Crema's Take
“The rotating gallery of local artwork on the walls gives Rain or Shine a creative energy that sets it apart from typical Portland coffee shops, though recent reviews suggest the staff's hospitality hasn't kept pace with that ambition. You'll find solid espresso drinks and breakfast sandwiches, plus a dog-friendly patio that makes it worth visiting on a nice day, but come during off-peak hours if you value a warm welcome.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly. Parking available.

Great staff, perfect coffee and matcha drinks. A rotating selection of local artist with framed paintings and prints for sale keeps the space fresh and interesting even after many visits. Odd Fox & Fern(that's me) is the featured artist for Aug-Sept 2025!
