Coffee

So here is a chance to make recommendations and compare war stories. Where in Portland makes the best cup of joe, and which are nice and close to the conference center.

Yes some of us want more to life than Starbucks.

Close to the Conference Center

• This Coffee People is pretty decent: NE Grand and Lloyd, 4 blocks away, marker C. Unfortunately Coffee People has fallen to the evil empire and is now a Starbucks.

• Try J Cafe about 5 blocks away at 533 NE Holladay.

In the CBD

General

• Stumptown is a good bet (SW 3rd and Ash, Downtown, marker G)
• So is World Cup (NW 10th and Irving, Pearl District, marker I)
• Try a bubble tea at Tea Chai Te (734 NW 23rd Ave)
• The Coffee at the Spella Cafe on the corner of 9th and Alder is amazing
• Townshend Tea on NE Alberta St is a great option for amazing teas.
