    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.

    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.

    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!

    We love their coffee. Their pinolillo coffee is also an experience. It's so different. I recommend you give it a try. They have pop-up breakfast vendors and today we tried Ancestro, their latest pop-up. My wife had the breakfast taco and I had the Banadito (a Mexican dip sandwich). No words but OMG. (See my menu post for the description). When we're in Portland we try to visit if we can.

    Mole Mocha

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    Loved both of my visits at Cadejo Coffee. They specialize in Mexican spices in their lattes. Great quality coffee and super cute ambiance inside the cafe. They are also happy to make any latte on their menu into a matcha drink. Efficient and friendly service, there was only one barista working both times I visited. Really enjoyed my visit and I would definitely come back next time I'm in Portland!

    Good morning to unique flavors, kind smiles, informative answers, and creativity! Cadejo was a pleasure to visit and their Cafe de Olla was wonderful in both its black form and as a latte. While there Ancestro was in the kitchen also making killer breakfast.

    Good, deep, dark roast coffee. Creative drinks. Mexican-inspired breakfast menu. Kind of a sketch area in the Pearl, but honestly, most of that district is. The interior is very inviting, warm, full of plants and ample seating. A world away from the grime just outside of those walls. Ordered a cortado. It was beautifully made-smooth and silky, but still retaining that darkness of the roast. I'd imagine that dark roast lends itself wonderfully to the specialty mocha and mole coffee drinks. The barista/maybe owner was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable. They even have pastries, including Mexican pastries (I spotted conchas)- the Mexican continuity is impeccable! Would return. Recommend.

    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.

Plenty of places to sit for solo diners to large-ish groups. Much of the seating is covered, and heated when the weather calls for it, and everything is kept clean. But people likely come here for the food, and this place doesn't dissapoint. There is a huge variety, from waffles, to Thai, to Sushi, Fish & chips, Mexican and so much more. There is even a bar in the back. I have to give a shout out to Smaaken Waffle Sandwiches. My partner had the chicken and waffle sandwich, and they were pretty happy about it. I had the Kid size PB & Bananas with honey, and OMG it was nummy. I took home half because it was a large serving. The waffles were perfect: crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. If you enjoy food cart dining, (or just haven't found a place you like), I encourage you to try this elevated cart dining experience. *I would caution people with mobility issues to not use the entrance at the corner, and use one of the other entrances instead.

It's crunchy, salty, and sweet. It's everything. But, I don't think my friends will eat it unless I take it out of the bag. I'd rather not share than to deceive. I do appreciate that the ingredients are on the bag though and have no buyers remorse. COOKIES I really like their cookies and appreciate the complementary cookie I received. My favorite is the white chocolate nutter butter. Also the 2oz chocolate chip; it was buttery, crispy and chewy in all the right places. I'm not a big chocolate fan but I like chocolate. This was perfect for me, but awakened my inner Cookie Monster. I love that they have 4oz and 2oz cookies. 2oz is a solid choice for me but the kids enjoy bigger cookies.
