    Flux Caffeinator
    Karl A.

    You could walk right by Broken Robot and totally miss it. Your life would be incomplete if you made that mistake. It is not big, but it more than makes up for it with great coffee and great food! I tried a drip coffee (Flux Caffeinator) it was smooth and flavorful. The breakfast sandwich was delicious too. It doesn't come out quick, but it's worth the wait. The English muffin was one of the best I've had. The egg was made well and the cheese was nice and creamy. Great service, great coffee, great food, and a great location! This was so amazing!

    10/10 coffee shop. I feel so lucky to live close to this shop, but even if you don't you must stop by.... The shop is small and clean, run by a duo of really kind women who I love chatting with. Their espresso roast is Colombian (my personal favorite) and DELICIOUS. They're syrups are mostly Monin brand and every drink I get tastes phenomenal. Every damn time they NAIL it. Not to mention they have the best prices of any shop I've visited thus far in Portland area. But I would shop here even if it was more expensive, because they are that good. So much good to say, & only moved to the neighborhood a month ago. Will be a long time customer!

    Cute little coffee shop with amazing chai! It's spicy, flavorful and delicious. You can really tell the drinks are crafted with care. I would recommend this spot to anybody! Thanks broke robot coffee!

    The pastries at this place are ridiculously good. The Nutella roll especially slaps. Lisa, the owner, works so hard and it's a family labor of love. I think they even roast the coffee. This coffee shop is the essence of community. Two blocks from Dutchies on Holgate...nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

    We all got chai. The nice women who were working there warned us that the chai is a little spicy. Was def more seasoned than any other chai I've had. Very delicious, very worth it

    Asiago pastry and maple-covered croissant-esque pastry.

    The vibe: In town on a gig and swung by for a pick-me-up based off of reviews. It doesn't look like they do sandwiches anymore, or at least they don't have a sandwich menu available and I was too shy to ask. They do have bagels and an assortment of pastries that the barista walked me through so I could get one sweet and one savory. She seemed really kind and spoke to the customers ahead of me with a level of familiarity--following up with them about travel plans, and the customers asking her for life updates--made me wish I had a regular place to go like this where I live! The order: **Savory asiago pastry with rosemary--honestly so good. I'm more of a breakfast sandwich guy but this really hit the spot. Heated it up back at home and it instantly became a crispy, buttery delight. **Sweet croissant-esque layered pastry with brown sugar in the middle and topped with a maple glaze and cute sprinkles. I. Did not think I would love this as much as I did. It's like all the best parts of a doughnut and a croissant rolled into one and it is divine. I will say this felt very sweet to me, not cloying, but depending on the bite leaned more toward dessert than breakfast pastry for me personally! **Dirty oatmilk chai. Spicy. Milky. A taste of honey(?). Delicious. Usually when I order a chai, even when asked if I want sweet or spiced, they end up being a bit too sweet for me. This. This is a spiced chai. Didn't get to see the barista make it so not sure if it's a pre-made or house-made blend, but it's fantastic. I believe she pulled three shots for the dirty part of the latte, which is fine for me but might surprise some folks accustomed to the typical two. The ONLY downside: The only critical thing I can think of is the wait time. I had a break and wasn't in a rush to get out of there, but I imagine if I went there on a lunch break or a 15min break it might be a tad slow for me to feel comfortable. HOWEVER. It was one person running the joint, she was incredibly kind and provided the people in front of me with pastry options (and then did the same with me), and the upside is she seems really connected to her customers, which is pretty special I think. If you're looking for a quick in and out coffee experience I'm not sure this is it, but I bet you could find a Dutch Bros nearby.

    One of my favorite coffee shops in town. Prices are very cheap and the coffee is delicious. They have outside seating on the side of the shop. Staff is very friendly and can help with your preferred taste in coffee.

    Street view - great lighting!

    Home to the spiciest Chai in all of Portland. Try it with oat milk and sweetened with honey. Next time I'm going to get a vegan hand pie.

No one welcomed us when we came in. They had some pastries left, seasonal drink menu and some cool expreso tumblers. I picked up a tumbler for a birthday gift. $35 When it was my turn to order I asked which was the person taking my order, what favorite seasonal drink they enjoyed. They Just deadgazed at me and said "well I have had the sticky toffee" so I was like okay, I'll try that. I also got the chocolate and pistachio scone. Scones are hard... I am picky. It was only okay. My coffee was crap. I didn't even finish it. No flavor, all milk... lukewarm warm. The two star is for the conversation behind the counter after I placed my order As they were making my drink, the one making the drink was like "i had someone ask me what scone was the best, psst, i don't know just pick one" and the other person whom I had placed my order with was like "i know, why do they ask. Just order" First of all. I generally just drink black coffee and when I decide to spend money on a gift, two scone and a coffee that is supposed to be seasonal and yummy, I want something that is just that! Yummy and memorable and not feel like I was an inconvenience to someone who worked there.
