We decided to check this place out since we were searching for some good coffee and liked the idea of it also being a cannabis shop. We both got the French Toast Latte with Oatmilk, which was delicious. I got mine half as sweet, which made it more palatable for me. My spouse got his the regular style, but added CBD to aid in calming and reducing his anxiety. He said it was awesome and he loved the idea of combining the two products. The owner was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and it was a great atmosphere as well.

Breath of fresh air coffee shop and medical dispensary! Moving to Portland I didn’t dream I’d find a welcoming kind environment for my two loves. Each staff member was patient to the time to explain and made me feel seen. Some of the best flower in Portland! Along with the fact you can get a cbd iced tea or coffee. This spot is a diamond in the rough of wharf st

Awesome vibe and a really great selection of products. Bonus: it is one of the only places in downtown Portland where you can get a matcha latte. (Plus, it’s a really great matcha). The coffee is from a local roaster, Speckled Ax, which is one of the best roasters in the city. The location on Portland’s quaint cobblestone Old sport streets can’t be beat. We didn’t try any of the pastries but they all looked delish. You can tell a lot of thought and care goes into providing a quality product, both for food and drink. Alternative milks include oat, soy, and almond. Worth a visit!
