House-roasted coffee, massive pastries, & local art create cozy vibe
"University of Portland students love this colorful Willamette Boulevard cafe for its tucked-away nooks, free Wi-Fi, library-esque vibes, and tasty house-baked pastries. The house-roasted coffee comes in a wide range of drinks, from straight-up espresso shots to seasonal drinks like wintertime peppermint mochas. Pastries often include vegan options (think: cinnamon-sugar doughnuts and brownies). Customers can order ahead with the Rdy app." - Paolo Bicchieri
"A few blocks away from the namesake iconic gothic arches of the St. Johns Bridge, Cathedral Coffee is always bustling thanks to its expansive seating and floor-to-ceiling windows, which invite remote workers and students from the nearby University of Portland to spend hours relaxing and catching up on tasks. Cathedral started roasting coffee in May 2022, offering a wide array of single-origin roasts sourced from countries including Kenya, Rwanda, and Mexico. It all gets roasted out of the warehouse in St. Helens near the second café location in Scappoose. Cathedral sources its lineup from pastries including croissants and scones from local French bakery, La Provence." - Eater Staff
"A cozy coffee shop catering to locals and University of Portland students, Cathedral Coffee is an essential part of the St. Johns community. The large, cozily industrial space offers coffee drinks made with house-roasted beans and massive pastries. Alongside planet-sized cinnamon buns and baked apple fritters, the cafe offers savory and sweet breakfast turnovers as well as quiche. A few vegan and gluten-free options round out the pastries." - Rebecca Roland

Cathedral started roasting coffee in May 2022, offering a wide array of single-origin roasts with approachable names like Honey Melon (a floral Ethiopian) and Fruit Punch (a sweet Colombian). It all gets roasted out of the warehouse in St. Helens near the second café location in Scappoose, where the team bakes pastries for both cafes. It’s not uncommon to see the savory foldovers — a doughier panini riff — or a hearty quiche stuffed with bacon and roasted parsnips, sold out by noon." - Katrina Yentch, Nathan Williams
