21 Distinctive Portland Cafes That Roast Their Own Coffee
"With spacious greyscale interiors and sleek bar equipment, it may be a little intimidating initially to step inside Guilder; the portrait of Andre the Giant on the wall will calm the nerves within a few minutes. For home brewers looking to drink black coffee and compare tasting notes on retail bags, Guilder has packed shelves of bright and complex coffees from Latin America and Asia under the moniker Juniors Roasted Coffee. Alongside standards like cortados, filter coffee, and cold brew, the menu includes an impressive slate of vegetarian fare, from burritos to jackfruit vegan chicken salad. The storefront’s changing display of the daily market cost of coffee also exemplifies the company’s commitment to price transparency, as well as a livable wage for coffee producers. Guilder also operates a more colorful café inside the downtown Powell’s City of Books." - Katrina Yentch, Nathan Williams
