I was in Lake Oswego doing a delivery and needed to find a place to conduct a little business…read moreafterwards. I did a search for coffee shops and Cathedral Coffee came up as being 5 minutes away. With a name like Cathedral it conjured up a vision of something grand. When I arrived, I was a little underwhelmed. The interior is pretty simplistic, but very clean. I was a little hungry and looked in the glass case. Very meager offerings, nothing vegan. I asked if the chai latte could be made vegan, and he assured me that it could be, so that's what I ordered with oat milk. I asked if there were any vegan food, he said they do carry some items but were all sold out. My order was brought out to where I was sitting. The chai latte was very delicious.

In my opinion, calling this a "bakery" is mis-leading - it's a charming cafe with very creative and…read moredelicious menu items as well as pastries and other baked items that defy description. The inside seating area is neat and clean, well-organized with tables and chairs. The display cases are well-lit, making one want to order one of everything! We ordered our lunches and drinks at the counter and everything arrived in a timely manner. I had the French Onion Soup. It was unlike anything I've ever had before - the cap of toasted parmesan, the toasted baguettes on the side, the broth filled to the brim with perfectly cartelized onions made it the most flavorful onion soup ever! My friend had the Heirloom Tomato Toast. Oh my goodness. Whoever came up with that dish created a miracle of flavor - from the brie cheese, to the toasted bread, to the cherry tomatoes, to the hot honey, to the fresh avocado, to the chive flowers, to the pink peppercorn and pistachio confetti, it was perfect on a plate. Almost too pretty to eat! Add a couple of hot drinks, a croissant, and lunch was the most perfect experience it could have been. Can't wait to go back! (I hear a macaron calling my name...)

First time here - was some of the best food I've eaten…read more For ages, I've been curious about quiches and I'm so glad that I waited for the courgette quiche here. It was so wonderfully fluffy with beautifully layered zucchini and puff pastry. The accompanying salad and dressing were mind blowing too - I'm not one who likes dressing with her salad but I could have gobbled up a container of that. Husband ordered the French onion soup which is some of the best he has ever had. It came layered with a thick layer of Gruyère and that is now his favorite way to eat French onion soup. He also got the Mont Blanc which was amazing - perhaps too big to be stacked on top of each other. He did comment it would be better if the components were separate - but he did enjoy that nonetheless. We got the chai ginger cider which was amazing - not much chai but wonderfully spiced cider. Also got macarons to go which I'm so excited to try.

All four sandwiches were really tasty from the bottom tier, the middle tier was probably my least favorite, the top tier had all the sweet treats. They also offer a children's tea service which had a lot of great options. The tea was fantastic (we ordered the Darling Darjeeling), but I wish we could have gotten one tea pot per adult instead of sharing one with the tea service. My daughter loved her apple and honey tea. Everyone who worked there was very friendly and they offered hot water refills more than once which was nice. The tea room was chic and very clean. Location was a little hard to find. Waze and Google Maps took me to the back parking lot, but the signage was on the street side of the building.

They have a beautiful garden out front and they harvest the herbs and produce they grow there for their menu items. We got to try two recommended teas, the Darling Darjeeling and Moonlight Juhi. Both were delightful and full-bodied with the subtle florals complimenting each of the teas. I really enjoyed all the sandwiches and sweets that came as part of the tea set. The staff were welcoming and very knowledgeable as they described each of the food as well as the teas to us. I highly recommend coming here if you're looking to spend a lovely time celebrating something special!

The mango flavor was kind of subtle, but the drink still had good flavor. The service was good, the baristas were kind and gave some good drink recs and the ambiance was nice! It's not a very big place, so there's limited seating but it is very clean and there's a small claw machine and some cute trinkets they sell at the front that kids would like! I've been to quite a few boba places in the Portland area and I think this price point is pretty average and worth a trip if you're in the area! I do think there are better boba places closer to Portland downtown but I think Monster Tea is the best I've tried so far in the Lake Oswego area! I'll definitely be back to try other flavors

I ordered three different savory kolaches, and being from Texas I was wondering if they'd hold up. The OG is almost exactly the same, it's got a slightly different texture and the breading is less flaky than what I usually get at home, but it's still very good. The Bacon Me Happy was also super good, it's not like the usual savory kolaches back home but it was very tasty. The Happy Bird uses turkey sausage, which is good for anyone who wants less red meat in their diet, and I liked the cheese a lot. One more difference between these and the ones back home is these are less rectangular, which I think is closer to the original recipe than the ones I'm used to having.

There is a great exterior patio area and the service is delightful. I honestly had never heard of a kolache before I visited this facility. I can honestly say that it's a unique but delicious pastry that comes with your choice of filling at this shop. I went with the OG and was definitely not disappointed. I was able to chat with the owner while I waited for my food and had a very lovely interaction. In general, the atmosphere is very friendly and seemed like a very family friendly environment. Definitely check it out if you want to have some quality service while trying a pastry you've probably never heard of... all at an affordable price and in a vintage style restaurant.

As the name sake dish, the St. Honore is a menagerie of deliciousness. It's almost like having a few desserts in one w the flaky bottom layer filled with cream and above the 3 caramelized cream puffs nestled in pillows of whip. Oh and that whip...you gotta have it w the chouquettes. W the lightly sweetened, lovely soft bite of a shell, it's the best vehicle to dip the whip. Usually my fave is the St. H out of these 3 but today the caramel on the cream puffs was a bit too thick and hard to eat vs the thin delicate layer i'm used to. Hopefully this was a fluke and I'll def have to research this more w another visit. Lol. Swung by on a weekday late morning. Waited a lil to order but was greeted warmly when staff arrived.
