Reviews for IKE Box Café in Salem, OR
I came here earlier this month on the 8th of July. It was a Friday afternoon. The vibe of this shop was kinda strange. There was... a guy with a beard and glasses at the counter that wasn?t very friendly and a girl who seemed new. I was hoping for a nice lattewith latte art on top. I got a latte sloppily made and double cupped (which is bad enough when they do that at Starbucks) andthe girl puts the lid on the cup for me which was immediately a red flag. I took the lid off and there was a lump on cream/foam.Like she just dumped it on top. The guy instead of giving this poor soul any support had his back to the whole experience. Thegirl was awkward and not friendly at all either. I was really disappointed. The coffee tasted ok. Would not recommend. Read more
Very clean. Big building. Smells homey when you walk inside.
This is a gorgeous café. The interior is spacious and the painted murals are lovely! The coffee is delicious. The service was... great. I would have liked more substantial food choices, but that's a personal preference. Read more
Cute coffee shop in an old building downtown. My Americano with sugar-free white chocolate syrup was good. The bagel and cream... cheese was good too but not worth the price. My wife enjoyed her quiche. The main seating area was very open. The staff werefriendly. You can walk to the state capital building in about five minutes from here. Read more
I?ve recently discovered this treasure of a place! The cozy atmosphere, local coffee, and food is so rich and enjoyable! I... absolutely love the art featured by a local painter as well ?????? Read more
First time coming here, and it was amazing! The staff was nice greeting us as we came into the café, was patient as I took my... time to decide what I wanted, and was also helpful in recommending a delicious drink. It was a White Chocolate Mocha withRaspberry, which I got with oat milk, my wife got a Vanilla Matcha Latte, and we shared a Chocolate Chip Cookie. The ambience isalso very relaxed and old school scenery. They sell their own merch and Sister Coffee beans, which I will be tryingsoon. Definitely going back, and recommend the café. Read more
Always friendly staff working and I love the mission of the place. When the space is open for seating inside, theres always a... table you can find and it's a dream of such open space and great music. Seasonal specials every few months which is my fav. Loveseeing the regulars come together here so often - It really has a community feel inside! Their outdoor tables are perfect on awarm day for talking with friends or reading a book. Blueberry lemon scone is 10/10 and the muffins are just as good! Read more
My opinion is a little biased because of dietary restrictions, but the GF cookies are great and the chai latte is really nice.... The drip coffee is also surprisingly delightful if you enjoy a strong medium roast. The space is super unique with a stage andlots of room for sitting, etc. Read more
