Pause Coffee Lab

"Oh my gosh! so happy to have this fantastic coffee, study area, visiting friends business in Gresham oregon. Plenty of very comfortable seating..... even a beautiful loft upstairs. Two large restrooms. The menu has a variety of healthy foods, breakfast sandwich choices, and my coffee has been delicious every time I've been here. I can't say enough about how friendly the employees are. You'll always find a parking space either along the street. They also share a parking lot with the church so it's great!"

"This was our first time in the coffee shop. They have a fantastic selection of food and drinks. I was recommended a mango habañero kombucha. It was great. The entire layout of the place is very welcoming. I'm pretty sure it has an association with the church that it is connected to but does not push religion onto its customers. The servers are very friendly and knowledgeable. The only thing I had an issue with is their food product. The pastries are made very well and are very tasty. This buisness takes part in a great program where instead of throwing away unwanted food products, they discount it so they can avoid food waste. The bag of food we were given looked great on the outside. Most of the pastries were still great. They tasted very fresh. However, one had started to grow fungus inside the pastry. It is difficult to tell from the outside, so I can understand how it wasn't caught before being given to us. The pastry had an apple filling, and that's where I believe the problem was. For the food waste program, I would just recommend watching the pastries with fruit inside them. Besides that, fantastic place for our first visit."

"The cafe is super cute and very clean. We were greeted when we walked up to order. The barista was super friendly and patient as I decided what I wanted to get to eat. I ordered a caramel latte, a kids hot chocolate, a croissant with a chocolate dip on the side, an acai bowl, and did a custom toast order. Everything came out fast, hot, delicious, and better than I had expected. They deserve 5 stars and I definitely be coming back. It’s my new favorite cafe ❤️"

"This place was adorable! I was out in the area starting my morning and had about an hour to burn and came across this gem through a quick google search. Delicious coffee and a fantastic atmosphere! You wouldn’t expect this place to be here based on the surrounding area as it has a total “downtown” vibe with their adorable apron uniforms, modern decor, and elevated ambiance."

"Awesome new coffee shop. Amazing as a workspace (plenty of room and tables) or just to hang out with friends. Also have a more private upstairs section. Owner put his heart into building this place and you can tell. Gresham needed something like this - definitely going to be a regular"
