    Very cozy local coffee shop with warm whimsical atmosphere. Good coffee and pastries and wonderful services.

    A wonderful neighborhood coffee shop, exactly what we needed. The service is great, the drinks are excellent, and the baked goods are some of the best in Portland. Everything always fresh and delicious. They have a wonderful mix of sweet and savory baked goods. My only issue is the seating. Many times I've visited, people stay at tables with laptops for three to four hours, which makes it hard for others to find a spot to sit for even 30-40 minutes. On my last visit, the people who were there before me were still there when I left 45 minutes later. I really wish the shop would consider a one-hour limit or designate a few shorter-stay tables. I'd come much more often if I felt confident I could sit and enjoy my drink and treat, but the lack of turnover has kept me from stopping in.

    This was an excellent find! Delicious coffee, amazing food and wonderful staff. We shared a ham and cheese sandwich and a strawberry rhubarb hand pie. Both were absolutely delicious. Wish I lived closer but will find reasons to be in that area again just so I can go there!

    This is one of those neighborhood coffee shops in Portland that I always find myself coming back to. It's warm and inviting the moment you walk in, with that comforting wave of coffee aroma that makes the space feel instantly cozy. It's always busy, but in a way that feels lively rather than overwhelming. They're known for their quiche, but I usually end up ordering something sweet. This time I tried the coffee cake for the first time, and it was surprisingly delicious--light, not overly sweet, and perfect with a latte. I also had the marionberry and cream pastry again, which is one of my favorites. It's bright, slightly tart, creamy, and has that satisfying bit of crunch. The coffee here has low acidity, a smooth profile, and a medium body, which pairs beautifully with their pastries. Starting my morning with something this sweet and comforting just makes me happy.

    Charming local cafe with a very nice selection of fresh pastries. Coffees tasted more on the "mild" side for me. I needed something a bit punchier for the drive back to Seattle, but it was delicious nonetheless. Our quiche was the perfect portion size and so tasty! Not sure why we hadn't been to Keeper before but we'll be back! Service was excellent (the manager was so kind and helpful when I called in an error I made and tried to pay them online somehow), and the decor is cozy cute. Street parking wasn't too difficult, but I can see it being a challenge during morning hours.

    I love going to Keeper Coffee. They have two locations, but I usually visit the one in Milwaukie, although I really should give the other one a try. What makes this place stand out is the vibe. Everything is so cutely decorated, and the building they share with Pfriem Brewery gives it a unique and cozy feel. They have a large upstairs area, which I can see myself coming here with my laptop. The pastry selection is fantastic. If you have time to sit down for breakfast, I definitely recommend it. That is what I did on my first visit. On my second visit, I grabbed a pastry and a drink to go, wandered around, and stopped into some of the nearby vintage shops, which made for such a lovely afternoon.

    I was debating what to do on a Sunday afternoon and decided it was a coffee shop vibe kinda day. I consulted ChatGPT and yelp and landed here. 10/10 recommend! I ordered an americano and df/gf and both were really good. There is parking available on the street. I can see where peak times could be a little harder to snag. Service was great too!

    I ordered their iced latte with homemade syrup and liked it. 8/ 10. I will have to go back to try their pastries which looked really good.

    Pea flower latte.

    I love Keeper Coffee! The one off of Holgate is nearer to me than the larger storefront in Milwaukie, and cozy. My go-to treat is their iced lemon cake! You get a hefty, delicious slice for the price (tip is already included). They also make an amazing pea flower latte that is blue! Fun! And mine came with a unicorn drawn into the foam! Love the servers and the service.

    Menu and esthetic

    This has been a growing favorite of mine that I find myself visiting a few times each trip to Portland. It's cute with a classic 'old' vibe yet some modern twists ... vintage like if you will. Has both indoor and outdoor seating, WiFi and bathrooms for customers. They offer a wide selection of baked goods, including GF and Vegan friendly ones.. in fact the vegan flatbread is one of my favorite items! Typically, I'm making oat milk, cappuccino girl, but occasionally I'll get a latte and both of those made here are incredibly delicious. Staff is always so kind and supportive, heads up that the lines can be long here, but it's entirely worth it. I know I'll be back for more when I'm visiting again!

    Pastries!

    Friendly staff, great variety of pastries, breads, and a couple sandwiches options, We tried zucchini bread, chocolate croissant, bacon and egg sandwich, savory scone. All delectable. Set in a residential area. Not an abundance of seating but we got lucky to get a table for three right away. Drafty by door but it's February. Was bustling but not crowded. Ample staff with fun vibe. Can tell this is a local hot spot.

    This quaint coffee shop on the East side of Portland has a vintage feel and serves a good cup of coffee. I got a small iced mocha which had a great balance between being sweet and bold. All of the baristas were very kind and greeted me upon walking to the front to order. The inside has some seating and there are more tables outside for the nicer fall days like when I went. They also have a small corner filled with merchandise they sell in shop. Overall, I would recommend this shop if you are looking for something new and something local, it can be a great spot to sit down and get some work done.

    We visited Twisted Croissant to pick up some treats to tide us over on our drive back up to…read moreSeattle. Walking in less than an hour before closing, we were surprised to see most of the items still in stock! We ended up picking four things to try: Vanilla Bean Kouign Amann ($7) - This pasty has a sweet yet salty exterior that's complementary in flavor rather than clashing. It's accentuated with a crunchy glazed and caramelized sugar layer that's on the sweeter side. The interior is interesting. There's a cavernous gap right in the center that's filled with a sickly sweet melted sugar syrup. It's unpleasantly sweet and very cloying. The puffed and filled area is large enough that it compresses the other layers so the kouign amann is dense. I've never had a kouign amann quite this sweet before. (3/5) Meyer Lemon Olive Oil Cake with Thyme ($5.50) - This cake is so moist and rich, thick and dense, fatty and rich, that it feels like I"m eating a slab of butter. I'm sure it has just as many calories too! It's quite sweet, although not nearly to the level of the kouign amann. Overall, it's just a really rich and decadent cake. (4/5) Blueberry + Vanilla Cream Brioche Donut w/ Earl Grey ($6) - The top of the pastry is dressed with a cream that has an unmistakably strong bergomot earl grey taste. I wish there was way more cream - there's essentially only a dab on top! The rest of the donut is filled with a custardy light blueberry and vanilla jam. It's not too sweet and has an excellent high quality blueberry fragrance, creating an exceptionally strong blueberry taste. The jam is not too thick and is somewhat syrupy from sugar. The donut itself is really soft and extremely airy. It's the fluffiest donut I've eaten in a long time. (5/5) Raspberry Rose Cruffin ($8.50) - This pastry has some fun dehydrated raspberries sprinkled right on top of a light and fluffy cream that's not too sweet. The cruffin base is buttery in taste and great lamination even when filled with the custard and rose/raspberry cream. This is a heavy cruffin that's very filling. (5/5) Twisted Croissant certainly does some some really delectable treats. It's one of my favorite bakeries in Portland!

I'm not sure that I can justify spending $7 to $12 on a single pastry. This will have to be my special occasion bakery, I suppose. Additionally, I had a less than pleasant exchange with one of the employees. It kind of caught me off guard because that has never happened before. Maybe she was just having a rough day.

But let's talk about their quiche. We got the corn pepper quiche and it was one of the best quiche I have had in awhile. Similar in texture to quiche from Coyles in Seattle but the floor was so good. Pie crust is buttery without being greasy. We also had the tomato dill purse which my partner loved - dill forward but you could taste the used a farmers market tomato. Pie wise we got the ginger plum streusel, whiskey peach and Marionberry. All delicious but Marionberry was the standout. I wish they still have something with rhubarb but the season was already over when we went. We actually went back on our way home to Seattle and picked up the salted honey, tart cherry, and peach streusel. All good. Get there early for the best selection. First time we went at 8 am and no line but line formed after. The way back we went at 6 pm and the selection was slim.

I particularly recommend their chocolate, strawberry shortcake, and key lime pies. S'mores is also a solid choice. All of their pies have a great crust: flakey, thick, and excellent when dipped in coffee. I wasn't fond of the whiskey peach because it had a strong whiskey flavor, but this pie would be great for whiskey-lovers. Although the prices are pretty high, the pies are so good, and they are definitely worth trying! All of the workers are very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant has plenty of seating. It can be hard to find free parking nearby, so I recommend parking in an adjacent neighborhood if you can find a spot.

While I enjoyed the sandwich I tried, prices were definitely on the higher side. The space itself could have used a midday cleanup - they were quite a few crumbs on the floor and some chairs left out of place. I got the Get Him To The Greek half-sandwich, as well as a full sandwich of their special (forgetting the name now). I will definitely come back when I'm in the area and looking for lunch or when I spot them at a market!
