I love this cafe! I used to live in the neighborhood and have missed it. Great gluten free sandwich today! I hear Jola will be offering dinner service starting Wednesday next week! I'll be returning on my next visit to Portland to try it out!

I came in with low expectations, I mean it’s a hospital coffee shop… and was so impressed! I got the two egg breakfast with gluten free toast and ate it so fast I could take a picture! The bacon was perfectly crispy and thick, nailed the over easy eggs and the gluten free toast was some of the best I’ve had! For dessert I had a pumpkin spice latte with oat milk and a gluten free salted caramel chocolate chunk cookie. All delightful. Staff was super friendly and I found out it’s a locally owned family business. If you’re at OHSU it’s an amazing option!

I want to love this place but don’t be fooled by gluten free menu designations. I got hit with gluten hard. I had them check with the chef but got hit anyway. Afterwards I checked their status on find me gluten free and sure enough many have had this same issue.

In a word, AWESOME. Everything in this place is top notch. The owner and her staff are welcoming and know their jobs. They listen and deliver on sometimes silly and ridiculous requests--which is what we've all come to expect in a coffee shop. In addition to the best mochas (according to my husband), they also offer a great variety of pastries (vegan and gluten free, too) and killer breakfast sandwiches. The secret is out--Driftwood Coffee rocks!

Super small space so I recommend doing take out but like the other Sesame Collective locations the flavors, quality of food, and customer service are superb. They have a menus marked up for allergies/dietary restrictions (gluten and vegan). We got the hummus with burnt beef ends (possibly their best dish, were obsesses) and Chicken Shwarma, they swapped cucumbers for pita for me and I was still so full I didn't even miss the pita. Plus it was so flavorful!

I thought I’d group the photos this time. The guys are graduates & we get together when I’m in town. You’ll notice how HopCity is transformed during their breakfast buffet. Their pancakes are hand sized ONLY for the buffet but you can order normal sized ones from the menu. Yes I enjoy loads of thick crispy Oregon bacon-similar to English & Italian bacon. See that “cup” of ice cream-it’s 3full scoops of Alpine ice cream, locally made craft ice cream. There’s factory tours of their facility. HopCity has both craft & other types of beers & wines. If you’ve allergies like me, notify the wait staff, the chefs will do a great job of substitution to accommodate you. There’s even a gluten free toaster with a wait staff person reminding visitors not to use it with regular breads. There’s a variety of fruit juices, teas & coffees. I strongly recommend you trying Boyd’s Coffee at HopCity & elsewhere in Oregon. It thick rich non bitter coffee (also available in K-cup in groceries).

I have celiac so I come here for the lattes and the gluten free soup. The miso tomato soup is so good, though I wish they would bring back the ginger carrot soup. It was so delicious! The black sesame maple latte is my fave, but all their drinks are great. The service is always exceptional and the ambience is really calm. It’s a great place to chill and enjoy some yummy coffee and food.
