Opened in 2007 in the lobby of the fantastic Ace Hotel, this cafe has incredible atmosphere. Look for the secret, over-stuffed couches upstairs in the lobby. It’s also the perfect starting spot to explore Portland, with Powell’s Books just around the corner and Clyde Common across the lobby.

In addition to a full espresso bar, drip coffee, brew-by-the-cup offerings and cold brew, you can enjoy beverages from Big Easy Bucha, Pok Pok and Steven Smith Tea as well as pastries and yogurt from Rushmore Baking.
