Atmosphere, ambiance was fine, although a little loud for my taste. We were able to hold a conversation without too much trouble. Got quieter after the breakfast crowd thinned out. Very good oatmilk cappuccino, according to my coffee partner, and very good mocha. "Drip" coffee seemed to be a slighly over diluted Americana. Another shot would have been good. It was busy, but even considering that the service was slower than expected. There didn't seem to be a sense of urgency with the staff. Maybe that's just their vibe? Marionberry pastry was very good. The overall experience was satisfactory and I will go again.

I used to frequent this spot when I lived in SW. the food is good, it’s a cute atmosphere and it was a great place to meet up with friends for coffee. This morning I met a friend there and we were enjoying our coffee and chatting. It was a weekend afternoon and seemed busy but there were always a few tables open. Just a few minuted after I had finished my coffee a staff member approached us and asked us to leave so they could have the table. There was no line at the counter, and 3 other open tables when he asked us this. He pointed to a completely full “community table” and told us we could sit there if we wanted to stay. I was very disappointed- I have never been asked to leave a coffee shop before, we had not been there for an excessive amount of time, it was not a friendly request and there seemed to be no upcoming demand for the table. It also was 1:30 in the afternoon- so the morning and lunch rush had concluded. There also were multiple people who had been there longer than us that were not asked to give up there table. I was excited to visit this establishment but I don’t think I’ll be going back again. There should be signs up if there is a time limit on tables during the weekend.

One of my favorite places to work for a few hours. Good tea, and lots of space to sit both inside and outside. Staff are friendly and prices are average for Portland.

Amazing space with great coffee and homemade syrups!!
I lived in the he neighborhood from 2020-2023. I visited today and experienced the cafe under the new owners and remodel. The apple walnut coffee cake was perhaps the best I have ever had. Moist..just the right amount of nuttiness....the crumble finger licking good. It is worth the 23 mile trip from across the river in Vancouver to SW PDX. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Can't wait to visit again.

Went with my four year old. My kiddo had a small outburst which I was handling, and one of the staff interrupted me to inform me that if we couldn't get it under wraps we would need to leave.
My kiddo's outburst had lasted a matter of seconds. She's four. It happens, and I was handling it. You startled her, traumatized her, and shocked me to a point that I absolutely will not be returning.
The coffee, hot cocoa, and snacks were decent. But to have staff that think it is their business to butt into a parent calming down a distressed child the instant a child starts to show emotion is unacceptable. The line had been long, the day was busy, and my daughter had been incredibly patient for a long time for a preschooler.

Easily the best coffee shop on the West side. Tucked in a post office from over a century ago. The coffee is truly dialed-in. Baked goods expertly crafted. Breakfast and lunch are amazing. Beer, wine, tea. The Internet is great. I live behind the cafe and often work here w/ no problems. And they rotate art on the walls monthly, all sold by local artists. Great veg options.

WIFI DOES NOT WORK! Waited in a huge line, fought for a seat, and paid an exorbitant amount of money for mediocre food… just to find out that the WiFi won’t work. The staff told me it was working fine despite no one sitting near me being able to connect.
I think they turned it off intentionally to open up more seating. Kind of a crappy business practice.
