Nah! Location is grat, although ofc parking is tough, but that's not their fault. Coffee is quite acidic- their drip. The scone I got is a chewy thing with no taste. Overblown prices! Not my cup of coffee!
The seasonal fig latte is a delicious combo of flavors and just the right amount of sweetness so it doesn't overpower the espresso! Fast service and a great open layout for enjoying your drink.
A gem in NW Portland with great menu items and a legit atmosphere. I absolutely love the days when it's nice enough for the garage door to come up and let the fresh air inside. As an americano lover, I like that they typically offer their standard espresso Spectrum as well as another single origin choice. You literally can't go wrong, either way. Parking in the area can be a bit tricky, but the coffee and the service are worth the extra effort. You'll be uplifted by the coffee, and invigorated by the hip ambiance.
WHEN: Sun @9am Came here just before it got really busy. I appreciate the lovely menu design of drinks, and what they have to offer. They also have a fridge of non-coffee beverages, and merch that is very well designed (hats, totes, tumblers, teas and coffee beans, etc.) From what it looks like, the pastries they serve here are from Nuvrei, a bakery I find quite fancy and delicious! SEATING: I love all the options of seating here: + Outside there is a long counter with stools where the trees will provide shading depending on the time of the day. + Inside towards the front are booth seatings. + Inside towards the back where the booth seatings help provide a bit of privacy from neighboring seats. RESTROOM: Because it's in a shared space with other businesses, the clean restroom is through the back door on the other side of the elevator/stairs. The code to get in is 9813. WI-FI: The wi-fi (Good Coffee Guest) here is not great so be prepared to hot-spot it! So here's what I had: PEAR CARDAMOM LATTE - $7 (16oz) Espresso, Milk, and a reduction made from fresh NW pear and cardamom. Garnished with a. Bergamot mist. It was only $1 more for double the size, which is why I went for the 16oz, haha. To be honest I don't taste the pear maybe because of the cardamom. Overall it's still a yummy drink and I really enjoyed it! CROISSANT - $6 Decent croissant. Pretty pricey though. I love the huge opening entrance since it's a garage door. But they do close it since they have the AC on, and it's getting warmer out. All in all, I love the vibe here, and how this cafe is decorated with plants. The layout is practical, with the huge open spaced with tall back rest of the booths, which as mentioned provided kind of a private separation from other customers. This spot has easily become a favorite to work out of.
If there weren't any seats inside, it seemed like there were overflow seats in the shared lobby area (that has outlets!). It does get pretty loud inside on weekends so keep that in mind if you want to get some work done. Coffee was great and not too sweet - they were busy but drinks came out fast. I love my niche coffee shops and seeing all the merch they have out.
We typically stick to our usual drinks, but this time we ventured out and tried their Cold Brew and Smoked Cardamom Assam Latte, which had been highly recommended. We're so glad we did. The Smoked Cardamom Assam Latte was a unique and delightful surprise, and we finished it quickly. It was not "too out there," and was actually quite refreshing and tasty. The flavoring was light. Their Cold Brew was outstanding, offering a clear and clean taste. This coffee shop easily ranks among the best we've tried in the area. I only wish they had a presence in Southern California too, so we could enjoy their exceptional offerings more often. If you're in Portland, don't miss the chance to visit this coffee shop. You won't be disappointed.
great coffee & pastries! would recommend for those aspects. i love the area outside the shop for sitting on the nice day and reading a book. not the greatest place to sit down to catch up with a friend. not a ton of indoor seating but enough to make do!
I was craving coffee and found this place, with 20 more minutes before closing. Environment: spacious, lots of shapes and the colors are modern and stylish. They have lots of other merch around the side (their own ground coffee, cups, and chocolates). Staff: She was friendly and waited patiently for us as we decided what to eat. She also kindly answered our questions. Drink: I got an iced latte with 2% milk. It was not as strong as other brands but it was very refreshing, lighting, and smooth. I enjoyed it. The price was $5.50 which is a tad more than other coffee shops but that area seems fancier, too so I guess everything costs more there. Anyways, she let us stay until it was time for closing 4pm and thanked us before we left. It was a nice place to hang out and chill and you can also sit outside on a nice day!
I am a huge fan of their seasonal Horchata latte. It has been my summer favorite for the last few years. Good coffee is very aesthetic and consistent. Sometimes there is a line and the wait is a little long. The staff is very friendly and they are very well treated. It is very expensive at $7 for a latte with no modifications. I don't come often for this reason unless I have a very intense craving. There isn't a ton of street parking if you come after 8am fyi. The space is very clean and spacious with lots of light. Lots of seating indoor and outdoor.
It's a lovely summer day , they have great space to sit outside - the staff are very friendly and will painstakingly explain all their out of the ordinary lattes The cappuccino is exceptional From the moment I took my first sip, I was overwhelmed by the rich aroma and velvety smoothness of the drink A perfectly balanced combination of espresso, steamed milk, and frothy foam was a work of art in itself Ok I might gotten a little carried away but ya feel me
Phenomenal café! I loved the vast selections the café offers. Quiet place to study, and distress. Spent a few hours organizing my Spring and Summer schedule. I assure you will feel comfortable and content. Thank you
Had a quick coffee meeting here. This area is so cool, with the car-free streets and many neat trendy upscale businesses. Good Coffee has stark white decor with an abundance of wood and plants. It can be bustling inside, but they have plenty of bar stool seating, small tables, as well as an outdoor patio and also bonus seating in the interior alley between businesses. You order at the counter, and they call your name when it's ready at the pick-up counter. They have a selection of pastries and I think no prepared food. Prices are up there; my latte was $8. In my opinion, their seasonal specials are a must-order. I got the salted caramel latte and it was incredible. Very strong flavors of both salt and caramel, delicious. read more
Good Coffee does serve good coffee--but is it amazing? If it were, perhaps the name would reflect that. I've had several coffees from here over the years and found them consistently average. That said, their seasonal flavors are a nice touch and add some variety. Plenty of space but not as much seating. read more
Portland is known for their amazing coffee brewers and I took advantage of visiting as many coffee shops that o could during my stay there. Good Coffee was not just good, it was great! I ordered an iced Americano and from the first sip and inhale of the coffee aroma I was really impressed. The cafe was in Slabtown near restaurants and shops. They are known for their incredible staff, community feel, and one of the best coffee roasters in Portland. The shop is cute and I loved the green plants with white tile accents. read more

1. Cool location in sba town 2. Open modern airy. Big garage doors open up to the outside wirh plenty for seating at the wooden bar outside 3 food. - look at those pastries 4. Mocha made with high end chocolate. - not too sweet. More European style. Ans no milk in it so safe for lactose intolerant and dairy free folks 5. Only criticism is staff taking order keep putting his ah de on the top of the cup - not clean. He is ah slug. Money cash register etc and then touching your cup rim. I did mention it as a teaching moment but felt awkward in doing so. Hopefully is sorted for your visit. I would go again but ask for Fresh cup if happens again read more

Great coffee and tea with plenty of outdoor seating where you can be well more than 6 feet away from your closest neighbor. Speedy and friendly service. I originally ordered a Snow Jasmine over ice with almond milk and they promptly told me they were out of tea. The cashier offered other tea options that were similar and upgraded my drink with no charge to one of their seasonal specials, the matcha lavender latte with almond milk. I'm lactose intolerant so I try to avoid whole milk if I can. I believe whole milk is the default option and makes the drink richer. Milk options aside, wow, delicious. I drank it in no time sitting at one of the tables outside. Even with the plethora of coffee and tea options in Portland, I would recommend Good Coffee for their location and outdoor seating options. read more

Stumbled into Good Coffee for an afternoon pick me up. I was drawn to the smoked fig latte with allspice with oat milk. The coffee was smooth, and I could taste the smokiness. Unfortunately, I didn't get the fig flavor. It was a very good latte though. read more
Good Coffee is definitely one of my favorites in Portland. Chic and modern with outdoor and indoor seating, this is the perfect place for a chill afternoon or a coffee run in the midst of errands. Good Coffee always has seasonal drinks that are the ultimate *chef's kiss* - ranging from coffee to tea, you can't go wrong with anything. Their coffee is smooth and strong, and their specialty lattes are not too sweet - yet flavorful enough without it being just an ambiguous "sweet flavor". I got their horchata latte with oatmilk, and it was just comfort. The vanilla and cinnamon complemented each other so well and each time I took a sip, I just said "wow", and "oh wow", it's was unique, different, yet it worked. The staff was friendly and the cashier took the time to explain the menu to my out-of-town friends and explain their drinks and recommendations. While it may not be the cheapest cup of jo in town, it is worth it!! read more

The name says it all! Good coffee, good location, good service, good and safe seating options! And bonus for good merchandise - perfect for gifting or just for yourself! My fav coffee to order is a latte, extra hot with soy or oat milk. Good Coffee makes it smooth and satisfying to sip on while catching up with a friend. I don't mind indulging in a pastry either while sitting on the outdoor deck. Grab a cup of Joe at Good Coffee and enjoy! read more
I'd say something like "Good Coffee is as good as it gets" because the coffee and baked goods are top notch and it's a good place to sit and work, except the wifi seemed to be out of order (for me, at least). But I would definitely return and recommend this! read more
This place is my go to coffee spot when I'm in Portland! I love the outdoor seating area and they have indoor seating as well. My drinks always taste good and I really like their espresso. I got an 8 oz almond milk latte for $6, which id say is the average price for solid coffee in portland. The indoor area is clean, bright, and has lots of plants! I love catching up with friends here. Highly reccomend :) read more
My husband and I went here on a trip through Portland as we were looking at places that served oat milk and had unique offerings. I got the smoked dog oat milk latte and he got the pumpkin spice oat milk latte. With tip it was $15.50. My husbands was really strong flavored with the pumpkin, which was nice. No mistaking it for just a sweetened latte! My latte was good, but I really couldn't taste any smoke or fig, just more like a sweetened latte. It was a big disappointing because I was really interested in tasting fig in a latte. Nevertheless, the latte was good so I would be back. All the indoor seating was closed off which was a bit of a bummer. Plus, they serve oatly barista which is by far the most superior for lattes so that was a big plus! read more

I think Good Coffee was the best coffee I had in Portland. The horchata latte was my go to. I don't know if it really tasted like horchata, but it was still really good. If I lived in Portland, I probably would have tried their other coffees as well. They had some really interesting seasonal drinks that I had not seen anywhere else before. There's a really big garage door type wall that they open up on nice days. I guess a lot of places in Portland have that though. The outdoor area it opens up to is really nice to sit around and drink your coffee at. The employees for the most part were really friendly. They did however charge my card twice for one drink, so that wasn't cool. read more

I wanted to like this place but was left feeling unsatisfied. The atmosphere was light, clean and bright. I ordered a iced americano and a mocha, both were weak. The coffee was watered down with small sizes of brew. I prefer a robust blend not watered down swill. I will not be returning. read more

I absolutely love this coffee shop. I love how clean it is as well as the outdoor seating. They really have the whole social distance one way in and out down to a science. I absolutely love the matcha lavender latte. I think I bought 2 in one day as I was in town visiting a friend. I loved it so much that I actually bought the match they used to take it back home with me. The baristas are super cool and efficient. I loved the ambience. I will definitely come back every time that I visit Portland. Keep up the good work!.....see what I did there. Xoxo read more
