Happy Sparrow Cafe

We came into your shop to be welcomed with such a wonderful smile and conversation. We're not from Lake Oswego but I'll definitely remember this experience and stop in when we're in town. Coffee is amazing!

The two friendly staff we met had enough energy to power a small town! They recommended delicious kolaches to try - go for the Texas original, porky pig, and potato egg cheese. Great coffee. We had a fantastic start to our day, thank you!

Kolaches are so yummy. All sorts of savoury and sweet. Warm, freshly made taste. Lovely atmosphere from the ample daylight, to the comfy sofa, to the little touches in the decor. Really good coffee. Surely a jewel in the social crown of the local area. Fancy a coffee, or nibble of something different, or even just popping out, this has got to be the place. I love it. As a visitor this is what you have that it's so special.

It really pains me to write this, because the food is so good! It’s the staff that’s the problem. And I don’t just mean mere rudeness. I mean one of the staff members actually finding me on social media and verbally attacking me, cursing me out. (Another staff member also caused me a lot of personal harm, the details of which I won’t get into.) I won’t be going back to this toxic environment, a place I used to recommend to others. I’d rather eat decent food made by decent people, than extraordinary food made by such destructive people. The drinks, also, are not good, and are overpriced.

It’s a really cute location, and I love the color scheme and tiny layout. Fire the staff, hire good people the customers can trust and who handle their personal issues responsibly, improve the drinks, and you’ve got yourself a business that really sets itself apart. Until then, well, the world just doesn’t need any more toxicity.

We were travelling though Oregon looking for coffee and found this delightful little spot with four outdoor picnic tables in a neighborhood south of Portland. The staff was friendly and the coffee was superb. It was just a few blocks from the freeway and a nice change of pace.

The couple that owns the happy sparrow are the nicest people in town there kolache's are definitely five stars next time I'm back in town I will definitely come and get a bunch more of these so yummy. It's sad that people have posted bad reviews because of masks and this is a country of freedom and they should be able to run their business how they want to!

Always a pleasure. The best experience for a quick breakfast. The people there have the best personality and I love their Texas hotlinks!

Amazing coffee and food, and the owner Mary was so sweet and welcoming we can't wait to come back and try more!

I have tried two savory and two of the sweet kolaches at Happy Sparrow. I would not return based on what I had.
The service was fine but the customer does most of the work. You bus your own table, get your own coffee and order at the front etc. My rating us based on the food but I found it silly that the payment device suggests a tip of 15 to 20%.
The really high ratings make me feel like I missed something but I wouldn't recommend it based on my experience.

Such yummy kolaches. The bread is very light. I like the savory ones better than the sweet one. It tends to be very crowded from 8-10ish and after it's much quieter.

easy place to grab a bite instead of going to mcdonalds when in a rush to eat between activities. esp since the kids love it.
