Crema's Take
“Red e café roasters roasts their beans in-house and pulls exceptionally clean, nuanced espresso that baristas actually care about getting right—they'll remake your shot until it's perfect. The bright, open space is perfect for lingering over pour-overs or stacking up on their buttery cardamom cinnamon rolls and excellent breakfast sandwiches, making it a legit neighborhood favorite that outpaces nearby competitors.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Wifi.

See all on Google →I love the little egg & sausage breakfast sandwiches. You can also buy bags of coffee beans to go in store, and online. The Sicobi Mexico coffee is my favorite coffee ever. Great place to bring your dog. They have dog treats.
The coffee taste good! They roast their own beans which gives it's unique taste. The atmosphere really fits the cafe, the buliding, coffee roaster in the opening and overall people.
Great place. One of my favorites in the neighborhood. I love how bright the coffee shop is and the open layout in general. The coffee is better than the two closest cafes too me, but it doesn't quite make my Portland top ten. It's definitely a runner up though.
Great cafe for classic flavors. Latte was delicious and cream forward. Cardamom cinnamon roll was buttery, with caramelization on the bottom. Strong competitor in a neighborhood filled with cafes.
The barista was kind and knowledgeable, even taking the time to redo my espresso a couple times when it wasn’t pulling satisfactorily. The espresso tasted great. The shop space is large, with plenty of tables that would be well suited to working at, but there’s also some couches…
