She's so pretty and delicious, a true source of joy. Yet it's with a heavy heart that we announce, it's time to move on. We aren't quite sure what's next, but the equation here will not solve. It has been a GORGEOUS experiment at 5425 NE 30th. We built a team of incredible talent and passion. We came up with some products you’ve surely not seen the last of (I’m looking at you Frozen Custard), and we helped our community and friends have a spot to gather around some shared values. Instead of just moving to Europe, where cafe culture is alive and well, and people gather around small tables at all hours with friends and family, we tried bringing that spirit here instead. I think we more than succeeded, even as we retreat. We will see you further down the road, in some shape or form. We cannot thank you enough for your support these last couple of years, this last decade and a half.
This weekend will be our final bow here in the space we’ve lived in for exactly 15 years. Until we meet again, come say goodbye to all that we've done here, and raise a glass to the staff and your fellow Portland food community.

Hours of operation this week are: Thursday, Friday and Saturday 3pm to 10pm. Walk-ins only. We love you and look forward to seeing you ♥️
