Absolute gem of a shop. We went in during a day trip to the area and I had such a lovely and…read morewonderful conversation about spices with the shop owner, Anne. She was so very knowledgeable and friendly and took a huge amount of time to explain the origin of where they get their spices and also how to use them in a lot of ways. I ended up buying multiple packages of the recipe kits for some of the Indian recipes so that I can try some of the seasonings that I'm not familiar with prior to buying. I wish that it was closer, but anytime I'm in the area. I will be headed back that way for more knowledgeable conversation from a fellow foodie... Oh yeah, and to re-supply!

Wonderful shop lady helped me and I found everyone in Portland was so friendly. The shop was adorable .

It sort of just evaporated. A real loss, because I loved the place. But I don't want anyone to make the trip and be disappointed. It's gone.

I want to love it... funky store, very interesting. But it seems that each time I walk in, "I can't…read moreget no, satisfaction" - its a funky place that requires adult supervision and navigation assistance. And that is not what I have gotten. :-( Which is a bummer. The FIRST time I walked in, the cute owner was being interviewed by local news folk... and with all that attention, there was zero attention for in-coming clients. The second and third and forth times I've been in... not full... not a lot of people... same thing. I will keep trying until I get some help. Which is weird from what I hear from the CN's fans. Condiments, teas, do-it-yourself scrubs, masks, oils, soaps, planters with all kinds of cute little succulents. You'd think you are in a magic shop somewhere Harry Potter may ask Hermione or Snape to whip up (so he can get a table at the Railtrail when it's at peak craziness!). A little bit hippy, a lot new age, it's a store of wonders. But it's not for everyone. My 18 year old won't be caught in this beautiful little store. I hope I get caught (by the staff) and get a guided tour and introduction to something new - I'm a sucker for body scrubs...

Crose Nest made GORGEOUS spice blend vials for the favors at my wedding. We chose Black Lava Salt and a golden Mesquite seasoning, and Kinsey (the lovely owner of Crose Nest) layered them in glass vials, creating beautiful landscapes. You can choose from SO many spices, or create teas, bath blends, etc - so many options for cooking, drinking, and pampering! Kinsey put each vial in a beautiful linen drawstring bag, and hand-stamped our custom wedding stamp on the front of each one. Our guests were delighted by these favors. I can't recommend this service from Crose Nest enough!
