You've already been to the coffee chains - try something special. Unique and extensive drink flavorings, milks, and almost any customization you can think of - but not pretentious or over-priced. Just good coffee, and a few other things. Your trip to the village is not complete without a stop in here.

Mexican style cuisine inspired by fresh, local ingredients, catering to a variety of dietary needs (gluten free, vegan, paleo, pescatarian), plus a full bar with one of the best margaritas in Portland. Ask for the triple citrus: lime, lemon and orange, it doesn’t have a drop of premade ‘mix,’ and don’t miss out on the guacamole. Yum!

Drinks & Nightlife

If you like beer, this is the place for you. Over 700 different bottled beers available daily from around the world, including local breweries.
