Nice staff and we got both the soyrizo and bacon breakfast burritos and they were both delicious!

I ordered the Peach Streusel Muffin, and it had mold laced throughout the whole thing, and on the outside paper 🤢 I can't believe I ate some of it before realizing it.

Thank you for your reply.
I appreciate the reminder that things can go wrong with baked goods, especially in warmer weather. I also appreciate the reminder that a simple request for a replacement could have avoided a detailed review and the involvement of health authorities, but this was a to go order, and that was not possible. Also, it was appropriate and the responsible thing to do. Not only for my safety, but for others as well. You clearly show acknowledgment of the problem but have not implemented policies to address it.
I’ll consider sticking to places that don’t make everything from scratch, though I must admit, I’d prefer to stick to establishments that prioritize customer health, safety, and quality over excuses.
Wishing you the best in keeping your baked goods fresh and your responses polished!

Outstanding coffee! The BlackBerry Lavender Latte was a 10/10 and very smooth. The coffee wasn’t bitter and just right. Perfect for a morning wake up stop.

Love our neighborhood coffee shop! Great people and amazing off-beat, kitschy, funky vibes. My favorite is the honey and maple latte!

I've got mixed feelings on this place anymore. Depending on who is working here, the experience can vary. Some of the people working up front seemed annoyed that you chose to walk through the door, but the younger people working upfront are very friendly.
The coffee is good and I like the ambiance. But when I don't know who will be working the front, I tend to go somewhere that I know I'll be welcomed.

PDX Parent recommended this as a kid friendly coffee shop. My 2-year-old granddaughter enjoyed the play corridor, but I was shocked by how truly filthy all the toys were. A toss in soapy water once a week would be a start! I wiped down each item she picked up. I hope this feedback reaches someone. Coffee was fine. The name Space Monkey Coffee alone does not equal "winner," as described by PDX Parent. I don't see myself going back. All the best.

Perfectly nice lattes. Seating isn't as comfortable as I wish it was.

I don't typically enjoy Portland coffee, and they have that flavor, but I like theirs. i'm not sure what it is about Portland coffee that makes me feel a little ill and I shudder at the flavor, but I don't get that from Space Monkey. Additionally, their food is unique and delicious, not overly greased, sweet, or processed.
Their tuna is sorta dry and bland, but in a way I absolutely love. I'm not sure how they keep breaking food and coffee rules for the better, but they're pulling it off.

Old school Portland. They're quick, friendly, and still do punch cards (yay!). Support small local businesses!
Perfect. 10/10 recommend for anyone who misses old Portland or who just wants to get some coffee.
Dietary restrictions: Tasty gluten free options, didn't mess up my celiac at all.

Service was great, coffee was good, despite the size and packaging. We wanted to stay and enjoy the vibes but it was somewhat full for 3 extra people.

I love this place. It's old school Portland and I like the vibe. Will always support. Have been coming here for so long. I know it's hard times for small businesses and this place is no exception. Please support your local small businesses!
That said, recently it's feeling pretty unclean. I will no longer get food from here, only coffee.
In addition to the general feel of dirtiness, they let a homeless man basically live on the sofa, with his blanket. I've seen him there for months. When the shop is closed, he's outside on the street with the same blanket.
I know hearts may be in the right place, but that sofa he lives on in your shop for hours on end is beyond unsanitary. It makes the entire cafe seem very, very dirty and therefore unwelcoming. Not because his homelessness is an issue (he seems quiet and respectful), but the level of uncleanliness is not okay for anyplace serving food.
I want to keep supporting you. I have passed you up a few times recently though because I see that man CONSTANTLY camped out on your sofa, and honestly it is too unclean. When your main room is this visible unsanitary and unkept, how can the kitchen be?

I was a little bit iffy going in but I trusted the reviews and full seats. So glad I did because this was the best coffee we had during our trip! Appreciate all the vegan options and the muffin I got for later was amazing.
