This is a quaint little shop that still produces it's own paper and products! It's a cool spot to stop in a browse and pick up a sheet of Portland-made paper and mail a handwritten card to your mom!

This place is cozy and quaint; it's only a couple short blocks from my building and it's always relaxing; it's more of a low-key bistro. Pork sandwich and chili are delicious!

I recommend every guest stop in here at least once while in town. It's an old elementary school that has been re-purposed as a hotel, restaurant, theater, & bars. It's a classic Portland experience.
