If you're visiting Portland stay at the North Division and here you'll spot some few pizza places and this chic coffee shop around the corner. Very friendly and warm vibe and you can definitely stay here for hours if you need work or homeworks done. This is one of a few local coffee shops I like.
Amazing coffee! The women who work here treat my 4 year old daughter and I like friends. Which means so much. It's by far the best coffee shop in Portland.
Good coffee and nice selection of pastries and snacks. I like that they serve egg sandwiches and other foods that contain protein. It's a refreshing change from the many of the coffee shop that only serve baked goods, which are all carbs. I will definitely visit again.
Great coffee, made by knowledgeable baristas. Friendly service, feels like we've been friends for years. Appreciate the rotating, unpretentious art. Good place to hang out and do some work in a cozy setting.
They have a Hemp milk option. They made a perfect latte. They have lots of non-sweet food options. And I can get it all at their drive-thru! I'm so happy they have one because as a mom with a sleeping infant in the car, I way prefer to support this shop than a cruddy Starbucks any day. Any parent knows, Drive-thurs with good options are hard to find. I'm so glad this place is in my neighborhood. I hope with lots of customer support they can stay a long long time!
Personable service, great atmosphere and good coffee! The baristas really made it for me. Great place to work on your own or meet a friend. Will definitely go back!
Dashed into what seemed like a cute corner coffee stop. Warm wood and eye candy around, not so warm reception. Didn't have time for a crafted hot beverage so opted for a drip coffee. 1 choice with hints of berry, nut and some other catagory that had no intrest to me. I prefer 1 hint of at the most, happen to mention it to 1 of the 2 ladies working and her comment was "oh...long pause...well i hope you like it." How rude! LAME...I would have offered a different drink. Too bad, for a moment I was excited to find a drive thru local coffee shop. Bummer.
Worst coffee shop ever! Here are the facts of my experience at Motivasi: the lid the employee put on the to go cup came off as I was drinking my coffee in the shop and spilled hot coffee all over me and my computer. Both employees came over to help, apologizing and saying that this was a KNOWN problem and that they'd been having problems with the lids not fitting the cups and coming off like this. Now my computer is completely broken, it won't even turn on. I called the owner/manager, Josh, about my experience and he was incredibly rude, condescending, and unprofessional, blaming me for the incident and refusing to meet with me or do anything to fix my computer. Absolutely terrible, even more disappointing because it's a neighborhood coffee shop. DO NOT give them your business!
Nice atmosphere. Coffee was uniquely delicious. Also enjoyed a simple, yet good, breakfast sandwich. Good place for casual meetings or to work on your computer.
Great coffee, super friendly staff and a great place to start your day.......or end your day....or anytime in the middle! Also, good pastries, especially their gluten-free raspberry muffins!
