SOMA Kombucha Taproom — Restaurant in Portland

Completely automated and unstaffed kombucha shop with some basic seating and fitting music.

I was reminded this place existed again today, so I drove by at 11:30. Swiped my credit card at the door and entered. Very hip. Everything was very organized and set up for self service. Perfect for a spontaneous midnight kombucha run. One thoroughly used sample cup later I had made my pick. Strawberry Ginger was the growler that would adorn my fridge for the next few days.

A word of warning: all these taps skew sweet. If you're not a fan of sweet kombucha then tread lightly here.

There is also some vegan raw soy free gluten free (not kidding) light fare in a refrigerator around the corner.

FYI pricing was $4 for a 18oz cup, a growler for $14.75, and $7.50 for all the food.

I would definitely come here again if I spontaneously felt like I needed a large supply of kombucha...

I actually discovered SOMA at Grocery Outlet in Washington, and I loved it so much that I did a little research. From the kombucha flavors and brewing methods to the use of organic ingredients and mission of the company, SOMA is frickin' awesome. Much to my delight, they had a taproom in Portland so we added it to our list of things to do on our next visit.

My partner and I were both VERY skeptical of the coffee kombucha, but were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed that option. I loved all the add-ons they offered, I got damiana, ginger elixir, colloidal silver and several others. Health-minded people (and also people that just like kombucha) will love this place. There are so many wonderful options, I was in health heaven!

Great music, great decor, super nice staff,...

My interaction with Forest, our host, was one of the most pleasurable and genuine experiences I've had with someone in the customer service industry. They were extremely welcoming and highlighted all the amazing properties of Soma products; but they also included honest critiques--which made me trust their guidance even more. I ended up getting more kombucha than I originally planned: a combination of CBD strawberry kombucha, a dash of ginger elixir, and a dash of wellness water... OMG! Fantastic combination of additional health benefits to accompany a thirst quenching, fresh drink. Forest helped make a complex choice very easy while also bringing what I felt was their bright, welcoming, and thoughtful...
