    I have wanted to go here for a long time for the breakfast and also they're one of the only places on Alberta that actually has smoothies. My only complaint is that I wish they would stay open longer cuz man I would love to have smoothies from these folks specially later on in the day. Especially in the evening. I'm just not a morning person. For The times they are Open you are in for a treat because they also have this new store next to it that's open that is an antique store and it's really amazing too I still haven't got around to going into it but that's only because I'm moving out of the country soon. The inside of the store seriously is like Harry Potter or probably more British ask I think and so it's just a really cool place to be. We came in right at the cusp of closing and they had absolutely no problem taking our order and we're really cool about it. And my order was literally made in less than a few minutes so wow they are really quick too! They have wonderful outside seating as well they also have the outside heaters too. If you'd like to smoke a cigar with your morning coffee they have ashtrays. It seems like they really do care about all customers so I really would go ahead and give this place a try if you haven't yet. It's like one of those Little gems that you really need to go to that is the brilliance of the Alberta arts district. I can't wait to go there again and see what else they have. They also serve coffee as well from what I understand and some special coffee drinks I haven't tried them yet but I plan too soon.

    If I could give extra stars, I would. This place has amazing coffee and ambiance! Staff are gracious, make excellent drinks, and a delight to talk with. Didn't get to stay long, but the Sunday band sounded great! Wish I was closer as I'd be here every day. Definitely a Portland gem!

    Located in the Alberta Arts District in Portland, we randomly found this place on the map. Eclectic, chill vibe. Great place for coffee and bagels to start the day or hang out with friends. Friendly staff and artsy decorations.

    I was looking for a cozy coffee shop while in the area during my work day to do some work in for a bit. This was it! Very cute and cozy, I found a comfy chair in the sun and enjoyed my iced coffee. Felt very welcoming to all people, and kid-friendly. I will return!
