I consistently have absolutely stellar service here, no matter which barista I have they are always friendly and efficient. The coffees are always flavorful and well made, and the lotus drinks are also delicious. I love the order ahead system particularly for the breakfast sandwiches. This is definitely my favorite coffee shop, the fact that it's locally owned and a small business is a huge bonus! read more

First time here. Ordered the Mexican Mocha (iced with oat milk) and iced house coffee. Mexican Mocha had cinnamon and nutmeg, pretty tasty. Didn't really like the iced coffee, it was a little watered down and needed more flavor. Service was good.

Cute coffee stop located along Beaverton Hillsdale Highway. A little hard to get to if you're heading towards downtown Portland, but not bad. I'm a drip coffee fan but their seasonal drinks sounded good and the names were adorable. The baked good selection was pretty standard: muffins, bagels, cups of oats. Prices were reasonable. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. read more

Slowbomb is THE bomb. My family and I have been staying nearby for vacation, and before we made the daily trek from the bus stop to the top of a neighborhood hill, we'd stop at Slowbomb for an afternoon pick-me-up while my toddler slept in her stroller. My wife and I are addicted to the frappes (I can't get enough of the mint-chocolate chip with oat milk and non-dairy whip); my seven-year-old loves the bagel sandwiches. The shady backyard patio vibe on the side of the road is dope. Using text to order instead of an app is dope. Even the wiggly balloon dancer is dope (my toddler can't get enough of it!) This is a place where I truly feel welcomed, and the overall vibe I get is that of the rebellious weirdo with a heart of gold, not unlike Portland themself. read more

So happy to find and try this place! I ordered: -2 bagel breakfast sandwiches -Mexican Mocha less sweet -Seasonal muffin -The breakfast sandwiches were made fresh with real cheese! (I hate American "cheese") I got the onion seed bagel and it was really good, fluffy but chewy just like it should be. -Ive been craving a Mexican Mocha/Latte/anything and this did not disappoint! Heavenly at first sip. I trusted them with the sweetness level and she nailed that too. -Pumpkin Streusel is the seasonal right now and it was quite good. Not dry, not overly sweet, and just great flavor all around. Overall I had such a great experience here! They were extremely kind and friendly, they have a large, unique menu (I was tempted to order several drinks at once lol) and wonderful tasting food and coffee to deal the deal. The perfect "little coffee shop" experience and I will definitely be back. Next time I want to snag a tumbler! They're larger metal ones, not the typical small ones which I appreciate since I use them for more than just coffee. Go check them out, you won't be disappointed! read more

Before this was a green coffee hut. Wanted to try the green place but hated it so I was skeptical about coming to this one. I thought since oh it's red now it might be a different owner. So I went by with no line or wait. Nice big menu and bright colors. I normally get a Carmel frap or blended drink from Dutch so I come here and I saw it on the menu. I asked the really pretty girl if it tasted good and she gave me all of the honest things about her coffee and we had a nice convo. She was very helpful and sooo nice! I got a Carmel coffee frap with coconut milk and the drink tasted perfect! It did not taste weird with the different milk. Great drink, great friendly owner!! Definitely recommend read more

I have had the pleasure of now experiencing "Slow Bomb Coffee" and I must say it has been exceptional. Portland obviously has many choices when it comes to coffee options but Slow Bomb Coffee is one of the very best. The things I find outstanding about this local and very Portland Coffee experience is the menu which provides a large variety of choices. The coffee itself is fantastic and I couldn't be happier both with their options but the taste as well. The service I have found is also amazing because there is a definite person who works and owns this business who possesses a sincere interest in providing the very best service to her customers. It is wonderful to experience a small yet growing local business that has such a wonderful spin to its coffee and its service. I will be a frequent customer. read more

This is my new favorite coffee stand! Here are a few of the things I like about Slowbomb: *You can text ahead your order so it's waiting for you when you arrive. *They have really fun seasonal drinks. *Higher quality syrups and sauces (from what I can taste) than other places. *Chocolate covered espresso beans are offered with your drink. I never say no! *They have food! Bagels, muffins, granola bars, oatmeal, etc. *They are generous with giving treats to my pup who absolutely adores the baristas. *Not only is the service great, but this is a small business, locally owned. I love knowing I'm supporting a young woman who owns her own business! *I'm a sucker for a rewards program- they have a punch card for buy 10, get 1 free. read more

Also I will say this: Pip's offers a free birthday dozen, which is incredibly generous gift. My birthday falls around the holidays so I usually can't make it in, but I want to be clear that I have absolutely zero complaints about that. Adults, especially, should never grumble about not receiving a generous freebie. The fact that they offer it at all speaks volumes about the kind of business they are!

Portland trip pt II featuring Pip's…read more Boyfriend and I visited Pip's before our flight back to LA. We've had pretty much every popular sugary and carby donut that Portland has to offer. A friend of mine recommended Pip's for their bite sized donuts and chai. We came at a right time by waking up early enough to beat the crowd. Service was pretty solid here and the menu is easy to read. Upon seating, they made a whoopsie by giving me a heated chai, but I can overlook that since they gave us an extra donut :) We got brownie butter, cinnamon sugar, and raw honey + salt to share. I got the King and I (made dirty) for my own because I love pandan. They put a lot of care into their product and it definitely shows. Chai was spectacular and donuts were delicious. I'm returning!

Extremely sad that this pie slice was so very bland. - strawberry shortcake: loved all the whipped cream. The pie crust was kind of weird with it. - chocolate peanut butter: not bad. Very rich. - smores: my favorite! I love the toasted marshmallow topping. The service was super friendly! The packaging was weird... just chocolate sticky smears all over the outside of the box... and not even a bag to at least stop from getting your car sticky from the mess.

Just the tip of the iceberg...

He did a good job at explaining the difference between their matcha powders. It's also very neat getting to see the matcha being milled at the bar. I had to take a couple of tin cans home. This is hands down top 5 matcha places - this is coming from someone in the Bay Area that has tonssss of great matcha shops. Definitely recommend over project matcha - when I asked how many grams of matcha project matcha used in their mates the cashier didn't now ‍

Amazing matcha every time! Very kind people. I can't wait to see the future of their business and…read moreproducing PNW origin matcha!!
