Crema's Take
“The owner's confidence in serving Portland's best coffee is completely justified—their single-origin espresso (currently featuring beans from Tanzania) is bright and clean with real complexity that shines whether you're drinking it straight or in a specialty drink. Beyond the exceptional coffee, the cafe has become a genuine community hub thanks to a thoughtful owner who remembers faces, sources incredible fresh pastries, and creates an art-filled space that feels like visiting a creative friend's living room. If you want specialty coffee that tastes like someone actually cares about every cup, plus a matcha program worth ordering, this is worth seeking out.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Parking available.

Really love the coffee and the croissants. Nice environment, and the owner is really nice too. Love this spot.
Espresso (beans from Tanzania) and service are both excellent. Our barista was very friendly and helpful. Wonderful spot.
Ah-mazing!! The art is so dope! They are so nice! The pastries were fresh! I have to try the lemon curd with the blueberry muffin next time! My matcha was great! I love that they have coconut milk, my favorite! The jams are jamming! Great space for meet ups, working, and sitting…
