Coffee By Design

Quaint little café that makes a stellar dirty chai. Nice selection of pastries and baked goodies as well with a really chill and relaxing atmosphere. This location was a stone throw away from the Black Elephant hostel where we spent the weekend. It was the start to my mornings. Strong recommend.

Travelling from out of town, this place is really cute! Their summer specials are well-designed, I would definitely come back if I was in Portland again :)

I found the place that I'm going to get coffee the rest of the time I'm in this area. The staff was super nice and the coffee made perfect for my taste.

Interesting play on words, Coffee by Design (CBD), prolly great for SEO marketing too - kinda brilliant actually. The girl who took my order was super sweet, but the girl in grungy clothes (b&w striped shirt) was making fun of me with her co-worker and how I couldn't understand what she was asking. I saw her body language and what she was saying was kinda mean. No offense but some people can't hear that well when you're speaking with a mask on - it's muffled. So shame on you for hiring someone like that. She clearly needs a lesson in not bullying customers. Cute cafe and lots of great bakery items. I never found out if they make the bakery items there or buy them local. I tried the chocolate donut and it didn't taste like other chocolate, chocolate glazed donuts - it was so good, and fresh. I ordered an 8oz white chocolate mocha latte. That hit the spot. The WiFi name is "Coffee.... Guest" and then "roasteroftheyear."
