service has been awesome!

My recent visit to this restaurant was incredibly disappointing. My colleagues and I stopped by for a quick lunch during a conference at the convention center, hoping for a decent meal. Unfortunately, our experience fell far short of expectations.The service was slow and unfriendly from the start. The person taking our order seemed rushed and uninterested in providing a positive customer experience. The wait for our food was excruciatingly long, and when it finally arrived, the quality was subpar. The egg salad sandwich lacked flavor and was far from appetizing. To make matters worse, the iced chai tea was watery and barely resembled its namesake.As if the poor service and food weren't enough, we were rudely informed that the restaurant was closing while we were still eating. The abruptness and lack of courtesy left a sour taste in our mouths, figuratively and literally.Overall, this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in recent memory. I would strongly advise others to steer clear of this establishment. Dine in at your own risk.I hope this review helps others make informed decisions about where to eat. If the restaurant takes steps to improve, I might consider revisiting in the future, but for now, I cannot recommend it.

Great panini and homemade tomato soup! They acknowledged every single person that walked in and kept the place clean during Friday lunch rush!

Really good food, only reason it's a 4 star is because eggs aren't seasoned that well, but great quality bread and good fluffy eggs. Bacon was also kinda light but I still enjoyed it. Definitely recommend the Lloyd breakfast panini

I’m new to Portland & this is the third coffee shop I’ve tried looking for a really good cup of coffee, & this was definitely it?I also tried a panini sandwich since it was close to lunch time, and again, it was so good!! $13 for a large sandwich with a salad & chips made the price worth definitely going back!Staff was also very friendly✌?
