The breakfast sandwich was REALLY good and puts other coffee shop sandwiches to shame. The staff was very friendly. The inside was... interesting. A lot of random things thrown together and it feels like no one cares. I didn't like getting my own coffee from a slow pumping carafe. It took a long time, and with a line of people behind me, I felt like I couldn't fill my full glass. Refills are not free, so what's the point of making me fill my own glass, especially from that slow serving container?

I really dislike being the "picky" person, and by no means would I consider myself a coffee snob.. but I am a barista. As I write this, I am staring at my hideous, nasty coffee. I ordered a coconut milk latte with hazelnut. The service was pretty quick, especially for a latte and one guy at the counter.. but upon taking a sip (while still in the shop) I quickly realized this drink was disgusting and not at all what I had ordered.
I went to the counter and asked for another shot, taking the lid off to maybe have the barista (dark haired dude with a nose piercing) notice that it was definitely not what I ordered... charged me for the shot, which is fine, and then proceeded to take less than 10 seconds to pull one. I'm assuming it was a short shot, as shot times vary on each roast, I didn't care too much. To no avail, the drink was still disgusting.
I'm assuming he built the drink with hot water (like an americano) and put some coconut milk in there for color. I'm absolutely upset, mainly because my coffee was like $6 and my boyfriend and I decided to go to an *actual* coffee shop instead of Dutch/BR. Would have been way more satisfied had we gone to another place.
The drink is basically liquid. Doesn't resemble a latte at all. The coconut milk is starting to separate, which is what leads me to believe he built it with water and not milk. I would've asked for a new drink all together, but he wasn't friendly and led me to feel if I asked, we'd have a problem.
There goes $6 literally down the drain. -

I like it here, a lot. The owner is nice and personable. The prices in coffee, sandwiches, and muffins are all reasonably priced and delicious, with plenty if vegetarian and vegan options, as well as a lot of choices for omnivores. Seating can be limited and when there's a line, it can feel a bit cramped, but it's just as easy to get everything to go.

Boo. Lame. Weird vibes immediately. The lady that took my order seemed irritated that I was there. Gross smoothie and gross cookie. I will definitely not be back.

Had the chai latte and a gluten free muffin while I sat in a cozy spot to work on my laptop. I would say that it is an intimate coffee shop with the ability to work and study due to its small size and close proximity to others. There's a small children's nook in the back corner with toys and books. It definitely has a Portland hipster vibe to it - more like old hipster than it being trendy hipster.
