Great drip coffee! Service was friendly and quick. Also enjoyed the Moroccan latte on a prior visit.

cool vibe inside. ordered a tea and it literally came out in 5 seconds which is great because I was in a rush. baristas are super nice and service was great. cute spot to get work done too.

I really enjoy working from Ovation Coffee because it has a welcoming atmosphere, great coffee, and the perfect balance of energy and focus. As a local realtor, it's an ideal spot to bring my laptop, stay productive, and even connect with people in the community while getting work done.

Pumpkin Chocolate Scone + Moroccan Chai
Dana S.

Coffee shop featuring Moroccan-inspired drinks. Great location by the Fields Park. The shop has big windows that let in light and offer pleasant views. The barista that took my order was very friendly and helpful with my questions. I got a pumpkin chocolate scone and a Moroccan chai. Scone was good, crispy outside and fluffy inside. The Moroccan chai was cool - I think it was sprinkled with coarse sugar, which created a sort of crust on top of the foam, but the rest of the drink wasn't super sweet, and the spices were strong but smooth. This was a good choice for something a little different.

Moroccan ice coffee, blue raspberry nitro lemonade, croissant
Brittany H.

Baristas were helpful and sweet. Are order came out incredibly fast and was delicious. Their menu had coffee classic, but also fun, unique drinks too. We ordered two drinks and a croissant, all of that was only $12. There was a decent amount of inside seating, but it is a pretty small space. Across the street there is a really pretty park, which added ambiance and could serve as additional space on a good day

Tried this coffee place when I wanted to try something different. The coffee was a little different with the moroccan influence. They sprinkled cinnamon powder on top of my cappuccino. Although it didn't taste any different to be honest. The ambiance is pretty refreshing and chic. The service is very nice with friendly staff. Coffee was very average.

Marionberry Cheese Croissant and Spinach Feta Croissant

We had the spinach feta croissant and the marionberry cheese croissant. Both were perfection. The pistachio latte and Moroccan latte were both unique and delicious. Recommend doing half sweet on the latte if you like a mild sweetness.

my favorite coffee in Portland Oregon. I walked in as it was nearby to the gym I was going to. I wanted to try their coffee and save it for the next day. One sip and I was hot. Looking forward to coming here on another visit.

Cue little gem around the corner of pearl district. Lots of residents came here after morning workouts. You can see lots of furry friends coming In and out. Staffs are super nice. Coffee is a must try. Exotic Moroccan lattes gives an interesting twist to the flavor. Some spice reminds me of the Chinese 5 spices but not too strong. Some has dry onion in it? Got to experience it Biscuits and paninis are also great flavor with a reasonable price. Love the crispy sandwiches.

Lavender matcha latte
Sofia P.

Interesting twist on a matcha latte with their added spices, next time I'd try without the lavender because there are just so many flavors going on. Great service. It was pretty packed inside but also very quiet- seems like a great workspace.

I was in town for concert and I needed a local spot for coffee and a pastry the next morning. I was…read moreecstatic when I found this spot! I appreciate when a coffee spot or cafe has one or two GF items, but when the WHOLE CASE IS GF, that is heaven! I chatted it up with the staff about how incredible the Tame Impala show was the night before. I ordered my usual vanilla latte, and chose the cinnamon roll AND pistacio cheesecake. I was on 'vacation', don't judge. The cinnamon roll was gooey, full of spice, and loaded with frosting. It was so amazing. I could eat a few of these and be happy in a sugar coma. The pistachio cheesecake was creamy, but could have used a little more savory flavor to balance the sweet component. But, it was still delicious. My latte was perfectly balanced. Not too sweet, and the espresso roast was on point. I highly recommend coming in for a coffee and pastry even if you don't need to be gluten free, and if you do, come visit soon.

There is a wide variety of baked goods, as well as ready-to-bake items located in their cold case. Prices are in alignment with what one would expect to pay elsewhere, and the service is top notch. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and super fast. As the bakery is located on a super busy stretch of Broadway, expect street parking to be hit or miss. I've been pretty lucky finding spots in the vicinity when I visit on Saturday or Sunday mornings. Check this place out, I'm sure you'll love it!

The owner and his wife greeted us when we came in and we ordered an RBC and a Chicken Asiago which were delicious! We were so excited to eat that we forgot to take pictures! The owner was chatting with us and told us the Chicken Asiago is his best seller. He also gave us free samples of his award-winning Texas Chili and Jalapeno Popper Soup which were phenomenal (I immediately switched my side salad to the 50/50 chili and soup after trying it). He was so, so friendly and had an absolutely infectious passion for food! His food is gluten-free, seed-oil free, and sugar-free so it's a great option for people with celiac disease or other similar food sensitivities! He even gave us a sample of his healthy sugar alternative, Monk Fruit sweetener (which we regrettably forgot to take with us when we left). The food was amazing but the vibe and the hospitality was unmatched. Thank you for an amazing meal! Sorry again that we forgot the monk sweetener! -E&J

Stepping into it, it had great vibes with some trendy outdoor seating with heating and also some shielded indoor seating. You have to place the order with the cashier and hence there was a bit of a long line (also since online orders were also being served, it was impossible to gauge how long it would take for the line to clear up). Figuring out the menu proved difficult and hence I used yelp assistant which suggested a rice curry plate which came with 6 side dishes and rice and pappadam. Along with this, we ordered the stuffed rotis. The rice and curry plate had some similar flavors to south indian tamil cooking and all the flavors were interesting (especially that tangy mango chutney)! However, I felt that the food was over spiced and was really hot for my taste. We also tried their drinks and I felt it was seriously watered down. Overall, it was a cute spot and love the fact that they are fully vegetarian/vegan!

As a gluten-free girlie when you're craving donuts, you have to be ready to go on an adventure and…read moreto go on an adventure the prize has to be worth it. Let me tell you these are so worth it! I will start by saying these are not like a standard fluffy donut. Mochi style donuts are more like a thick old fashioned donut in the best way possible. Be ready to be full after one, or two. I love the variety of types of toppings and got half a dozen to try a few. Also loved seeing they fill the donuts to order, so less chance of a soggy center. Note: I had no soggy centers and it took 3 days to eat them all. Of them all, the horchata pudding was my favorite. The warm and creamy flavor worked so well with it. I will say the frosting and fillings were great alone but I wasn't huge on the brighter flavors (key lime, watermelonade) with the donut. Either way, I took care of my donut craving, got to see a different area of the city, and had a sugar rush for a few days.

Strawberry yuzu funfetti - anything with rainbow sprinkles is kiddo approved but this one is adult approved too! A little on the sweet side with the sprinkles in the donut too, but super fun! 5 stars Chocolate sunbutter - nice alternative to nut butters and mild chocolate flavor. Good chocolate donut all around. 5 stars Pool Boi - loved the creativity with the little gummy bear in the sour gummy ring and the blue raspberry flavor was on point! 5 stars. Passionfruit curd - fantastic tart curd with a classic mochi donut. Yum. 5 stars. Key lime pie - perfect tartness that worked well with the sweetness of everything. 5 stars. Cocoa pebbles - excellent chocolate donut! Could had used more cocoa pebbles. They need to have more chocolate specials! 5 stars. Horchata pudding - lovely cinnamony donut with a tasty horchata pudding. 5 stars. Ube - I wish the Ube flavor was in the donut too. Perhaps the Ube flavor could had been stronger in the glaze? 4.5 stars. Orange cardamom - subtle cardamom flavor but overall tasty donut. Not especially noteworthy flavor. 4.5 stars. Black sesame and jam - I usually love black sesame, but the combination with the jam was not my favorite. It's probably personal preference, but next time I'm going to ask for it without it. 4.5 stars. Strawberries and cream - compared to the strawberry yuzu, this one was a little underwhelming. Adding fresh strawberries with the cream would had been the way to go. 4.5 stars. Guava cheesecake - the Guava flavor was overpowered by the graham cracker flavor on this one. I think a straight Guava one would be amazing. 4 stars. Compared to pon de ring and more traditional mochi donuts, these had more donut characteristics and were much sweeter and less chewy. So glad we discovered this place!

When I arrived the staff person apologized because she was hit with numerous online orders the previous half hour. She was clearly struggling to keep up. After I got home I discovered she put cilantro on my order, which I requested be held off my Big Bowl. Outside the location there was a shirtless man shouting and making threatening gestures, obviously having a psychotic episode. Overall it was just a bad night to place an order at this location, with the worker - at no fault of her own - being overwhelmed which led to a mistake. In addition, there was a major safety issue with the man menacing people outside. So, for now I'm giving the Whole Bowl 2 stars, with the hope that owner ensures the safety of their patrons and staff, and provides more support for the latter - especially during the dinner rush.
