This store was as good as its reputation, filled with amazing collection of Portland souvenir…read moregoods, stationary items, apparels and local made food products. The store was clean and organized. The prices of the items were comparable to other shops we had visited in and around Portland. Among the products, I loved their magnet wall full of unique designs. There were really nice stickers and postcards. After exploring the store for several minutes, we picked few magnets and stickers. Staff members were friendly and interacting with guests. The checkout was quick and easy. Highly recommend this store to anyone looking to do souvenir shopping in downtown Portland.

They have a nice location right by Powell's Books so it was a nice way to hit two birds with one stone. Everything in this shop made for a great gift, from stationary to stickers to apparel for all ages, and even Portland themed children's books. The staff were super friendly and helped look in the back to get me more sizes in the children's shirts. This was a nice stop for souvenirs without paying airport prices.

We had such a fabulous time at Clockwork celebrating my best friend's birthday in early April! We…read morewere in on April 11th and every member of the staff was kind and helpful. We did the classic tasting without any add-ons except for mimosas while we were there. The highlights? We were raving about the vanilla scones (so simple, so good!), the meat pie, and the tea sandwiches. Every tea we selected was delicious and the pomegranate mimosas were a highlight for all of us. I encourage leaning into the theme, get dressed up, wear a fascinator, and fall into wonderland! Notes: reservations are highly encouraged due to limited space, so definitely make sure you reserve ahead of time! Allow extra time for parking - this is in the heart of downtown Beaverton and may require a little bit of a walk, but don't let that discourage you, keep circling and you'll find something, or settle for a nice little jaunt and enjoy the charm of downtown Beaverton.

What a fantastic gem this is!…read more Reservations are highly recommended and we had made one several months in advanced. We were in on a Saturday afternoon and nearly every table was occupied while we were there, yet it felt like we were the only table. The setting is very cool. There's so many hidden gems as you look around the space. Even down to their dinnerware and teapots. Each one unique and fun, enough to generate table conversations. Our server, Joey, was fantastic! He took the time to go over his favorite teas and answer any questions we had about ones we were interested in. I'm not a huge tea fan and I really enjoyed the one I got (birthday black tea-decaf). The food was so yummy! Our party were all so excited to try everything. The vanilla scone was the standout for me, but I did truly enjoy everything. My only caution is that parking can be a bit of a headache in the area so be aware ahead of time, but do not let that stop you from making a reservation for afternoon tea, it's worth it!

The owner Diana is one of the sweetest and funniest humans ever. Her husband Bryan is also very kind and friendly. It's always a pleasant visit to their storefront.

Need to also mention that ABW does a fabulous job at championing/collaborating with local artisans who reflect the diversity within the fabric of Portland's art culture--not only offering high quality products, but operating with great integrity and heart.
