What a cute spot to stop in for some delicious coffee! There are many flavors to choose from and their coffee is so good! I got a brown sugar latte iced and it was amazing! They also had a fun collection of mugs and different tea accessories. Would highly recommend this as a coffee spot for anyone driving by. I also did see gluten free options for a pastry while in there 🙂 the one flaw I will point out if there is one was there wasn’t an abundance of seating indoors so my friend and I couldn’t stay to enjoy the coffee it’s more of a grab and go vibe.

I stopped here while traveling for work for lunch. I expected the typical coffee shop sandwich. You know, hard bread, cold, bland, soggy meat etc.

But boy was I surprised! Hands down one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in such a long time. If there was a sandwich rainbow 🌈 this place would make the sandwich pots of gold!! 🍯 I ordered the 236’er… everything was fresh and was made with quality ingredients. The staff were very polite and the vibe of the cafe was great. Such a cool find that was unexpected. 10/10 recommend trying this spot

This adorable tiny little coffee/tea shop is absolutely amazing. There are allergen friendly options for both beverages and food. There are also a lot of fun local gift options.
Staff is super nice and despite long lines, comes out decently quickly, but more importantly delicious.

The coffee is beyond tasty. The seasonal specials are a must try. The almond honey latte (dairy free) was easily one of the best coffees I've ever had.

Yum!!! Their tofu/chicken bowls are SO good and healthy. I always get extra of their delicious sauces (green curry one is amazing, low spicy). Their chia raspberry pudding is also the bomb! I live an hour away but always stop here when on a long drive down I95. Please open a location north of Portland! 😍

What a nice little place! They have a great selection of delicious coffee, and their food is delicious! My boyfriend had the Canadian bacon wrap, and it was absolutely amazing! My oat milk mocha latte was amazing too! On top of this, the staff are extremely nice! Be prepared to spend a bit, but it is our duty to shop local and support our communities!

The White Heron on 236 in Eliot is basically a pick up (not sure if they deliver). Coffee and sandwiches. This place is hopping! I've driven by but never came inside till the other day. Stay line but moved quickly. There really isn't a place to site and eat inside. They have a been with 3 stools inside and 5 chairs outside (no table). They were friendly and service was great. My friend spilled her coffee just after going outside and they made her another one very quickly. If you're in the area and looking for a quick sandwich & coffee or tea, check them out.

My family is addicted to this place, specifically my little brother. They know our names and orders by heart now, and I'm pretty sure we know their names well too now. Right at home in Eliot where everyone seems to know each other. Two of my classmates from school work here and it seems that they like the job a lot—I suppose you can't complain when you only ever have to work seven hours at most and the whole time is spent talking with customers and coworkers. Stuff is a bit pricey but that's standard fare for stuff now (unfortunately), so at least it's all good too. Not the sort of place I would patronize regularly if I had the choice for myself, but I do not control how my parents choose to spend their money, and in the end I can't complain about supporting local business—it all comes down to preference.
