Tried Pink Spoon in Forest Grove and honestly--yeah, I'd take it over Menchie's…read more The froyo tastes fresher, the toppings feel higher quality, and everything just has a more local, less "chain store" vibe. It's self-serve, but it doesn't feel chaotic or watered down like some bigger frozen yogurt spots can. Prices aren't crazy, and the place is clean with a solid community feel. If you're comparing it to Menchie's, this one just feels more real and a little more worth it overall.

Great service, great shake -- we'll be back.

After living here in Beaverton for 8 years we have never been to this icecream shop. Newly…read moreremodeled after a car crashed through the window last year and all the news stories we wanted to support them and give it a try. They make fresh waffle cones and bowls!! The shop smells heavenly when you walk in and that enticed the 3 of us to each order a waffle bowl for our yummy ice-cream. I was excited to see they have so many great flavors and they carry my favorite peanut butter and chocolate. My son ordered Huckleberry heaven and hubby had the cherry Bordeaux. The gentleman behind the counter was not super friendly or welcoming. Maybe he was annoyed because we all ordered waffle bowls that he was making anyway.

We have driven past this spot for years and always meant to stop in; we are so glad we finally did…read morenow that they have officially reopened! It was heartbreaking to see them closed for nearly a year following the crash that kept their doors shut, but the shop looks great and the community is lucky to have them back. The menu is packed with choices, and there are so many ice cream flavors to choose from. I went with the Bordeaux Cherry in a fresh, house-made waffle bowl, and it was a delectable treat. The staff behind the counter were not only friendly but also very funny, which made the experience even better. There is plenty of seating both inside and out for enjoying your dessert. It is such a welcoming environment, and we are so happy to see this Hillsboro staple back in action!

I've been a huge fan of the original location for a couple of years. Not only are they delicious, but their wrappers are beautiful too! I gave these away for Christmas gifts one year and it was a real hit. I had the opportunity to chat with the passionate owner, Hamoody. He's incredibly personable and told me about what the new location has in store. They have a soft opening right now (grand opening planned for the end of March 2025!), and it's even better than the other location. They'll be offering ice cream in addition to their chocolates. What really caught my eye, is the sign that said they have the viral Dubai chocolate.I even went to Dubai at the end of last year and couldn't find it! Hamoody told me they'll be creating a special fruit Dubai chocolate parfait-type dish. While it's not available just yet, I was assured it will be available soon.

I was informed that I could cancel the reservation, with refund, if the change of location was inconvenient. It was, as I was treating my mother (who is 90!) and Hillsboro was too distant and too long of a day for her. I have been reaching out for the past 3 months, attempting to receive a refund, with no result. I contacted the Better Business Bureau for assistance, and they too received no response to their inquiries on my behalf. I feel it is important to share my experience, in case there are others who can benefit from it.

This is an experience I would recommend! My wife and I had never been to any kind of fancy tea…read moreplace but we saw that Portland had a couple of them and some would do the High Tea experience, which includes trying various tea and having a light lunch. My wife had just had her birthday and wanted to see the High Tea experience firsthand. And even better, they had tasting rooms in Beaverton and Hillsboro so we could stay local. We chose the Hillsboro location in the nice block of downtown they have. You have to make a reservation so we did. It wasn't a huge room but all tables were full on an early Saturday afternoon. They sat you at a table with mugs and fine china for a little tea party. The menu was laid out ahead of time and then you could pick the teas to have. I enjoyed them- I am not an expert but I tried a couple and liked the variety. They gave us instructions on when to drink and even a timer for when we should pour. Then the food came out- first a small bowl of broccoli cheddar soup, which was good, then the pastry and sandwich tray. I did get a picture of that. The High Tea experience is listed as "a light meal of scones, pastries, assorted treats, and finger sandwiches." That is what we got. The scones were good and about what you would expect from a nice local bakery. There were some small hors d'oeuvres like a mini quiche with bacon and cheese and then a small pastry with tomato and olive, very tasty. The finger sandwiches for that day were cucumber and cream (a British staple I am told), red pepper and hummus, and then turkey lunchmeat with goat cheese and a cranberry spread- that was my favorite. They also gave a couple treats for the last part, a macaroon and a cupcake, and then a shot glass filled with whipped cream and a strawberry jello/jam type thing. All very good, and not too much to be overwhelming. Overall, it was a delightful experience. We were happy to give it a try. The only drawback I have is that it cost about $65 per person, which I felt a little steep considering what we got. Again all the food was very good and it is meant to be a light lunch, but the portions were all so small that I don't quite feel like it added up... I could just go to a local bakery and get a variety of things with more substance, for less money. We did get to try several teas so that is part of the experience.

They have coolers at the counter and you can order tamales. I got chicken. Little hung up how to say 12 in Spanish. All the very little i do know left me in the spot. Not ashamed i used my fingers I will update once i taste it. Update: Pastries are amazing. I sat in my car and at halves w my coffee. I popped a tamale because they smelled so good. I have not had one wrapped in banana before. I feel like it keeps the moisture better, though i did feel the masa was too soft. I needed a fork and thats is not something i am use to.
