It seems as though every corner you turn in Portland, you can find a cute and hip coffee shop. It is difficult to narrow down the best, and you need weeks to visit them all, but here is a list of what coffee shops we are loving right now!
Dapper & Wise Coffee Roasters
Dapper & Wise aims to roast the best coffees they cand find, and always want to invent new ways to treat their employees and coffee producers better, provide the tastiest coffees and beverages, bee nice to everyone, and have fun. They like to say they are coffee roasters and humans. Dapper and Wise is located on the heart of Division Street on the corner of SE Division. With large windows, when the sun is shining, Dapper & Wise is met with incredible light inside. The Dapper & Wise aesthetic is beautiful, with open space, and simple blue chairs and white tables.

Barista
Barista started by serving the greatest coffees from roasters all over the country but began to wonder if they could do the same thing. So, they took well-sourced and high-quality green coffee to create their own roast style, and they now roast and wholesale their own coffee, along with serving exceptional coffees from the world’s finest roasters. They aim to have the most skilled baristas in Portland, and they definitely follow through, every drink is made to perfection. With seasonal drinks, a happy hour, a beautiful dark interior, and a variety of pastries and small bites, Barista is the place to meet a friend, grab breakfast, or hunker down and get work done. Located in the Pearl, Downtown, Alberta, and Nob Hill.

Good Coffee
Good coffee really lives up to its name, because, well, it’s good! They like to think of themselves as a friendly neighborhood coffee shop, and a place to be in good company. Good has an incredible seasonal menu, currently featuring a cardamom latte, blackberry spiced cocoa, a maple & orange latte, and a matcha lavender latte. They also have an extensive list of teas along with your typical coffee drinks. Their four shops, located in the Woodlark Hotel, Slabtown, Richmond, and Buckman, all share a similar simple white aesthetic. The employees are some of the friendliest baristas in town!
Good also does good in the community with COMMON GOOD. This project chooses a new organization every six months to highlight. The package of COMMON GOOD coffee tells the story of the work the organization is doing, and 20% of proceeds from the coffee are donated to the organization! We love places that are also helping the community thrive. Don’t forget to get your picture with their iconic “Good” floor tile while you’re in!
