If you're ever in the area and want good espresso or drip coffee this would be a nice place to go. It's clean, with multiple tables, and chairs. A wonderful place to catch up with friends, or get some work done. They also have cookies and pastries. read more

I want to like this place so badly. The place itself is nice. Not a large place with tons of seating, but floor to ceiling windows make it feel larger. The music isn't too loud and is KINKFm, I think. It doesn't suck and I don't hear it over my own earphones. The tables are small. They also sell gifts and cards - very "usual" looking. Nothing fancy or offbeat. The service, while pleasant, was only a fair experience. There was more than a little conversation going on between employees and friends on the other side of the counter. I hate that, but apparently many folks do not. So the Big Two: I got a simple joe. Nothing fancy - blonde and sweet here. The coffee was burnt and cold. It took 20 seconds in the microwave to warm it up. Mmmm, microwaved coffee. I got a lemon loaf with it (because I love lemon) and, again, only fair. The only thing missing was the wrapper. The wifi is free with no codes to enter. It seems quick. No outlets, though. Not a one. The place has a verrrry generic feel to it. I just realized that's what it is. It has no soul. Maybe I'm here on a bad day, but it feels kind of like the nearly-fast-food version of a cafe. So there it is. My coffee's still cold and there's one bite out of that lemon loaf, but I'm leaving. You may see several cafe reviews from me today. Man I hope not. read more

When I go out for coffee I don't want to feel like I'm at a rock concert, country music festival, rave, or other music venue. This place has soft, innocuous music conducive to relaxing, chatting, or reading. Additionally, they have several fine sugar free syrups available for coffee and Italian sodas so I don't feel as though I'm barely tolerated because I don't have a 'celebrity' disease. Service is pleasant, prompt, and accurate every time. And the vanilla bean scone (yes, sugar, rare treat for me) is possibly the best pastry I've ever found at a coffee shop. Use a fork, it's that tender. read more

I went there today at about 3pm, ordered my drink and realized that i had forgotten my credit card. I told the lady and she said thats fine just run back and get it. So ten minutes later i'm back and there was one person in front of me and she took about ten minutes to get them out of the way, that kinda put me off, but she remembered what drink i wanted at least! I have a feeling that most of their clientele is regulars who work in the area and go there every day, the people after me ordered a lot of "usuals" The thing i liked is that they give the same service to everyone, regulars or not, i was treated very kindly and like i was a regular as well, and havnig worked at Starbucks for 3 years, this is important to me. They could make their coffee a bit quicker, its not a place i'd go for a morning coffee on the way to work, but i'd definitely go there to meet with friends over a cup. read more

Back in the day, I would go out of my way to get a frappe from Coffee's On. They are still good and hit the spot on a hot summer day.

This is a nice little coffee shop. I find myself here at least once a week due to it's close proximity to my work. They've always provided a good cup of coffee and friendly service. I've only had one espresso drink here. It was well crafted with almond milk. It wasn't cheap, but it was tasty. There does seem to be many regulars here and I find it charming. The ambience is a bit stark and the location is in a strip mall. So those aspects aren't a big draw for me. All in all a friendly little place worthy of your support. read more

I had coffee there today with a colleague. The coffee was fine. I bought a brownie too. Asked the lady if it was fresh. She said it was a couple days old. It was either older than she thought or was bad from the start. $1.75 for this dry tasteless brownie that was so stale the frosting wouldn't stay on it. The atmosphere was non-existent, no atmosphere to speak of. No music or comfy couches. I won't be back. There are lots of coffee places so there's no reason to go to a place like this.

Let me start off with I would definitely come back. My latte was very tasty. My barista was a friendly gent who made our drinks accurately, and may I say the foam on my latte was amazing (I will fully admit that I am a foam conneseiur). The poor place lacks any kind of ambiance. It's located in a newer strip mall and so lacks the warmth and coziness you would get from places like Bipartisan Cafe. There are a handful of tables and plenty of chairs. No couches, but if you're into major studying , the tables will suit you. For a place that you want good coffee and to be in and out quickly, I would definitely try this place. read more

It's a cozy little spot with a small dining room, outdoor space and local offerings. The owner greeted me, and explained that she was baking more pastries after being nearly depleted, but there were several breads and scones available in addition to her breakfast menu. She also has an extensive selection of flavored Torani syrups to make the perfect cup. She'd explained that most of small coffee spots closed over Covid, but that she made a point to keep her hours for shift workers, and was one of the few remaining in Portland. A full meal would've put me to sleep, so I chose the berry scone and a caramel latte. She warmed my pastry and made sure I was pleased with my drink as a regular customer walked in and ordered his usual. The coffee did the trick keeping me alert and the berries burst of flavor with each bite of scone I took. As I pulled into my driveway, I smiled at the human connection and experience I had supporting another small business and was grateful for Yelp's resource guiding me there.

So I guess I can only come to this place once a year! :( This cafe is inside the Russian grocery store, I would say it's an hidden gem! The place was so clean, and filled with good vibes! We ordered borscht, chicken Pel Meni, potato Pierogies, Napoleon cake, and strawberry Matcha. Everything is delicious!!!!!! Borscht tasted like mom made! It felt so hearty and comforting!!

See you again next year!!
