    Lavender latte and blueberry cheese pastry.
    Christine L.

    I'm so happy this place exists! Perfect for working, lots of seats and outlets, free WiFi, 3 soundproof booths and unisex bathroom. 5 star for space, decor and ambiance for a work setting but the pastry and drinks are just okay in my opinion. Not bad but not something I'd go out of my way to drive to and order. Mainly come here for the workspace. Street parking has generally been okay to find. The menu says latte but they have flavor syrups that aren't listed. I ordered a lavender latte and the lavender flavor was extremely mild to the point where I didn't quite notice it. Blueberry cheese pastry was pretty good but not amazing. I really appreciate the very reasonable pricing!! Can't remember but it was lower than average.

    Coming from the Bay Area, it makes me appreciate a place like this where they specifically call it a workspace. Prices are honest and actually very reasonable, coffee is perfect to go along with the work ahead of you that day. Appreciated the warmth and friendliness of everyone, and also the atmosphere of the place in general. When I come back to Portland, this will definitely be the place I come to work and chill!

    i stopped by here with my friend to get some work done. the neighborhood is a little bit sketchy as there was a man who stumbled in cursing, and reeking of cigarette smoke, but the baristas and the other patrons didn't pay him any attention and he left. the baristas working here were kind, but nothing too special to note because i just ordered and sat down. noise level wise, we were able to finish a bit of our work as when we were here the cafe was quiet. there are plenty of outlets and great natural and artificial lighting and wifi to aid in getting work done. there was also a private booth for meetings and calls when i last came here too. i got the 16 oz mocha and i liked how light and smooth the coffee was! the tulip latte art was also really pretty and i almost didn't want to drink it... studying rating: 8.5/10!!! a good place to come and get work done.

    I miss the pre-pandemic days of dragging myself off my home couch to go work for a few hours at a coffee shop. This place allows that to be possible even now with masked staff / patrons and distanced / sanitized tables. What makes it a good place to work? Outlets near almost every table. Music is a good volume that allows you to think but not overhear everyone's conversations. Free wifi with password displayed at every table. What could be better? Pastry and coffee options were just fine. Not the most amazing coffee cake I've ever had but certainly edible, and a little odd to add whip cream on top of apple cider. Still good. Only other thing missing for me is a comfy couch or oversized chair to nestle into!

    It's so nice (and rare) to find a nice coffee shop where you can actually sit and work while enjoying delicious coffee these days! This coffee shop was built for getting work done. There are three of these cool little individual study rooms, a printer and lots of other tables! The inside has great lighting, decorations and ambiance. And the coffee...AMAZING! I tried the maple cinnamon latte with oat milk and it was fall in a cup. Especially with the whipped cream! Worth every calorie. The baristas were super sweet and welcoming too. Only sad part is that it's closed on Sundays!

    Are you looking for a place to WFH away from home? This is your place!! A few blocks away from Hawthorne, Eastside Coffee Bar is a small, quiet cafe with delicious coffee, mellow lighting, and plenty of seating. They also feature a couple of phone booth-like offices (?) for private phone calls and/or video calls. They offer a wide selection of coffee options from Coava and pastries for some work/study fuel. They have the wifi password available at every table, preventing my awkward self from trying to look for it by the register. I went on a Monday morning, and it was pretty busy. Most of the tables were filled for the entirety of my stay. Definitely try to arrive early if you plan on establishing home base for a couple of hours. Most of the people there were either studying or working, so I didn't feel too distracted. Thank you to Eastside for providing us options to WFH!! I'll be back!

    I'm stupid and made a huge mistake. They, on the other hand, are so nice, kind, wonderful... All I…read morecan say now is... customer for life. I've been here quite a few times and have really enjoyed the Aribic People's latte with its strong cardamon overtones, the Chocolate Jesus and today, the Mucho Calliente, which promises a chili infusion, and cinnamon infused espresso with dark chocolate! But wait..., oh no, I forgot to ask for oat... this is probably (certainly) dairy. Argh! Sorry, I have no Viking blood and can not digest cow milk. I would rather battle the aforementioned Viking before I'd endure the results of ... dairy! So, I brought my drink up fully prepared to pay for another and everyone there, EVERYONE, in almost unison, refused to take my payment. They kindly and quickly made another and... oh... spicy indeed, but chocolatey and balanced! One of the best spicy mochas I've had anywhere ... and I am an absolute Spella snob and proud of it! Inside secret: Don't miss out on the great selection of truly authentic Egyptian foods and pastries, as well as some really nice necklaces and earrings. If you need that piece to pull your whole Nefertiti look together before going out for a Saturday of dancing and fun... this is your hidden gem!

His hospitality set the tone for the whole evening--warm, relaxed, and full of conversation between people from all over the world. One of the highlights was watching Joe prepare traditional Egyptian coffee over hot sand, a centuries-old method that slowly heats the coffee and brings out deep, rich flavors. But the real comfort of the night came in the form of Egyptian Sahlab. Imagine a thick, creamy winter drink made from warm milk, gently sweetened and flavored with vanilla and orange blossom water. Those of you who tried it know what I am talking about! It was very nice to get a beautiful taste of Egyptian culture right here on Hawthorne. Huge thanks to Joe for the incredible hospitality and for sharing these traditions with us. I hope they expand to include a full Egyptian, Mediterranean food menu.

    overall: 3.5/5 drink: 3/5…read moreservice 4/5 ambiance: 4/5 it's been a few months since I first tried Golden Hour Coffee, and I am thinking about going back to try other drinks. I got the seasonal peppermint mocha drink- all the flavors were very light and not too sweet which I appreciated. I only wished that there was stronger coffee taste (my preference), as it tasted like a warm milk drink with a hint of peppermint and dash of bitterness from the coffee. I do wonder how their drinks will taste iced so I do plan on coming back! I arrived with my party of 2 just before a small line formed, and ordered my seasonal drink and a drip coffee. there were 2 baristas at the time, but after we ordered one of them left(?) and only one barista remained to take orders and make drinks. it was busy and as a barista myself I understand so I didn't mind the longer wait and understood that they forgot the drip coffee we ordered due to the small rush. Upon reminding them after the customers behind us were served, the barista was super apologetic and made the drip coffee immediately. However, the coffee was lukewarm and didn't have a strong coffee taste either (according to my friend). Overall a cute little cafe on Hawthorne, but I wouldn't drive out of my way for their coffee. I would be willing to give this place another shot if I was in the area, as their other seasonal drinks look yummy!

The two-tops are fairly snug together so it can feel like you're eavesdropping or being listened to. There's counter seating along one side which had some refreshing morning sun- when a couple seats opened up there, we moved and were very comfy. There are a couple of cozy chairs in the front window and some additional counter and lounge seating in an adjoining room. The drink quality and presentation were high quality and delicious. The cost of a 12oz latte ($7) with no special milk was higher than other cafes I've been to recently around Portland including places that create their own syrups for specialty drinks of the month. That said, I don't begrudge the cost of a masterfully hand-crafted, drinkable cup of art and that is exactly what I received. I think the cost stuck in my head because the welcome did not feel particularly warm at the register. They were having an animated conversation with the barista and I couldn't help but feel like we were inconveniencing them by saying good morning and trying to order. When we picked up our orders, the barista was warm and friendly. Overall, it's a delightful spot in an equally lovely neighborhood.
