A charming local cafe!…read more We've tried the matcha, hojicha, yuzu matcha spritz, miso honey latte, and chai lattes and all were yummy. The quality of their ingredients is good - probably the best I've found in the Eugene/Springfield area. Their vegan cinnamon roll is also good - rich/sweet frosting that balances well with the pastry that isn't dry and is sweet enough that makes you keep going in for the next bite. They have a bright, rustic interior with high ceilings, a variety of indoor/outdoor seating, and surrounded by a few local businesses (spice & tea, antique, plant stores). Service is fast, servers are friendly. This is a good place to wfh. My only qualm is outlets are hard to come by.

I'm going to try the matcha next, but the ube with espresso was excellent. Friendly, fairly quick service, cute Eugene vibe shop. If I wanted to hang out at a coffee shop, this would be the place, I love ube, and it's not a common flavor. They do it, and they do an exceptional job with it. Definitely looking forward to trying other drinks in the future. Check them out if you're near the 5th st public market.

Service by Emma was attentive and friendly, with sage advice about options. Ordered the same honey challah bread from the weekend, but sliced and toasted with butter. $10/loaf Amazing butter. Decided to add salt and cracked pepper and then I discovered they had an awesome hot sauce. Added a few drops of that, too, and it is very good toast. Decided to pick up some additional mini challah loaves $6 to freeze and take back for family's Christmas. Also ordered the maple syrup winter squash cinnamon roll $8. It was heated and delicious. Could not leave without trying the chocolate chip cookies just $2. I was persuaded by MR two are better than one and now I have one for the road. For a drink decided to try one of the J-Teas they serve. Just guess which one.

I'm happy to report that it passed the road-trip test--and was genuinely the best avocado toast I've ever had. The French toast latte was legit too: sweet, cozy and delicious without being over-the-top. The café itself is beautiful, with a stylish interior and gorgeous plants everywhere. Excellent food, great coffee and wonderfully kind service. I highly recommend stopping here!

I like the taste of their coffee. It has a nice, smooth taste. The baristas here are super awesome. They greet you right away and they absolutely know their way behind the counter.

There was a lady who showed up behind me and within a few minutes, the female barista up front let the lady behind me know that they are already working on her drink. I thought to myself, wow!

Trip coffee can be amazing, disastrous and everything in between. Coffee has a daily limit, so if…read moreyou pick the wrong place, your coffee adventure for that day could be a waste. It's not like going to a bad bar or even restaurant where you still can eat a few hours later. Coffee has a small window and a maximum amount of intake. That being said, this morning we chose wisely. Not only did we use Yelp but we backed up our decision with a google search and that took us to Reddit. Equiano was a top suggestion on both sites. And we understand why. The service was 100% top notch. Helpful. Friendly and knowledgeable, not only about what they offered but about the regions best shops! The coffee itself was very expressive. The Camaroon was totally my style with an earthier tone and the Chai was delightful. The outdoor seating was so very comfortable with a unique sort of panache that I would love to have at my neighborhood coffeeshop. The raked gravel was a nice touch. And even though they didn't have indoor seating with the drizzly day, it was a highlight that I will be repeating in our future travels.

On those occasions when I am fortunate enough to be in the EUG, then Vero is a must. Full stop…read more It's not just the coffee, it's not just the vibe, it's not just the fab location...it's the whole package. Vero has taken that corner lot, in what is probably a turn-of-the-century house, and has created a phenomenal kaffehaus. It is built to enjoy some of the beautiful Oregon weather, and even withstand some of the rainy Eugene weather. The inside is generally sprinkled with students, seeking quiet moments of academic focus or other pursuits, and the outside is conversational and comfortable. Oh, and the coffee. I'm always one to try the house brew, and Vero is always ready with a freshly brewed cup. Their latte skills are pretty solid, and their espresso is strong and finishes nicely. I find the real hook to be that their coffee is far better than corporate Seattle, and costs significantly less. Sure, you pay a pretty hefty price for some of their breakfast or lunch fare (think $15/sammich), but their coffee is way competitive and their service is outstanding. I'm there for the coffee in the atmosphere; anything else is a pure bonus, and that includes the outstanding patio. Parking is on the street, because you're close to downtown, so you're on your own. But pretty much half of the patrons are either walking or riding a bike, so it's easy to handle. Pricing for the drinks is very fair, if not advantageous, and the value far outstrips what you pay, anyway. To me, Vero is as good as it gets for Eugene coffee, and there is no shortage of competition. Get out and enjoy!

My husband and I were just visiting Oregon for a short trip and randomly found this spot for brunch…read moreand I'm so glad we did. As someone who eats gluten-free, it's usually hard to find places where I can actually enjoy the whole menu without feeling limited, and where the food is genuinely good. Everything was so delicious that I didn't even think to take a photo before we finished! We had the goat cheese appetizer, veggie Mac and cheese, and Nashville hot sandwich, and everything was amazing. I also really appreciated that everything is made in-house, even the potato chips! Even after all that food, we left feeling satisfied but not overly full, which was a nice surprise. Honestly, it was one of the best gluten-free meals I've had in a long time. If we're ever back in Oregon, we'll definitely be coming again.
