Stumptown Coffee Roasters · Downtown
Willamette Week calls the newest Stumptown cafe downtown's third location, after the Ace Hotel lobby shop and the original flagship. Launched 1999, it wrote the direct-trade playbook the specialty world followed.
Coava Coffee Roasters · Central Eastside
Willamette Week's Public Brew Bar review calls out the roastery-first setup on SE Grand, a single-origin specialist since 2008 sharing its flagship space with a bamboo bike maker.
Sterling Coffee Roasters · Northwest District
Portland Monthly's profile traces Sterling's vault from an eight-seat shop on NW 21st to its 950-square-foot standard-bearer space. Dialed drinks, espresso flights, handmade Ecuadorian chocolate.
Courier Coffee · Downtown
Portland Monthly's dual-concept pick. Joel Domreis's roastery paired with Sakiko Setaka's Soen Japanese kitchen serving seasonal kakigori.
