"The British Overseas Restaurant Corporation, or BORC, has transformed into Fika, a cafe and co-op from the same owner inspired by Swedish-style teatime." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden

Full English is beyond dank. Smoked salmon hash very much on point. All of the food we had was delicious and super cute. Also, inside I didn't have to hear broke Californian refugees screaming.

SO YUMMY. They bake all their bread and my gosh. The 20 minute wait for freshly baked scones with the best raspberry jam and clotted cream? This meal transports me back to my trip to Highclere Castle!

Some of the best food in town. Well made and it takes awhile to get but worth it. Great place to take visitors!

This is a true Portland experience, laid back and chill dining, with very nice atmosphere and great service. You come here to eat, have a conversation and enjoy the day. If you’re in a rush and it’s busy, take into consideration that there’s not a lot of staff running the restaurant but they always do the best to give you the best experience. The cooking never disappoints, I come here for the best salmon sardine and mocha in the neighborhood. I highly recommend this restaurant as a regular who understand that the purpose here is to be in the moment and take life slowly!

Has good breakfast options, store type feel inside, lots of random furniture.

I stopped in here on a Wednesday at about 6pm with a friend and got dinner and I was truly impressed. The food was amazing. I got a beef pastie and a chicken Caesar salad and both were delicious. The freshly baked croutons and the flaky, buttery savoriness of the pastie really made the price worth it. Not only that but we got an impromptu dinner show by a local ukelele squad. I'll definitely be coming back.

For those who are interested in the actual experience and food, this is the review for you. The dining experience was great. Friendly and great atmosphere. Superb hospitality. The food was quite a great experience. Not only is it fabulously delicious but it is not the generic stuff other establishments offer. This is not cookie cutter, everyday generic food you find around town. It is unique and quite a cultural experience. I had the Burmese Golden Curry and I have to say it was top notch. I will admit I have never had bamboo rice before and I really loved it. I truly am hooked. The tea was wonderful as well. For those who love herbal teas try the Meadow tea from the Steven Smith Tea line. I will say it is the first herbal tea I have had that I didn't need some kind of sweetener or milk for. If you want a cultural food experience, you are tired of the same old same old every day stuff you can find on every block, this is the place for you. Stop by and broaden your pallet or let the food take you back to a place you have been. I am glad to finally see something more diverse in food options. Thank you for not being another burger joint, pizza place, seafood place, steak house, etc. Thank you for being unique.
