Case Study Coffee is a nice place to have coffee and you guessed it, to study. I initially ordered the masala latte (I think that's what it was called?) and... honestly, I blanked out after the first few sips because I just didn't love it. It was too bitter for me. But before I could even fully process my disappointment, Ashley, the barista, noticed my expression right away. She was so kind about it! And reassured me that it was totally okay and encouraged me to pick something else instead. That moment of care made all the difference. I switched to their seasonal malt maple drink, had it made hot with almond milk, and wow, that was the one. Warm, cozy, subtly sweet, and absolutely perfect for cold Portland weather. It felt like comfort in a cup, the kind of drink you slowly sip while watching the rain outside. read more

Delicious coffee, vegan pastry options, and a cozy interior--Case Study is a great option in downtown Portland. On an early Sunday morning, I stopped by and picked up some espresso drinks. I was excited that they also had a vegan brioche style cinnamon roll (I think from Catscratch.) Both were excellent and went very well with each other. I thought the spot was quite cute and welcoming too. Lots of wood interior features and low lighting. Glad to have them as an early morning option! read more

The place is a cool spot to have coffee and hang out for a bit and whatever you tend to do a coffee shop. Service was lovely music was great and the coffee was good. What more can you ask for. I enjoyed a little rest here with my iced white mocha. read more

Great independent coffee. Lovely pastries. Busy place. It seemed to have a strong local following. Warm and inviting.

I was visiting Portland for the weekend and checking out different coffee shops when I came across Case Study Coffee. I'm really glad I did. The space is cozy and welcoming, making it a great place to take a break while exploring the city. The coffee was delicious--smooth, well-made, and clearly high quality. It was exactly what I needed during a busy day of walking around downtown. Definitely worth stopping by if you're visiting Portland and want a great cup of coffee. read more

We arrived on a bustling Thursday morning around 10:00 and found many customers working away, easily focusing despite all the activity. The barista team was very efficient and focused. The chai latte smelled amazing! The flavor was delicious--just the right level of chai. The hot chocolate had a great presentation, no typical whipped cream topping. It also wasn't heavy sweet. While we visited Portland we visited many coffee shops; Case Study Coffee was definitely one of our favorites! I encourage you to come check it out. read more

Case Study -- cute name for a coffee shop. It's the standard of mill of what you would expect in the cafe -- good coffee and nice selection of pastries, so perfect for when you want a little treat with your cup of java. We ordered: - [ ] Vanilla Latte -- tastes good. - [ ] Turmeric Golden Milk - Better than I had expected, meaning not powdery but drink its way, way too sweet. I recommend asking with less honey. I do see all tables occupied and this is one of a few coffees shop in Portland with steady crowd and more folks lingering. A lot of shops on Downtown closes early including this cafe. One of my favorite little touches at Case Study is the "question of the day" they post at the counter--something fun or quirky to ponder while you wait for your coffee. They even leave out pens so you can doodle or jot down your answer on countertop. It's such a small gesture, but it makes the space feel warm, creative, and human. Just wrote "Yelp"! Good coffee, great vibes, and a reason to put your phone down for a minute and sit with a friend. Love this spot! read more

Polite barista, cardamom rose latte with oatmilk was a banger, clean bathroom. Pastry looked good but I did not indulge. Barista was at register and making coffee. It was out in less than 2 minutes. read more

This place highly recommended by so many locals. It's very nice stop just to hangout and get coffee. I wish i discovered this place early because i would have worked here. I got the iced latte, oat milk, with salted caramel syrup. I think this was too salty for my taste. I did not enjoy this. It was fault, should have gotten the vanilla or hazelnut. Overall nice experience but was not a fan for what i ordered. The service was great and the guy was very sweet. read more

I'm not gonna lie I was super disappointed with this place. The staff and the establishment were amazing it's just the drinks that were very disappointing. The inside of the coffee shop was very comfortable and calm overall. I just can't say anything positive about the coffee itself it was very bland and even old tasting like it had been just sitting there and was rewarmed up. read more

it is about 90°F outside. Just stepped in to Case Study. AC is on. I feel so cool. So, I'm rolling with my favorite midday drink - cappuccino. First time at this coffee shop so I'm comparing the taste utility to a "cap" at Barista or Stumptown. it is a two shot espresso with whole milk, temperature about 150, very well balanced (acidity to sweetness with a little bitter back taste) - robust flavor with three origins - Columbia, Ethiopia and Mexico. The single cup of cappuccino is sourced from around the world and in my world makes my world today! Nice going case study. See you again. read more

I was visiting Portland for a work trip and I came here twice for their jasmine matcha latte. I hadn't seen jasmine with matcha before at a cafe and it was so good I had to come back and get it again! I got it cold both times and it had a nice jasmine flavor which went well with the matcha. Definitely recommend if you like matcha It's a bigger cafe that has tons of seating inside which is nice. read more

Case Study Coffee - Jasmine matcha latte (iced) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I'd give it a 3.5 I always wanted to try and so here we are! Finally got to drop by instead of seeing it on the max. Environment: It is a little loud but I'm sure some people could work there. It has an old cozy vibe feel and there were all kinds of seating. Staff: They were okay, they got my order and that was it. I said thank you to them lol. Drink: I got their latte with regular milk and such. I always get something 'normal' or 'typical' if it's my first time. The price was a little higher for the size I got (their "small"). The coffee was fragrant and strong but later on as I kept drinking the aftertaste got more sour for me. It was sour in the end so I probably wouldn't try again because of that. If you don't mind the more fruit and sour tastes, go ahead! read more

Order: 12 ounce vanilla latte hot Pros: you know I base a good latte on whether or not I have to add sugar. If I have to add sugar to me that means it's not really good latte. This place has really good hot vanilla lattes. I do not have to add sugar. It's just sweet enough to enjoy and not bitter. Love this coffee place. Cons: none read more

If you know me, you know I loveee matcha, so stopping by Case Study Coffee was a must! Even though we arrived 30 minutes before closing, the barista was super friendly and patient, walking us through the menu with a smile. I went for the Iced Jasmine Matcha, while my friend got the Hot Matcha, and we both absolutely loved our drinks! Very cozy, quaint atmosphere made it the perfect spot to unwind, sip, and chat. Definitely adding this to your must try list of go-to coffee shops! read more

Fig matcha!!! Say no more! Overall seems like they have great experimental flavors without going into crazy town territory (think Dutch bros). The inside isn't the best to get work done as it is busy, but great to catch up with friends. read more

I have mixed feelings about my experience. I got a "figgy matcha" since I'd already had plenty of coffee that day. The drink was really good. I'd definitely go there again to grab something to go. The environment wasn't really for me. It would be a nice place to work or read if the music wasn't blasting. One of the baristas was really nice. The other was really short with folks. A couple of people, including myself were waiting for the bathroom for over 15min. One of the women waiting went and said something because we were concerned for the person inside .She was just brushed off. If you require any gluten free food (or don't want a baked food), there is nothing else there. This includes no snacks or bars. However, I find that a lot of the cafes in that area of Portland are like this. read more

Perfect reading cafe, if you don't get too distracted by the charming and ever changing crowd. Baristas here are always happy to entertain my many questions. Unique seasonal specials and house-made syrups available. The fig matcha was delicious and had a hint of clove and spice that I didn't expect, which paired well with the light sweetness of the matcha. I'll be back to try these lovely looking pastries and get distracted from my current read. read more

Great Portland atmosphere on a great corner of cool unique shops to walk around with your boogie cup of joe.

I really enjoyed this location of Case Study Coffee. I always make it a point to stop by when in the area. I usually get a soy latte to enjoy while I read my book. The food here is excellent. Decent selection. The staff are super friendly and very fast with getting orders out. Not too expensive either. 10 outta 10 will be back. read more

Case Study Coffee - Soy vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Quick Summary - Lovely interior - Coffee was sour - Loud chatter ambience - There were some sweet baked dishes but not many savory options We visited here in the summer morning of Portland, when the air was still chilly to enjoy a cup of hot coffee. Out of the many cafes we visited in Portland, this one was the busiest. There were plenty of tables and chairs, bars, and stools, but all were taken. Inside there was a S-shaped line that zig-zagged to the center of the cafe, where the counter was. At a glance, the seats were on the outside of the doughnut and the staff were working inside. Since it was breakfast time, we hoped to eat a sandwich while having coffee, but most of them were sweet desserts. The only savory option was bagel with cream cheese, so we took this option for this round. There were were a couple of guests waiting around the pickup area, and completed orders were called out by the menu item rather than the name. At the time, it was lucky that I was the only one who ordered the bagel with cream cheese. Out of the many coffee places we tried in Portland, at black (without milk or cream) it was the sourest. That is mostly the reason why I lowered the rating from 5 to 4. While the coffee is the main element in rating cafes. I did enjoy being at this cafe and sitting at one of the tables that had the view of the outside. read more

Great, spacious coffee shop in Downtown Portland! I stopped by here to do some work one day and wondered why I've never been here before. The cafe was pretty busy, with almost all of the seats taken except for bar seating (and there's a lot of seating). The inside of the shop gets an abundance of sunlight and is a great place to work. I ordered the jasmine matcha and was pleasantly surprised by how fragrant the jasmine was in the matcha and how well they complimented each other. The baristas were super kind. I highly recommend this coffee shop if you're in downtown! read more

I stopped by this cute coffee shop - they have great coffee selection and friendly staff

visited portland for a week and came to this spot 3 times. friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and great drinks. i ordered a hot jasmine matcha latte every single time, i absolutely loved the taste and i wish i could go back to drink it again. my friends got different drinks across the menu and liked them all- including the honey lavender latte, masala latte, and malted maple. only thing is that the honey lavender latte is a bit light on the lavender flavor, but they'll give you more if you ask. we also had their cinnamon knot, pumpkin scone(?), and cinnamon bun. all great pastries but they would taste so much better warmed. hope to return in the future :') read more

So after a stay at the Heathman, I did some Yelp research and found that Case Study had excellent reviews. SO we had to go!! Now I was VERY VERY sad to learn that the Bourbon Caramel syrup wasn't vegan BUT the hazelnut was so I settled for that. Now the coffee itself was NOT my favorite. I didn't really like it much at all. BUT my husband loved his tea. Also the service was great, it has a super chill and very Portland vibe. It was clean, lots of people working or studying and everyone in the shop was jus chill and happy. I love the setup just wasn't crazy about the coffee. I would say 3 stars but hubs said 5 so I gave 4! read more

So good! Their Jasmine matcha latte with oat milk is absolutely delicious! It has the perfect balance of jasmine flavor, and it's pure heaven. Recently, I tried their chai since it's housemade, and it was amazing! A lot of places make their chai watery, but this one was perfectly rich and flavorful. The interior is cute, with plenty of spots to sit. You've got to try these two drinks--sooo good! read more
