    I kept seeing Project Matcha all over TikTok, and so many locals recommended it too, so I had to check it out! The café has such a cool, calm vibe. The line was long (which I expected), but it moved surprisingly fast. The girls behind the bar were incredibly sweet and honestly made the experience unforgettable. We told them we were visiting from Orlando, and they went out of their way to share their favorite local spots with us. That kind of kindness really stood out. And of course, the matcha was a 10/10. Definitely worth the visit and I can't wait to go back again!

    Good quality matcha and unique flavor combinations. However, I don't think all matcha flavors are made equally and it really depends on what you get & what milk type. I would recommend dairy milk if you can handle it as it tastes much better than the non-dairy in my opinion. The inside is very aesthetic but not the best place to hang as it gets guys quickly.

    Iced matcha (unsweet) with whole milk (light ice)
    Kimmy S.

    Very average unfortunately. I had been waiting to try this spot for awhile and maybe I hyped it up too much in my head but the matcha itself was pretty underwhelming. I ordered an iced matcha (unsweetened) with whole milk. The staff was great, friendly, and knowledgeable and were super speedy. One employee makes your drink for you while the other checks you out at the register so it's a very efficient process despite how busy they always are.

    I go to Project Matcha all the time, I'm obsessed with their drinks. I'm not sure how I've never left a review for them before. They're always busy, and typically have a line out the door, but they work through the line relatively quickly, so I never feel like I'm waiting a super long time.

    I visited on a weekday afternoon with some friends. There was a small line. The interior is bright and airy with seating and tables. The vibes are reminiscent of ROK in Los Angeles. We tried a variety of drinks and they were all delicious. All of the advertised flavors came through. Honestly, I have no notes. The workers were also friendly and worked efficiently to get the long lines moving. I would definitely return if I'm ever in the area!

    This place is so cute, perfect for catching up with a friend or two. I wouldn't recommend taking a big group. There are tables inside and outside which is nice. The line was a decent length, but they moved quickly. I got the raspberry matcha and the raspberry was delicious. I am excited to go back and try the strawberry. The matcha was good but not the best I've had. I'd still go back here!

    Ube latte w matcha and matcha einspanner
    Grace C.

    Project Matcha is good, but I don't think I would wait in line for 45 min again. Portland is in her matcha craze, and Project Matcha is the popular girl in high school. With the recent opening of their second location, there is a Project Matcha no matter what side of the river you're on. Although this does not negate the lines! Despite being insanely busy, all the employees were extremely friendly and answered questions without annoyance. I got the ube latte with a shot of matcha and it was good! The ube was not too sweet and paired well with the matcha, which was strong and unsweetened. Prices are steep imo, but that is not surprising (in this economy?!). There are other matcha places I like better in Portland, but I was glad to have tried them! I would come back though, just not on a weekend.

    Double Matcha and Banana Cream Matcha
    Generous Y.

    Pretty good matcha in a solid spot, very convenient around many restaurants and shops. Not many comparisons for us in Portland, but we do have favorites in Seattle. Perfect for before or after a meal (or even just for a walk). We tried to stop by before lunch reservations and the line was insane, so we came back after eating and it cooled down. Milk substitutions are priced in, which is always nice for matcha. Line moves pretty smoothly. Some seating available, but taking drinks out to the street for a nice walk is fun too. Banana Cream Matcha - not our favorite banana matcha, but it's pretty good. Banana flavor was present yet not overwhelming of the matcha. Banana tends to be pretty strong so the ratio here is amazing. Matcha quality is high, whisked well and very smooth. Grassy undertones mixed with sweet banana make this a solid first impression. Double Matcha - for the matcha fanatics, this combines a matcha latte with a matcha cream top and both are delicious. The cream top is smooth, a bit thick, and extremely flavorful. Concentrated matcha in the small layer resting on top help wake the taste buds. Visiting project matcha for a double matcha just makes sense.

    honestly the best matcha i've had in portland as a tourist! love the girlies working here! they were so sweet and so quick with it like matcha was done right away literally as i'm paying!!! i got the banana matcha! banana flavor is fresh and light and still mixes well with the matcha the toffee bits adds some texture and sweetness -crunch with every slip decor inside is so cutesy too with the florals and designs

    Banana Cream Matcha
    Chantal T.

    Came on a Saturday afternoon with my friend and gf. Got lucky and beat the line but it did get crowded after. Workers were super nice and whisking as fast as they could. Matcha wasn't strong enough for my matcha expert friend but I got the banana cream matcha and really liked it! There's some seating inside.

    I was visiting my best friend in town, and she took me here because she knows how much I love matcha. Spoiler alert: I went here twice within the same weekend because that's how much I loved it. There was a very long line when we got there, but I felt like the line doesn't move too slowly. There's not a ton of seating here, so it's more of a grab-and-go kind of place. My best friend and I ended up getting multiple drinks and these were our favorites: -project matcha latte strawberry matcha latte -coconut matcha cloud They were all SO delicious. I ended up getting the coconut matcha cloud twice because the combination was so delicious and refreshing. The matcha quality here is really good. I wished I was visiting longer so that I could've tried more of their drinks! I highly recommend this place. The vibes were fantastic and staff were very friendly too.

    Einspanner matcha
    Mia M.

    I had the matcha einspanner with oat milk and it was quite nice. The cream on top gave it a nice texture. I only wish I would have requested some cinnamon powder on top. My daughter had the raspberry vanilla matcha latte with oat milk and she said she like have preferred it a bit more sweet. The line was fairly long when we entered on a midday Tuesday but they got through it pretty quickly.

    Project Matcha is a modern matcha shop in a cool space with a unique selection of drinks. To get here, street parking will be your best bet. Inside, they have a bright and nicely decorated interior with about 6-7 tables for seating. For their menu, they have different coffee, matcha, specialty, and signature drinks to choose from. Wifey and I opted to get the Banana Cream Hojicha and the Strawberry Shortcake Matcha. Both drinks were solid and all of the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

    I don't know if I "get" dirty sodas, but I did enjoy my beverage here. I stopped by after dinner…read moreand treated it kind of like a dessert - so I went with a really sweet combo of marshmallow flavor and marshmallow fluff in a coke. The young staff member was really friendly and gave me plenty of time to look at the menu and make my decision. They have a number of premade flavors, or you can make your own. I feel like you could spend years making every possible combination! The store is just off Killingsworth and Greeley. It's a cute little intersection with a couple of restaurants and stores. Parking is difficult on Killingsworth but head into the neighborhood and you'll find free spots. Inside is a little bigger than I expected, with a couple of tables.

    We were visiting from California and my daughter wanted to stop by here because she loves Italian…read moresodas and dirty sodas. What a cute spot and a safer looking area in Portland. The outside has 2 picnic bench tables. Inside is very spacious and clean. They have almost every creative flavor combo you can think of, and if you don't see something you like, you can custom your own combination! Such a fun place. I thought it would be too sweet but I ordered one, I forgot the name but it was AMAZING!!! Perfectly sweet and refreshing. Natalie was our barista if that's what you call her. But she was super sweet, very welcoming, easy to talk to. Super chatty but in the best way. It was fun to watch her make our drinks and she even told us we can add more pumps of certain flavors if we wanted. So that's not the best part. Best part is.. they're dog friendly!!! Yes, we were able to bring our fur babes inside and they even have pup cups!!

    I am obsessed with this team and this space. Portland, wake up! We have another amazing wine…read moremerchant with indoor seating for tasting. And, most of the team are incredible sommeliers with a few currently training to become master somms! What a resource for us! David and Marissa are very welcoming. From the moment we stepped into the space on Tuesday to participate in the blind tastings, they consistently taught us new information and led us perfectly through the journey of identifying wines. I also really enjoyed their energies, and Marissa matched our sass and zest for life very well. C&U normally have flights available at all hours when open, but, Tuesdays are special. Blind tastings are only hosted then, so, make your way down to learn something and to taste new wine. You can select either one red flight, one white flight, or both for a total of six wines to taste. We decided to do the six wines, so one red and one white blind flight. There are extensive resources to help you with this experience, and I would highly recommend water and snacks to balance the palette. Seating is not abundant, so, I would recommend arriving early if you want to guarantee a spot. I hope that they offer outdoor seating come summer. My only critique of this place would be that their hours could be longer or pushed to open later for more time in evenings for guests. 7pm closures are tough for most of us professionals. C&U also offers special events and courses to expand your experience. I will definitely be coming on Friday this week for the special German wine release that David told me about. Thank you, I cannot wait to come here often.

    Perfect wine shop!…read more Service - The service is extraordinary. The knowledge of the staff, which are trained somms, is unmatched at any shop we've been to. It is obvious that the people who work here have passion in spades for wine and sharing it with people. For anyone who is new to discovering wines of the world this makes your journey so much more fun. We've never gotten a bad recommendation from the staff because they listen to what you like and then push you a little outside your norm, if willing, to really expand your experience. Price - The prices are fair, this isn't Costco wine so don't expect $12 bottles to reign supreme but they are usually within a buck or two of other local wine shops with larger footprints. With that said though, there is a wide range of prices that should help any budget find quality wine. Atmosphere - The atmosphere is great. They keep it cool to protect the wines and it is reminiscent of walking into a very fancy wine cellar. They are large enough to not feel cramped but small enough to keep that intimate feel. Quality wine glasses and seating areas make it very pleasant to stay for a bit and enjoy the experience. Selection - Selection is wonderful, they don't have as many bottles as a Total Wine or the like, but everything in the shop is thoughtfully curated. I don't think I would hesitate to grab any bottle as it would be a good example of the wine in that region. They have wines from around the world, so it is like taking a trip around the globe where you can stop anywhere you like. Experience - The overall experience at Cru and Domaine is special, from the warm welcome of familiar faces to just sitting and popping open a bottle (no corkage fee for wine purchased in the shop) and enjoying it while chatting with the staff and hearing all about what makes that wine so excellent. They also have a nice selection of Coravin Pours (wines they tap using a Coravin System to keep them perfectly fresh). Some of these pours are pricey wines you can try by the ounce because you may not want to spring for the whole bottle. Summary/ TLDR - There is no single reason that keeps us going back time and again, it's all the reasons, and all the reasons added up make this a PDX gem and a special place to enjoy wine with friends.

    Food~One of my best girl friend (that's a big foodie like me recommended we do burger week) and, I!…read moreIt was new thing to me so I was super excited about the burger and, the experience. We both got the Blackberry Bramble Smash Burger (of course blackberry compote, goat cheese, and arugula). She thought It came with jalapeños but, It would totally make it even better but, it was still a delicious burger. We also got a small fry (3 people could share it). Service~It was a very nice guy off to the side taking orders (where you could order different beers on tap) Ambiance~It's located in a strip mall on Powell (lots of other food carts right in the middle of everything). Very relaxing (but, it was 2 bees that swear we had honey on us a little annoying but, it didn't stop us from enjoying our food and the outdoors). It's plenty of parking and seating. I spoke to few people and, had a decent conversation for a few minutes. It's still burger week until the 21s (check it out)! I love Pizza so now I know this is a thing I look forward to participating in other local events!

    This place is retro, shabby, comfy, and delightful. Here in the heart of the Oregon craft beer…read morescene, this place is the flagship of all things sold that come in a sealed container. Thousands of options here in one gigantic marketplace, and something for everyone! The marketplace itself is quite dated. Yet it is eclectic and quirky. It is welcoming and irrefutably very memorable. There is a dedicated area to serve beer on tap with a list of about 12 options and then there is a restaurant with a limited menu. Mostly things like burgers, sandwiches, and other common pub fair. There are vegetarian options available. When your order is ready, they use an overhead mic that is resemblance of something that you would hear over the loudspeaker at an 80s rollerskating rink. On site, there are bathrooms and areas for seating that include bar tops, high tops, and even a couple of comfy couches. There is an outdoor patio that is very inviting during the warmer months of the year. Ultimately, this is an incredibly impressive presentation of beverages. Perhaps even something that some people would consider a museum of sorts. Either way, there is definitely choices for everyone, and this is an establishment that can't be missed. Yes, you can visit the other location on Powell, but nothing will ever match up to the original location here in Multnomah village. An experience, a chance to shop and stockpile some beer, but truly a showcase of excellence in beer culture in the heart of our city.
