Best Coffee Shops in Portland

Portland’s coffee trade is a century older than its specialty fame, and the city’s third-wave shops still cluster along a few east-side streets.

SE Division Street

Stumptown opened its flagship here in 1999, replacing a beauty parlour called Hair Bender.

Central Eastside (SE Grand Avenue)

Coava Coffee Roasters opened its flagship in 2010 at 1300 SE Grand, the original site of its roasting.

Pearl District

Abba Coffee, roasting since 2019, opened its first Pearl café with Korean-influenced drinks in 2023.

Hawthorne and Albina

Albina Press, open since 2004 with sites on Hawthorne and in Humboldt, is a longtime neighbourhood shop.

Sellwood

Either/Or opened in 2013, a multi-roaster pouring Heart and Roseline in a once-quiet neighbourhood.

Citywide history

The city’s coffee trade dates to 1900, when Boyd Coffee sold freshly roasted beans from a horse-drawn wagon.
