Crema's Take
“Push Pull's fermentation-forward approach to sourcing and roasting creates coffees with remarkable clarity and juiciness that punch well above the typical Portland specialty shop. The space itself is a quiet refuge with soaring windows and plenty of outlets, making it equally suited for a solo pour over meditation or settling in with friends, and the staff's genuine warmth means you'll actually want to linger. This is legitimately one of Southeast Portland's best—go for the pour overs and stay for the kind of coffee that reminds you why the specialty scene matters.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

Great, tasty coffees focused on fermentation/processing. House drip great, pour overs fantastic, loved that you could taste the beans on the menu before buying.

Delicious coffee and excellent service. This is a great place to chill and do work or study. A lot of light comes in from the ceiling tall windows and there are outlets throughout to charge your phone or laptop.
