This time I grabbed a red bull (can - they offer them flavored too) and a white chocolate mocha. The gentleman who helped me at the window was super nice and very quick. We'll definitely come back to try some pastries and other drinks.

Over the weekend a friend brought over a cake from Blue Moon Bakery. I almost never get to eat…read moredessert because I am gluten and dairy free, so I was pretty excited to learn this was one cake I could eat! The cake was a coffee cake sort with blueberries. Oh my goodness it was so incredible! It was somehow dense but moist and light all at the same time, with the most satisfying texture... and the flavors! Just the perfect amount of sweetness, and I'm almost certain it had some good pinches of sea salt and cinnamon in it as well. On another impressive note, the cake wasn't crumbly at all, meaning all those delicious bites made it to my mouth:). 2026 #8

Walking in, we were immediately greeted by the smiling staff and there were already quite a few people working on their laptops in various corners of the coffee shop. Looks like a great place to work or study. I got the Black Forest Mocha and a cinnamon roll to share. My drink was not too sweet which I appreciated but it did feel less full than expected. They did warm up the cinnamon roll which was soft and delicious and I love that they source their pastries from surrounding small businesses like the gluten free Blue Moon Bakery! Smart partnership! My friend got her toddler daughter an Italian Soda and they gave her a kids whipped cream cup with confetti sprinkles which was super cute. She also found the hidden bear and got a sticker as well. I love when businesses make it fun for the kids. Bonus they had a local artist spotlight showcase which was so neat! I'll have to come back to try more drinks and food but could definitely see this shop as a great hangout spot to catch up with friends or get some work/study done. Come support this local business when you are in town or visit their other locations around!

This was my first time here. I am a VA client and frequent the clinic a block away from this…read morecoffee place. I have been looking for a decent breakfast/brunch place close by but so far no luck there. I am still recovering from renal failure so my mobility is severely limited. I travel mostly at the pleasure of the Veterans Transportation Service or Trimet Lyft. Today's Dr appointment finished up sooner than expected so I had some time to kill before the van returned to take me home. So I fired up my tablet and took a look on Yelp to see if there was anything of interest close by. Enter Insomnia Coffee. Lots of positive reviews. Right around the corner. So... off I go. I an a US Navy brownwater sailor. We drink coffee that tastes like coffee. No additives. None. Not even cream or (gasp) sugar. So when I told the barista [HA! The person who pours coffee into a cup] that i wanted a cup of coffee black I got this sort of deer in the headlights look. What? ...I'm sure she was thinking... no Madagascar cinnamon? no foaming goop? no stale crouton crumbs? no pumpkin pie spice? Ummmm seriously? People want their coffee to taste like pumpkin? Yikes. No Miss... just a cuppa Joe. Just like my first heart throb, Anna Mae Bullock....strong and black. And I have to say, insomnia delivered. Not a bad cup of coffee at all. Although I didn't really want to hang out there since it appeared that I had zero in common with anyone I saw there... hogging the comfortable looking chairs. So I had it in a paper cup, to go. Now I have a "thing" about drinking coffee from a large, ceramic mug.... I loathe tasting paper in my coffee and yes I can tell it's in a paper cup even blindfolded. but I digress. They did have a whole display area of decadent looking pastries and not the tiny, overpriced, bogus looking stuff you see at Starbucks. Not that i would ever go into a Starbucks even to use the rest room. They had several pies that made my mouth water and some gooey breakfast glazed things that would have seriously spiked my glucose. so I reluctantly passed. Perhaps next time :)

They are in an industrial area so I'm guessing a big chunk of their business comes from folks who work in that area. Lines can be long, mostly owing to these characters who love paying sky-high prices for a drink that tastes nothing like coffee. Me? I like mine black, no additives. If I wanted a frappe I'd go to Dairy Queen. Yes, I'm a Navy Vet and a coffee snob. if the person ahead of me in line wants more than a little cream in their coffee my head starts to hurt. More than five additives and have a defibrillator handy. Seating is limited and often not an option. You'll likely be sharing a bench with one or more afore-mentioned daisies sipping on some drink that took a half hour to concoct. I'd love it if they had a separate line and seating for normal folk who just want a coffee of the day. But it is what it is.

I have been dying to write this review because my experience contradicts most of these reviews and…read moreI am confused how it can be possible. The service was OK, but they asked for a tip before providing any. That's always off putting. Especially when I had to change out the coffee carafe to get my own cup of coffee. That said, the coffee was nothing special. It was cool to see the roasting facility through the glass in the dining area. Now let's talk about the breakfast. My husband had the eggs Benedict and it was OK. I ordered the West Coast Hash and eggs and it wasn't OK. My over medium eggs were microwave rubber. Moved like silly putty. The hash was 99% potatoes and microscopic squares of ham and chopped dried bacon. The meal was very unpleasant. The best part of the hash were the diced jalapeños. This place is a one and done for me.

We were greeted with a smile and an answer to any of our questions. You can tell they care about their customers.

I love this place! You'll be treated like family from the moment you enter…read more The vibe is cool! They have a fun wall that displays some cool trinkets and some board games available too. Be sure to check their specials board, there's always something delicious highlighted. My husband usually ends up ordering from there, this time it was chicken Pho, but he's had vermicelli bowls in the summer too. It changes seasonally and with the weather. My daughter and I usually go for the lemongrass pork banh mi. It's large, the bread is crunchy on the outside but soft in the inside, and it's full of meat and veggies. They always check in to see how you're doing and genuinely want to have a conversation. Last time we were there they had a super stocked free pantry for the community during the Snap cuts. Incredible. They really work to be part of the community. Highly recommend stopping in for a sandwich and to experience the caring service yourself.

Cute place packed full of unique gifts...great Christmas gift potential: ornaments, jewelry, sweets, art. As for the chocolates, they've got a decent sized selection displayed near the back of the store. I needed 8 boxes for gifts, and not being a big lover of chocolates myself, I let the very sweet and helpful employee make the selections for me. They have a variety of box sizes based off of weight, and pretty good pricing in my opinion. Sweet place with great customer service! :)
