Portland’s Vegan and Vegetarian Food Carts Open for Takeout and Delivery
"Ditto!, the vegan grilled cheese cart located in the parking lot of Jet Black Coffee Company, has reopened with new hours: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Melty grilled cheese sandwiches packed with smoky maple tempeh bacon and tangy barbecue soy curls are available for call-in and online ordering for pickup." - Waz Wu
"Inspired by the band Jawbreaker, this punk-inflected cafe offers a vegan menu from its coffee and tea drinks to pastries from Shoofly, Jen’s Pastries, and Sweetpea Baking Company. The Wi-Fi password is conveniently posted at each table, and the plant-filled space provides a relaxing atmosphere for work." - Nick Woo, Janey Wong

"To kick off your vegan food crawl — especially if you need a warm beverage in the morning to merely function — head over to Jet Black Coffee in the Gateway District. Jet Black collaborated with Water Avenue Coffee to create their own custom medium-dark blend with chocolatey notes. If coffee isn’t your jam, they’re also stocked with Portland teas. Jet Black sources pastries from places like Shoofly Vegan Bakery, Sweetpea Baking Company, Bee’s Cakes, and Bowery Bagels — those feeling like something sweet should opt for a Shoofly cinnamon roll; otherwise, stick to an everything bagel with Vtopia cashew cheese." - Latisha Jensen
When I heard there was a Jawbreaker inspired coffee shop right by my sister’s house that also had vegan eats. Of course i was in. The only reason i didn’t come multiple times is that I was in from the east coast and wanted to hit other places. I’m actually sad i didn’t buy a tee-shirt and they aren’t on the website. If someone can get me a shirt to Baltimore, I’d be very thankful. Anyway. The coffee was top notch. I drink a lot of black drip coffee and this was one of my favorite spots in the PNW. Also had a vegan sandwich and it was also top tier. If you’ve never been check it out.

Loved the gem of a find! The coffee was delicious - my friend had a savory scone and said it was amazing, though I didn't eat any food. Seating both inside and out - large front patio, some covered seating included. Restrooms available, and ample indoor seating. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable - would highly recommend, and I will definitely be back!

My new favorite coffee shop in Portland. I got the cardamom oat milk latte and I loved it. My friend got the lavender oat milk latte and it was great too. I like how you get 2 espresso shots in every drink! I got a tea latte too and personally wouldn’t recommend it. I also wish they’d have their indoor seating open until closing, but they close it an hour early. But I also tried the vegan egg & cheese sandwich and it was so good! They use a dill aioli in it which is delish. Highly recommend this place

cute and cozy vegan cafe with an assortment of pastries and bagels.
not only do they have the basic almond soy and oat milks, they have hemp milk which i recommend (does cost extra)
the orange and cranberry scone is sweet and soft while the gluten free everything bagel with cashew spread was filling.
though the menu is small, there are so many different drinks you can choose from with an assortment of flavors.
i also felt very safe and secure here, this cafe attracts many lgbt+ people as well as different diversities
will definitely come back again :)

This all vegan coffee shop is a must visit place if you’re in Portland. Absolutely delicious coffee and food. The egg and cheese sandwich was soo comforting. We opted to have them on bagels instead of the English muffin they come on. They have a variety of different baked goods as well. Options for milk are soy, coconut, almond, and oat. It looks like they used to have hemp, but it’s marked off.

First time here, just needed a place to work for a few hours. Great atmosphere, great coffee, and I was impressed by the vegan egg sandwich, not having had vegan eggs before. The actually went light on the chocolate in my mocha as well, delicious.

First time I’ve been here and the baristas were super nice and gave an excellent recommendation of the cashew cream cheese.
