Albert TreatJanuary 11, 2014Great coffee shop, probably one of my favorites! Not many seats, but if you need an outlet the walls have 'em. Get a latte and an almond croissant, they're delicious!
EpicuriousAugust 3, 2014The menu keeps things simple with just two hand-poured coffee options and two espresso-based drinks per day, the better to showcase the company's single-origin coffees at their best. Read more
Luke BornheimerApril 17, 2013Outstanding espresso drinks! If you're unsure of which espresso to order (they have a rotating menu of two options), ask the barista for a recommendation with your preferences and tastes in mind. Yum!

Very spacious cafe with a chic atmosphere. Quality coffee and great pourovers. Some seating, though not as much as you might expect for the size. Come early on weekdays when it's peaceful and quiet.
Ana MartínezNovember 18, 2013Yes you heard right is a coffee bar. The best ever created if you are a coffee addict like me. This place truly keeps Portland weird, and the quality of their beverages is excellent. service is good!
Ugur KanerAugust 4, 2017Absolutely gorgeous place to spend time and enjoy coffee with. Great wifi, work friendly coffice
Travel + LeisureJune 5, 2014At this low-key café, your single-origin cup may come from Las Capucas, Honduras, or Kilenso, Ethiopia, but it’s roasted in-house by a vintage Probat at the bamboo-lined bar.
Joshua NguyenSeptember 19, 2014Cappuccinos are great and you get to choose the roast! Legit coffee and coffee only shop w good wifi and large tables for a quick work session.
Joel LondonAugust 3, 2020Cold brew masters, definitely recommend trying this out especially on a hot summer day!
Portland's finest micro-roaster prepares & brews exclusive single-origin coffees from around the world to perfection, using SCIENCE! No, really, their methods are precise & the results phenomenal.
Audrie BethJuly 19, 2015All the hipsters. Also, while I'm not a big fan of the taste of coffee, a simple latte (no syrups!) was surprisingly really smooth and tasted great.
Kitt HodOctober 21, 2018Small selection of tea includes a silver needle white, which is made very well, strongly recommended.
Amir BaharlouMay 30, 2016The drop and cappuccino are both good, with source changing daily. Noted: no dogs inside.
JJ ForgathJune 5, 2018Such an interesting space. The bamboo, and building is great. Although, took 3 people and 10+ min to make a single latte.
the most unlikely coffee shop you will ever go to. renovated the Chemex with the Kone filter to reduce waste and get rid of paper flavor. best cup in Portland?
- TrevorApril 22, 2013Stunning coffee, stunning interior. Really a special place and quite possibly the best coffee you'll ever have.
Marc CharbonneauMarch 22, 2015A great spot for coffee if you're in the neighborhood. Check out some of the nearby bars and antique stores after!
Serious EatsSeptember 11, 2013This stylish, spacious roastery cafe shares space with a woodworking studio.
Chris MessinaSeptember 24, 2013What to Order: You can’t go wrong with a cappuccino, made with milk from local Sunshine Dairy.
CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014Watching the baristas work is a lesson in science. Each order is carefully prepared to ensure you’re getting the perfect cup.
Kelly McCarthyFebruary 17, 2015The coffee wins. The space rocks. All you need is more spots to hunker down if your timing is off.
Andie StoleckaMarch 1, 2014Woodwork studio mixed in with a hipster study dome. Great coffee, though.
Melissa TsangJuly 10, 2016Great coffee, wifi, outlets and long tables for a working session. #thedream
Andrew BennettJuly 14, 2015absolutely rad space. wouldn't feel proper calling this a coffee shop because it feels grander and hipper than you could ever expect from such a name.
Great coffee roasted onsite! The location is a bit out-of-the-way but worth it. For a greener cup o' Joe, their Coava Kone filter is now sold nationally.
Anitha RamakrishnanSeptember 11, 2016Coffee beans are for sale . They have friendly staff and a lavishly big coffee bar.
Ravi MongiaAugust 19, 2014Best americanos in the city. Also check out the bamboo goods in the shared space.
David RamalhoJuly 19, 2015Lovely open industrial garage space for coffee. Their cold brew is also quite tasty
irishboyinlondonJune 13, 2013Great coffee in a beautiful space! The staff are really nice too! Definitely visit!
Kellen TerrettAugust 11, 2014The best coffee in all Portland is at Coava. The location is incredible.
These people know there stuff and that's why the menu is short. You already know what you want, now you know it's going to be great.
You can buy espresso roast by the pound, just ask.
Ken FeighnerAugust 6, 2013Find a good parking spot, because you will be spending a lot of time there.

"Buy the barista a coffee! Get the pour over ($3.50) and watch while you get 3/4 of it and they drink the rest. Might be the best cup I've ever had."

"I really enjoy sitting outside at the picnic tables when it’s sunny. Get the bahn mi and a tasty beer. I’ve tried all the pork sandwiches, and they’re great, but wow, the burger is amazing."
