Case Study
I’ve been to the Case Study on Sandy, but not to the one on Alberta (1422 NE Alberta) and I have to say the one on Alberta is far superior. It has good coffee and a fantastic loft seating area. I could definitely come back here to work.

Coffee House Five
Located right next to PCC (740 N Killingsworth St) this is clearly a college hangout. The interior is spacious and the coffee reasonable. I did feel a little out of place not being of college going age, but if I was back in school, I could see myself coming here.

J Cafe
The only good thing I have to say about the J Cafe is that the coffee didn’t make me sick like it did at Gold Rush. The rapidly renovating Lloyd district is clearly ready for a good coffee shop to come in.

Pigtrain Coffee
I’m in Denver at the moment so my #pdxcoffeehunt is temporarily on hold until I’m back in Portland, however to keep up the momentum, here’s a cute little shop mysteriously called Pigtrain Coffee in Union Station in Denver’s LoDo district. Good coffee as well!

Airport Coffee People
I’m traveling this week, so the 30 day challenge will pause for a few days, however, I did manage to try a “new to me” coffee shop in the PDX airport. It’s about what you would expect for airport coffee although I will add it’s worse here than the Starbucks.

Extracto
I’ve driven by this shop (1465 NE Prescott St) a few times but never had the occasion to stop in. Today, I rectified that, and was reminded how much I dislike trendy, cookie cutter coffee shops with bitter, oily coffee. Do you really need 5 pour overs ready to go?

Whole Foods Coffee Shop
I was a bit more adventuresome today and tried the coffee shop inside my local Whole Foods. They do have a lot of great seating and wifi, but boy howdy is their coffee terrible!

Arbor Lodge
I had been putting this one off for a while because I was pretty sure it was going to be a good coffee shop, and I was thankfully right. Great seating, good coffee, friendly baristas. I will definitely be back (1507 N Rosa Parks Way.)

My greatest hope for iOS 10 is that I won’t have to write code any more to move UITextFields and UITextViews on screen when the keyboard appears.

Cafe Eleven
So I shouldn’t like this place, but it somehow captures the neighborhood coffee shop vibe in a way most others don’t. Located at 435 NE Rosa Parks Way, it’s definitely off the beaten path, and with decent seating and good coffee it felt very comfortable to me.

Another Shot of Blend Coffee

Blend Coffee Lounge
Blend is my new gold standard for coffee shops:
- Great coffee (choice of Stumptown or Coava),
- Lots of seating both indoor and out
- Outlets at almost every seat
- Super clean
- Quiet

Heart Coffee
Working at Heart today which has been on my list to try for a long time. Great seating and location (2211 E Burnside) to work. My only complaint is the coffee which has an oilier, bitter flavor similar to Coava. I do not understand the bitter coffee movement. #pdxcoffeehunt

Cup and Bar
Got to spend a decent amount of time working here today. Good Trailhead coffee, wonderful open space for working. I liked it a lot. Cup and Bar is one of the few good coffee shops on MLK (118 NE Martin Luther King Jr Blvd.)

Wholesome Blend
Had a busy Sunday so found this little whole in the wall (pun intended…) The staff behind the counter were very friendly and the coffee was pretty good. I don’t know why these shops insist on using cloth seating which just collects food and stains though. #pdxcoffeehunt

Spielman Bagels
I didn’t have a lot of time today, so I ducked into Spielman Bagels (2200 NE Broadway St) and tried their latte. The coffee was a little sweet but pretty good overall. The interior had tons of room and looked like a great place to work in the future.
