Located right inside the entrance to the building with minimalist signage on the sidewalk. Super lovely and small cafe space with a couple bar seats and stools. There's options of to-go cups or having your drink there. The barista was the only one working and was very kind! I got an iced hojicha latte and the hojicha tea flavor tied so well with the espresso! It was so rich and smooth. read more

Cute little spot that we found. Small menu but the drink I had was good. Would love to go back and try their house special. read more

Walking around downtown and saw this cafe and decided to check it out. It was a small space but it looked clean and modern. I got the espresso tonic and my gf got the ice chai latte. Both drinks were very good. I've had a few espresso tonics in the past but this one was so good and surprisingly refreshing as well. The barista was nice and took the time to show us the brand of the chai base. Definitely gotta give this place a try. read more

First of all, not tiramisu latte here. You can get the einspanner latte which was similar. The barista was a little mean about me asking as if everyone asks her all day every day and she has to say no go walk two blocks south. How was I supposed to know?? Anyways, the shot is tucked inside a hotel lobby. There is room for maybe 5 people to sit. Not an ideal sit and catch up with a friend spot. It's also pretty cold being that it's next to the doors. Also it's pretty overpriced. read more

Less and more coffee ii - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I really wanted to experience the coffee scene in Portland and this was highly suggested! I got the Enjoyme latte and if I remember correctly, it's a latte inspired by a traditional korean dessert called injeolmi. The bitterness of the latte was complimented by the injeolmi! It's a different take on coffee and I liked it a lot. Service was nice! He was helpful and suggested what was popular among people. It's a tiny cafe as a heads up! It's quiet, cute and nice to stop by quickly for some good quality coffee! I will definitely be back next time! read more

Less and more coffee ii - Enjoyme Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This is a super small coffee shop located inside a building. I got the Korean inspired drink, Enjoyme latte, which is a play on injoelmi and it was so good. Very creamy with a subtle nutty taste. Their menu isn't extensive, but they do have some fun signature drinks. Kind of wish I went back to try more. There was only one person working when I went, but there was barely a line. Limited seating available so it's more of a grab and go spot. Highly recommend if you're near downtown area! read more

Amazing Asian-inspired coffee shop that is on par with those in LA! I visited this coffee shop on an Early Memorial Day Monday. The café actually opened earlier than expected. On the hours on their window, it said they opened at 10am, but I was able to visit around 8:30am. Walking-in, the coffee shop seemed to be located in a little corner of a bigger building and it was open with no door. It was aesthetic with the modern and simple designs with a couple of seats. I ordered the Cloud Custard Mocha and it was delicious. It was creamy, not too sweet, and had the perfect amount of espresso flavor. The custard cream itself was light and yummy tasting. Mixed with the espresso, it was very good. I would recommend this coffee shop to anyone visiting the Downtown Portland area and I would love to try their other unique drinks one day. read more

Did a quick run to Less and more coffee while waiting for sandwiches at Fried Egg I'm in Love and it was the smartest decision! We tried the cloud cream coffee and the ssuk latte and were so thrilled with our choices. The cloud cream is the most decadent cup of coffee I've had, such a pleasant sweet cream on a great serving of black coffee. The ssuk was unlike anything I've tried before, almost a little bit savory. I would happily drink either one on any given day. The minimalistic esthetic in the cafe is pleasing, and staff were super accommodating in answering questions and making recommendations. read more

They have a brick and mortar now! A few blocks from their stand shop. Menu is a bit different but still has creative and delicious drinks. We got the hot Custard Latte and iced Custard Mocha. Both were rich and smooth. A perfect pick-me-up. Small shop but super modern and chill. Will definitely be back! read more

Less and more coffee ii - Cloud Custard Mocha Iced Only - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

In support of AAPI heritage month, I wanted to check out an Asian-owned cafe, so when I found Less and More Coffee ii (L&M2) located right across from my hotel in downtown Portland, I naturally had to stop by. The owner himself, Ryan Jie Jiang, was at the helm of the cafe preparing pour-overs. Notes: ~ Cafe situated inside lobby of a building on SW 6th Ave and SW Yamhill St (steps away from Pioneer Courthouse Square) ~ Hours of operation: Monday - Friday from 7:30 AM - 3:00 PM and Saturday - Sunday from 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM ~ Beans used to be roasted by Joe (Wenboe) Yang before he moved to Seattle ~ Only menu available was a laminated sheet on the counter which means you have to wait until you get to the front counter (should consider having a menu on the top back wall) ~ Mochi donuts sourced from HeyDay Doughnuts (they no longer have a brick and mortar store, but still do pop-ups from every so often) ~ Place looks like it could comfortably seat about 14 people ~ Love that they offered non-coffee drinks for those who aren't fans of coffee ~ Alternative milk options are only oat and soy. Subbing out the regular milk for one of these is an extra $1.00 ~ Loyalty program offered which is great for regulars Food/Drinks: * Hojicha Latte ($7.25) - love hojicha (Japanese roasted green tea) and this L&M2 latte comes with a double shot espresso! I usually like to adjust the sweetness level of my drinks, but glad I didn't as the agave balanced the coffee and hojicha flavors. I did ask for oat milk though. It would have been nice if the hojicha came through more, but coffee is stronger than tea. * Ssuk Latte ($6.50) - Nice to see mugwort offered here! It is a Korean leafy herb that is usually harvested in late March and April to obtain the best flavor as foraging it later almost guarantees a bitter flavor. I convinced my partner to try ssuk since he's never heard of it before. For this L&M2 drink, ssuk has been grounded into powder form and he chose oat milk. Very earthy and herbaceous. * Baked Black Sesame Mochi Donut ($3.50) - my partner and I are very partial to black sesame, so when we laid our eyes on this while waiting in line, I knew we had to get one to try. One bite into this donut left us impressed with the texture. The baker of these donuts added more rice flour which made it more mochi-like. We've had mochi donuts before, but the texture was never as chewy as we would like. HeyDay did a great job capturing the texture. If we didn't already have lunch plans right after, I would have bought the baked ube donut. The popular drinks are certainly the Cloud Custard Coffee and Pour-overs. This is a coffee shop I see myself visiting again next time I'm in downtown Portland. I'm also looking forward to checking out the menu offerings from their first location - a kiosk that's only a couple of blocks from this indoor cafe. read more

I had to write a review to commend the female barista working on Black Friday. I stopped by this location approximately an hour prior to closing and saw a fairly long line. Surprisingly, there was only one employee and she was furiously working her butt off. Taking orders, pulling orders, running back to the register just to do it all over again. I know how stressful this can feel, but she was very kind and pleasant to all customers. Stopped by the other location the following day and saw that she was working again. Coffee was good, which is why I returned, but the employers should be happy to know they've got a good one. read more

OMG their Injeolmi latte was the BEST latte I've ever had. I love the taste of the familiar traditional, Korean drink with some caffeine - it was a great start to the day! The Location can be easy to miss, but it is tucked into a corner through double doors. I loved the minimal space and design. There are a few seats, but also recommend getting it to go and walking around the city. The staff is very friendly and if you don't know what to get, they have the best recommendations read more

Less and more coffee ii - Enjoyme Latte and Matcha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I mistakenly went to Less and more ii instead of their other location. However, it was a pleasant surprise, as I had such a wonderful experience. This location is located inside of an office building. It's small, but efficient. It's very modern and chic with a few places to sit. I went during the morning rush, so it was a bit of a line; however, the baristas quickly prepared everyone's order. I opted to try a caramel mocha. They only offer one size coffee cups and prices are decent. My caramel mocha was delicious. It was crafted perfectly. You can tell this coffee shop has a passion for what they do. Each drink uniquely crafted and made to perfection. If you're in the area, be sure to check them out! There are two locations and the menus vary, but both locations are exceptional! read more

We tried the cloud cream coffee and the maple oat latte. Cloud cream was the real decadence here. It's good coffee and the cream on top leads to an interesting hot-and-cold, rich cream and dark coffee combo, basically the experience of those flavors combining leads to the end result which is "yeah that was a bit odd but I'd definitely get it again, because it was very good." The oat maple latte was excellently crafted and a bit more traditional, so to speak, but really - if the cloud cream looks at all interesting please try it. I've never had anything like it and it's a real standout. the guy behind the counter was really helpful with our confusion navigating the drink menu (mostly due to confusion on which L&M coffee location we ended up in) and we left with our drinks both quickly and happy. Would go again next time I'm in the area! read more

I was seriously disappointed by this coffee shop, especially after seeing it all over TikTok. When my boyfriend and I walked in, it looked really promising--they hand-whisk both the matcha and hojicha, which had me excited. But somehow, it still missed the mark. My matcha was a really light green, and I was expecting at least a deeper shade. On the bright side, I could still taste the matcha, probably because I ordered it sweetened with agave. Honestly, if I had gotten it with agave and vanilla, I don't think I would've tasted the matcha at all. I feel like they add way too much milk. I'd rather have a smaller cup with a better payoff, especially for $6.50. As for the hojicha, I think it needed to be stronger. It totally got overshadowed by the two shots of espresso. You definitely have to ask for it to be sweetened. I'm glad my boyfriend and I gave it a try, and I think we'd come back to try some of their other lattes. But if I do spend the money again, I'll definitely be asking for an extra shot. read more

This is their second location that's an actual store! It was nice to get out of the rain and have a dry place to sit to wait for my coffee. The menu is different though and didn't have their famous black sesame latte which I was SO sad about :( I tried their hojicha latte instead and it was pretty good! It wasn't too strong of a hojicha flavor but you could taste both hojicha and coffee flavors in it. I would definitely come again though to try their other flavors. I just wish the menu was the same read more

Came here 3 mornings in a row while staying in Downtown Portland. It wasn't ever too busy the times I stopped by between 10-11am so didn't need to wait long for my drinks. I tried the tiramisu latte, black sesame latte and matcha latte. All 3 were excellent. The tiramisu latte was my favorite - the tiramisu cream wasn't too sweet. The black sesame cream was not overpowering in black sesame flavor. There are some baked goods available if you come early. I liked the unique options on the menu, and would definitely come back when I'm in town. read more

I've been a huge fan of the Less and More kiosk, so when I heard that they had opened a store location, I had to go try. Located on 6th avenue, the shop is actually an open store that you encounter in the lobby of the building. Although spacious and with some seating, it isn't quite the study spot as the seating is small and more for chatting. Their menu is SLIGHTLY different than their kiosk menu, and they don't have any pastries (at least when I went). I decided to try their "Enjoyme" (a play on the Korean "injeolmi"--a Korean snack with roasted soybean powder) latte, and my boyfriend got their Cloud Cream Mocha. Both drinks were delicious. I love how creamy the top was, and it was lightly sweet, which only served to make the drink creamy (and not feeling like pure sugar). Each foam has its own character too, offering something slightly different, but nonetheless amazing. Super quick service and I would definitely recommend. (A big plus is that it's right next to Pioneer Square, so you can grab a quick coffee while in the area!) read more

Stopped by because they had good reviews, we are visiting Portland for the first time, walked in to this shop didn't get greeted, the barista was alone she looked irritated. Had her head down the whole time, didn't even look at us once when we asked about the menu. Very poor customer service. She seemed angry or annoyed. Directed us to the other location due to menu being limited here.. but again never looked at us once. read more

Took my friend to less & more for her first time and she really like this spot. I got the cloud custard mocha and it tasted as good as I remembered, my friend got the maple oat latte and ssuk latte. Ssuk latte was good, we had to give it some thoughts because we didnt really know to how to describe the flavor, its earthy slightly grainy slightly sweet with a hint of grass (?) all I know is mugwort is healthy for you haha. read more

I recent learned about Less and More through social media. The drinks looked so delicious that I made a point to stop by the next time I was downtown, and it was well worth the detour. The first time I tried the enjoy me latte, and on my second visit I opted for the tiramisu latte. Both were the perfect balance of sweet and rich, without being overpowering. I was so impressed by their house made cold foams. There are two small locations I know of, one indoors and one outdoors, and they are very close to each other. Both have great service but the menus are different so keep that in mind when choosing where to stop by. read more

The enjoyme latte is recommended if you want something nutty and not too sweet. The cloud cream coffee was okay. Expect to wait a bit for the drinks.

The only place in the U.S. I've been able to find ssuk latte and injeolmi latte! Ssuk is mugwort powder which is green in color and has a bitter taste on its own. Ssuk latte will have sugar and your choice of milk. You can add espresso for some caffeine. Enjoy me latte has injeolmi powder which is made out of soybeans. This latte already comes with espresso and topped with sweet foam. I highly recommend trying these Korean based drinks while you're around Portland and someone let me know if these drinks exist somewhere else in the U.S.!! read more

Always wanted to try this place and so since we were in the area, finally got a chance to. I believe this is the new location that is set up inside a building rather then the subway stop set up. Walked in around 2:30pm, it wasn't busy at all. It was just me, my friend and two other customers. The barista was very friendly. While we took our order, he had started making it and so we don't wait that long for them about 5 mins or so. Ended up ordering three drinks, Cloud Custard Mocha Iced, Ssuk Latte and Maple Oat Latte. Cloud Custard Mocha Iced - custard on top is a nice addition to the mocha (make sure to stir it in to incorporate) Ssuk Latte - mugwort is hard to describe but in my options it's similar to matcha but more on the minty side. Maple Oat Latte - I love a good latte, especially when it's lactose friendly and has some sweetness to it. You can taste the hint of maple in the latte. read more

Shout out to the guy who made my coffee and was so nice. I finally got to try the Cloud Custard Coffee and WOW is it delicious. I will admit that I saw it on TikTok and knew I had to give it a try but I wasn't ever in the neighborhood. Finally I can cross it off my list! My croissant was warm and buttery and I was blown away by how much I really enjoyed the fluffy nature of the cloud coffee. It's a small place so it's perfect for a quick stop in while you're near pioneer square. read more

I can't stop thinking about the Cloud Custard Coffee. I want it in my mouth, I want it on my body, I want to be best friends with it. Staff was great, setting was fine for a quick coffee.
