Good Coffee
1150 SE 12th Ave, Portland, OR
Crema's Take
“Good Coffee lives up to its name with a genuinely knowledgeable crew that treats every regular like an old friend, remembering names and usual orders with real warmth. Their espresso-forward approach shines through in both traditional pulls and wildly creative drinks—think ube coconut matcha and anise sarsaparilla lattes—that show they're having fun with flavor combinations while maintaining serious technical skill. It's a small, cozy spot perfect for grabbing something special on the go, where the staff's friendly efficiency means you'll be out the door fast but never feeling rushed.”

Love this place, the staff is always beyond friendly and the drinks are delicious. Both the lavender matcha and ube coconut matcha are so yummy. I got my drinks to go the past few times but it seems very comfy sitting inside, multiple people were working a on their laptops or talking. Absolutely recommend coming here and will for sure come back soon!
Good Coffee is exactly what it says. It's good coffee. Staff are friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. They quickly learn your name and favorite drink and greet everyone who comes through the door. I look forward to my visits.
Wonderful espresso, cozy location. Got the spectrum blend and it was rich, chocolatey and had the most incredible body. Really enjoyed it! The shop is quite small and the seats not the most comfortable. It's cozy and quaint, but this location is probably more suitable as a quick grab-n-go spot than to chill at. Nevertheless, worth coming to try out their coffee!
The horchata latte sounded amazing and had lots of complex flavors that unfortunately didn’t show up in the finished drink. The coffee itself was strong and tasted fine, but I had to ask for a lot more horchata reduction/syrup to taste anything. Would come back to try other seasonal drinks.
Indeed it was very good coffee. They do not have any sugar free flavors but they do craft some really interesting choices. I tried the Anise sarsaparilla latte and the cardamon latte both with oat milk, and they were both delicious and very well balanced. The Anise sarsaparilla latte was my favorite. Their Matcha is also very good and in the past I've tried the horchata latte which was good as well.
