Crema's Take
“Keia has an exceptional memory for her regulars' coffee preferences and will remember exactly how you take your latte after just one visit, making this a genuinely personal spot in a sea of chain coffee shops. The pour-overs and espresso drinks are solid, the pastries pair perfectly with a slow morning, and the subscription service offers surprisingly good value if you want to keep the experience going at home. Fair warning: service can be inconsistent depending on who's behind the counter, so you might encounter some gruffness alongside the warmth.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

This place rules! I went on the website and found an incredibly reasonably priced subscription service and they delivered it to my house with the most sweet packaging and note. Truly feels like a community Cafe!
Was there recently during a trip to Portland. I like to help small local business versus the big national brands (Starbucks, etc).. I was not impressed whatsoever with either the coffee quality or service.
Very thorough coffee process for all the coffee lovers. Adorable mom and pop local brewers. Delicious coffee & the sweetest service. Located in the Lloyd center second level.
