possibly could be seen as enjoyable if your pants are so tight that they cut off circulation to your brain. if you are looking for a much better alternative for half the money just go to the extremely over priced fastfood joint known as "starbucks"
Really great tasty cappuccinos. Everything seems very fresh. Great quite spot to stop and get some work done on the laptop. I had it to go but would love to stay and sip the coffee next time.
Good local community vibe
I really like this place! It's vegan friendly too! Great environment to just sit and enjoy a cuppa.
Great tea selection. Poor coffee selection. Great vegan goodies.
This is our favorite spot in Portsmouth for so many reasons!
+ The staff is always pleasant and happy, you can tell it's an enjoyable place to work, we've never experienced anyone having a bad day at White Heron.
+ One of the most vegan friendly Portsmouth eateries we've found! Breakfast, Lunch, and early dinner, plus delicious vegan donuts and snacks!!
+ Coffee, consistently delicious coffee roasted in house and always fresh!
+ Community, wonderful patrons and sense of community that Portsmouth is known for.
+ Convenient, it's just outside of downtown so we get the proximity to town without the traffic.
+ WiFi, it's our go to place to work from when we want to get out of the house and interact with like minded people.
Excellent blueberry Lassi. Not too sweet and very good for you! Cafe was clean and spacious and have a nice selection of unique teas. My mother in law bought the coconut rooibos tea and loved it.
I love love love the coffee here. Ate lunch here once and it was really good. The staff ou'd very nice and quickly gets your order completed and to you. I buy my coffee beans for home as well.
Great tea, coffee, food, and blended drinks. I love the cold brew here. Kombucha on tap. Great selection of tea. Bright and open inside. One of few places in town that use unsweetened almond milk in case that matters to you.
Comfortable atmosphere for the casual coffee with friends, reading a book, or getting some work done. It can be very busy at times and seating is limited to 39 so sometimes it's difficult to get a seat. The food is really good with a variety of vegan options!
White Heron is the shining star of Portsmouth's West End. It's a beautiful coffee shop with tea and lunch options. It is spacious, a great place to work or meet up with friends. They even have live music on summer weekends!
I was really disappointed, the tea was great but the service and food was awful. We paid $10 a piece for these tiny little breakfast burritos that were gross, I will not be going again.
Other than the parking situation and the small lot, I love this place. Staff is very nice- the tea is incredible- never thought I would care much for their cold brewed version in the summer- the black tea- and it is so much better and has a jolt to do it- than any other summer time teas: and without all the sugar. Their hot tea varieties are amazing. Quinoa bowls are heaven; a good amount of space and great ambiance to hang out in the afternoons on the computer during a cold winter day. I don't usually get tempted with bakery items, but gluten free brownies, Pumpkin whoopie pies (when it is the fall): wow! Not the same old, same old sweets and much consideration is given if you have celiac or other food allergies.
Love this place. Great atmosphere, lots of light and great food and tea/coffee. Staff is always friendly and helpful. The rice bowl with coconut curry sauce is a must have! Lots of vegan and wheat free options.
The white heron is a lovely local place where you can grab a coffee or tea, get some work or reading done, or catch up with your friends.
The ambiance is laid back, and the prices are budget friendly so this is somewhere you can hit several times a week, coffee quality is rather good and you can take some coffee by the pound home as well.
I have tried their blueberry and chocolate scones and was less than impressed.
I can certainly recommend you try this place, especially if you happen to be nearby.
