Upper Left Roasters

14 Best Coffee Shops in Portland, OR | Condé Nast Traveler

"Scandi decor, groovy music, creative types working away at their laptops: That's Upper Left Roasters. Clearly, quality coffee is the name of the game here; after all, you can see the roaster from the entrance. A great toast menu includes the requisite avocado toast, plus a few other iterations: there's one on spelt with poached egg, radish, and Mama Lil's peppers; another, also on spelt, is topped with cashew adobo spread, pepitas, cilantro, and scallions). All told, it's a great place to work while fueling up on caffeine and enjoying a mid-morning meal, and for meeting up with clients or colleagues." - Hannah Wallace
