Crema's Take

This Portland gem shines brightest for those seeking a genuinely welcoming refuge, with a manager named Kyle who sets a notably warm tone that stands apart in the local coffee scene. While opinions on the coffee itself vary, regulars rave about the carefully chosen syrups like Holy Kakow, silky microfoam on drinks like their rose honey latte, and an impressive roster of fresh pastries and breakfast items that keep people coming back daily. It's the kind of place where the music, friendly faces, and comfortable sit-down atmosphere matter as much as what's in your cup—a true community gathering spot rather than just another caffeine transaction.

I've tried to like this cafe but I just can't. the service is really mid, very unfriendly portland barista vibes. the coffee is expensive and just *okay* for Portland standards, and there isn't a great selection of beans(and no roast dates either). so over all id say stop by less and more or another cafe in the area that at least is warm and friendly :/

I got a rose honey latte and a veggie sausage roll. The foam was so soft and the roll was also a great texture. Love the music and the friendliness. :)

Been going here almost daily for months now and highly recommend it. Love all the pastries I’ve ever tried there and they have Holy Kakow syrup which I love! Will say that there is variety in the amount of syrup in the lattes based on which barista is making the drink. However, atmosphere and service is 5/5 and I still love the drinks even when the syrup is heavy handed.

There's a hotel with a Starbucks in the corner. It's... Crowded. It's a Starbucks. I walked up the street, past some young parents waiting with their kids in the green strip going up for blocks, and came to this very cute cafe. I wanted the pastries. I got the coffee and it was good. It'd have been nice to sit and watch the sun start coming through the trees from the sidewalk tables. Maybe when I'm less schedule bound. That would be a very nice morning indeed.

Lovely coffee shop with nice employees and great drinks. Also got a bagel sandwich which was very filling and delicious! The manager, Kyle, is very welcoming and helpful. Be sure to check this shop out and enjoy their great outdoor seating!
