Crema's Take
“Bastion's Ethiopian roast is a blueberry-forward revelation that'll ruin you for ordinary coffee, and their creative cold drinks like the raspberry matcha are executed with enough precision to justify the hype. The space draws a genuine crowd of coffee nerds and families alike, with an artsy vibe and baristas who actually care about getting your drink right. If you're in Portland and want specialty coffee that tastes like the roasters thought deeply about flavor rather than just following trends, this is worth the visit.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.
