When we were returning from Portland, with a long drive ahead of us, stopped here for much needed…read morecoffee and breakfast and it was very worth the detour. I was very much in love with the Quinoa bowl which had so many elements adding up to a well made dish! The tempeh was marinated and had a great savory profile and the star was the sauce which binded everything together! I finished this meal in one go as it was soo good! The coffee and the scone were also very good! Would be great stop during future trips! The interior is a factory setting with hug ceiling and a fully glass wall overlooking the streets!

I totally appreciate this local spot with many homemade items (down to the almond milk!). They have…read moregluten-free and vegan baked goods and a nice selection of savory and sweet food items as well. The toast on the side of an egg dish felt homemade (or at least locally sourced). The service was friendly and they have a welcoming little space that doesn't feel too crowded and feels nice to linger in. BUT the thing I can't get past is the price. I thought maybe because they make many of their ingredients or because it could be organic or gluten-free or something that drives the cost up? But then I looked at other comparable places around town: also locally-owned and homemade-focused. CPR is still way more expensive! $7.50 for a 12-ounce mocha PLUS $1.25 to sub oat milk. That's $8.75 for a small drink. The most I can find alternative milk costing per drink is $0.75 in town. No matter how good your food is or how much you've put into it, I cannot justify spending $8.75 for a 12 ounce treat more than once or twice a year. I'm sorry I can't visit more often. :(

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.

I'm happy to report that it passed the road-trip test--and was genuinely the best avocado toast I've ever had.

Excellent food, great coffee and wonderfully kind service. I highly recommend stopping here!

Apparently Native Coffee is a fairly new company and they've opened a couple of stands in less than a year so they seem to be off to a good start. I visited about 10 days after they opened this location so I'm not sure if they usually have drink specials or not; it didn't seem like they had any today. Luckily it doesn't tend to matter to me since I don't drink coffee; I'm a chai or lemonade gal. Their chai was really good, and though I don't know for a fact it's not Oregon Chai brand, I'd be really surprised. The chai they have here is really subtle in flavor, whereas Oregon Chai is very very sweet. I was really pleased with this drink. The guy who took my order was super friendly and thanked me for stopping by. I usually don't buy pastries when stopping at a coffee trailer, but I'm glad I asked because they were really great. I hadn't heard of a lemon roll before but yummmmm. Definitely pick one up if they still have them when you stop by, and since they keep them in the fridge for freshness I'd definitely microwave them for 30 seconds or so (actually, warm them up even if you live it at room temp for a bit). Native Coffee is a great addition to the coffee options in Eugene, and worth a stop if you're in west Eugene.

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.

But the drinks are their specialty. I just got my regular chai but they had quite a few drinks that were coffee-free, like their smoothies, som soda-like drinks, and their hot chocolate of course. They also have items for "little beans" so it's nice they've got something besides just a steamer for the littlest ones. My drink was fine; they just sue Oregon Chai liquid concentrate so not their own or a special blend, but it was good. I'd like to try something that's more unique to them next time.

Nicely decorated inside but could use a larger sign on the building. Order at the counter. The matchas come with the homemade syrup of your choice. The Mexican mocha could have used a teeny bit more chocolate and cinnamon, in my opinion. Large selection of milk and milk alternatives. They were pretty quick with the drinks. The food took a little more time but not too long. They're making everything to order so it's not a spot to run in on a rushed lunch break. Burrito was solid with lots of great ingredients and your choice of breakfast meet (or tofu chorizo). The club had good ingredients and they even seasoned the tomatoes (!) but the bread was a little too crunchy (I'm not a fan of toast that cuts my mouth). I'll have to be back soon to try more things. Prices were very reasonable (dare I say good for even lunch prices). Very helpful and friendly staff. I also need to try their pastries! They were getting quite slim by the time I got there around 12:30.
