Comfy, with friendly service ... the ambience is somewhere between a typical Portland indie coffeeshop and an ice-cream palace. You can sit with a laptop for a while and not feel weird about it, though you should certainly buy something first.

Food: The gelato is AWESOME, handmade with real ingredients (of course!) -- someplace to take out-of-towners to brag about how good we've got it here.

Drink: The coffee/espresso drinks are decent, and there's hot tea and drinks for kids too.
