“ My first time here. So glad a friend recommended it for our meet up. It's a large space with multiple types of seating available; armchairs, booths, tables and chairs, a few stools at the bar. I had a breakfast sandwich, which was tasty enough, but pretty basic. I had some delicious rooibos tea. I will be back to try the coffee! ”
“ We are so grateful to see a small business help fill the void that Starbucks left in Sellwood! I met the owners because we were selling some restaurant equipment and I discovered an awesome new coffee spot with food, atmosphere and space located in a historic old building that my family used to live and work in the 1980's! Please help support this local gem and the family who has helped make it possible! ”
