    Cute decor
    Jed N.

    Beautiful community cafe with yummy drinks and treats. A nod to Mexican coffee drinks and pastries like conchas. So good! Plenty of seating for various group sizes. Bathroom is locked and clean. Decor is lush and artistic. Barista was very nice. I think they often partner with local groups and orgs like the local college.

    A large coffee shop, though located in a rougher part of town (unhoused individuals were making transactions right outside). They serve standard drip coffee and other drinks, but pour-over options aren't available. Overall, an okay spot for coffee.

    I love the cappuccino pinolillo with a Latin American spice steamed into the milk was so delicious. As good a "cap" as any premo coffee shop around the PDX. The beans are Latin American sourced fair trade and organic per the barista owner. By the Park Blocks, Pearl District (Couch & NW Park Ave), large space to meet up with friends, enjoy the music and maybe work a little. Work more and enjoy more with the coffee buzzzzzz sip by sip it up! Enjoyed - location, service and coffee quality!

    Amazing coffee and super friendly staff. The coffee was delicious. I asked where i could buy the beans, they let me know the owners friend roasted the beans and werent for sale. Then i had to buy an iced latte after i had already had a latte. Next time im in Portland i will stopping by for a cup

    This local coffee shop has a cozy vibe inside and plenty of comfortable seating making it the perfect stop to sit down and do some work or catch up with friends. After speaking with the barista, I found out that this shop has been numerous other businesses throughout the years including a gift store and a latin restaurant. The wifi is free and the drinks themselves are well made. I ordered an iced mocha which was the perfect blend between the sweet flavors of the chocolate with the sharper taste of the espresso. The location is prime as well being just around 5 minutes walking distance downtown from the Powell's books on Burnside and other local shops. Overall, I would definitely recommend this spot if you are looking for a new place to sit down and get some work done or just want to try a different coffee shop near downtown Portland.

    Mole Mocha
    Ploy N.

    10/10 Mole Mocha and Chilaquiles from Ancestro! The Mocha had a good blend of chocolate and savory mole. It's delicious. The Chilaquiles with Chorizo was also handsdown the best chilaquiles I've ever had. Every single tortilla chips were crispy! The refried black bean blended amazingly with the crema fresca. Egg was perfectly cooked and the chorizo was so flavorful and not overly salty. Loved! The only letdown was the Corn Latte. Might just be because we're not used to that flavor profile though. Space was big but still packed on a weekend. Would definitely recommend you check them out.

    Vanilla latte

    Cute ambiance and decor inside. Ordered breakfast taco - corn tortilla, fried egg, house chorizo and salsa. Hubby ordered Tamal Ahogado with chicken, poblano, Pamela, salsa verde and sour cream. And vanilla latte. This is a no nonsense place - family owned you get what you get and you don't get Sauces are unforgettably amazing. Best taco I've had.

    This was a really cute little coffee shop. The service was great. The ambience was really cute. I love the live plants and the magazines just a cute aesthetic overall and the barista did pay close attention to our orders and what we wanted and the Drakes came out perfect. I would definitely come back again.

    Cute cafe for hanging out but I will definitely miss Ancestro's presence. Excited to see what comes next!

    Mole Mocha
    Sophie H.

    One of my all time favorites. This location is super close to Powell's and right off the park blocks. Jacob is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I've come in often over the last year and it's always nice to see him. He works very hard and deserves some crazy recognition. The mole mocha is something I truly believe everyone needs to try. The subtly of the blend is perfection. Similarly, Ancestro joins on weekends with some INCREDIBLE brunch options. (The Chilaquiles were awesome). Love the vibe of this cafe. It's quite large with larger group tables, smaller ones and some lounge seats. There are board games and chess boards available to use and the whole place is full of great plant life.

    I had the opportunity to visit Cadejo Coffee over a weekend trip. First things first: the mole mocha is incredible! Rich, unique, and absolutely worth the hype. The pastries are excellent too; I had a croissant with cajeta that was absolutely delicious. Beyond the coffee, what truly sets Cadejo apart is the energy, customer service, and genuine sense of community you feel the moment you walk in. On my last day in town, I experienced an unsettling incident nearby at a park and ended up inside the coffee shop shortly after. Without even needing to explain much, the owner and staff were incredibly attentive and supportive to everyone in the space, making people feel seen, safe, and cared for. One of the gentlemen working the counter (I'm assuming the owner) went above and beyond by offering to walk a woman out to make sure she was okay. It was a powerful reminder of what community really looks like; people looking out for one another with compassion & intention.Cadejo Coffee is more than just a great cup of coffee; it's a place rooted in care, awareness, and connection. I will continue to support this coffee shop for a long time, and I highly recommend that you do the same.

    Service was amazing! Food was even better. A pop up serving Mexican food was going on while we were visiting and it was amazing! Would eat breakfast here everyday if I could. Got chilaquiles w chicken! Lattes were great and there were some games to play while you wait.

    Mole Mocha Latte
    Marvin C.

    Tried this place two days in a row! The first day I stopped in for a second cup of coffee and was recommended their Spiced Coffee soda, which is the owners take on an espresso tonic. Very refreshing, flavorful and not too sweet. The owner was very personable and recommended I come back the following day since they host Ancestro on the weekends for a breakfast menu. We came back the following day and tried their cafe de olla and mole mocha lattes. I love trying unique drinks so I had to try the mole mocha and it was so good! Think less mole and more of a smoky mocha latte. The cafe de olla latte was good but on the sweeter side. We arrived an hour before Ancestro shop closed and they were sold out of their main menu items but we ended up trying their tres leches French toast topped with peaches and basil. Incredibly flavorful, the texture resembled a Mexican boudin cake and the toppings really elevated the toast. Would order again! The space was great to bring a large group of friends or even work remotely. They have board games and magazines so feel free to come early and leave late.

    After drooling over their Instagram, I knew I had to go. To my dismay I arrived at something that…read moredidn't look like it was a cafe or even opened. I wasn't even sure I was at the right place, thought they were still transitioning from one location to another. Until someone who shared the kitchen popped out. I was told that I should order online and come by for pick up, and was strongly urged to do so because these cheesecakes were really good. When I saw that they were doing a contactless store front, I knew I had to go. This was my opportunity to try it. I texted the owner to ask if the flavor I had my eye on was available. I was halfway there before the owner responded that they had one slice of pandan cheesecake left. There are multiple forms of payment with a card reader, and various apps to pay with online which made this a breeze. The owner Kiana, even popped to introduce herself which I thought was so nice! The flavors here aren't your typical strawberry, chocolate, peanut butter cheesecakes, even though she does offer some variation of them. There's pandan, ube, lemongrass, ginger mango, passionfruit, matcha, guava, pineapple raspberry, and I heard she even cooks up something with the pickle brine from the other business that operates in that kitchen. I thought this would be one of those situations where the food won't look like the picture. The pictures are obviously styled, they look stunning. Nope! The food looked just like what was on Instagram. I am a long time lover of cheesecake, dare I say it's my favorite of the cakes. The condensed milk ube mirror glaze was a lot thicker than I thought it would be and held its form. It wasn't runny and goopy. Loved that it wasn't a sticky mess. The crust was very very thick, I've always wanted more crust on other cheesecakes. On the description, it says it's "jasmine scented almond shortbread cookie crust" slightly saltier than most crusts I've had, but still very enjoyable. I've only had the traditional graham cracker crust and I'm afraid this almond shortbread crust has ruined all other cheesecake crusts for me. I have been disappointed at a lot of places using pandan, because the flavor just wasn't there, not Muse cheesecakes though. Pandan was present indeed. I would have loved if it was a little stronger, but I think that would have overpowered the cheesecake. Each component of the cheesecake are so different and complex on its own. They come together in delicious harmony to make this beautiful slice. I grew up with a lot of Vietnamese food and pandan has a very special place in my stomach.. heart! I've never seen jasmine used outside of tea and condensed milk outside of Vietnamese iced coffee. Kiana definitely has a way with these ingredients and she's a cheesecake goddess! I really can't wait to try the calamansi, Ube, and whatever else is getting cooked up in this delicious kitchen.

    Muse cheesecakes make my heart sing and gets me doing a happy dance. I first heard of Muse…read morecheesecakes through instagram. She offers durian cheesecake. Whaaaat? Yep, you heard me right. Durian cheesecake!!!! I am Vietnamese-Cambodian and durian is my jam. I love its pungent goodness in all forms -- pure and un-doctored straight from the prickly shell, ice cream, smoothie, topping on mashed avocado dessert and now.. CHEESECAKE! ohhh my goodness. My heart. I have returned so many times and buying extra slices (possibly buying out her supply for the week...) to share with my family and friends, who have all raved about the cheesecake from here. Durian isn't her only flavor though. She has so many creative flavors and I've noticed she's had comfort flavors from different cultures. To top it off, the owner, Kiana, is a wonderful lady. She is a one woman team and is kicking butt at her game from what I've gathered in the short time I've known her. She could be dead tired, but always has a smile on her face. I almost forgot to rave about her TARO BURGER on a vegan bun. I don't know how frequently she makes them, but if you see it being offered, do yourself a favor and get it. The portion is quite large so be prepared for leftovers. Unfortunately for me, my carnivorous sister gobbled the other portion of my burger right up and didn't even miss her meat. It comes with a vegan mac salad on the side. I am not one to enjoy mac salads usually, I think it's due to the mayo (not a mayo fan), but I actually liked this version. I forgot to take a picture of the burger before it all got inhaled. Sad face.

I decided to visit Hawthorne Asylum, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere reminded me of a night market, except with permanent food carts. It has a fun, lively vibe, and there are so many different food options that there's something for everyone. It's a great place to come with friends or family since everyone can choose something different. There's also a bar in the middle of the food cart pod. We didn't get a chance to try it because we had already ordered boba tea from another vendor, but it looked like a great place to relax and enjoy a drink. I'll definitely check it out the next time I'm back. Overall, Hawthorne Asylum is a fun spot with a great atmosphere and an excellent variety of food.

The cheese and crack sundae has toasted marshmallow, chocolate, and cinnamon cracker crumbs. Omg the cinnamon crumbs are so good, that with the ice cream was really yummy (I'm a simple girl what can I say). The chocolate hardened into a chocolate shell and it was kind of only on the bottom of the cup so that was a little disappointing. The toasted marshmallow didn't add much, but maybe I'm biased bc I don't rlly care for toasted marshmallow ‍ Overall, the entire sundae is mainly a ton of vanilla ice cream. It's a big portion that I shared with someone else. Second time I went, I got the banana pudding sundae which was soooo good. I shared this with my friend and it was plenty. They give a good amount of banana pudding and you can tell it's quality. I saw bananas, the bread/wafer part, and it pairs nicely with the ice cream. Prob my favorite thing from this place. My other friend got the pbo which was also good. They layer oreo and peanut butter pudding so you get it all throughout the sundae which is nice. She also got an everything cookie which has literally everything in it. It was texturally interesting and not too sweet! Overall, good flavors and quality ice cream. The portions are a bit big and I wish they had half or even quarter sizes since these came in huge cups. At a certain point, the vanilla ice cream becomes flavorless bc there's so much of it but the sundaes were still pretty good!
