Fehrenbacher Hof

This is the cutest coffee shop and you have to find it. We went when the leaves were falling and say outside. There is a backroom like a nook with tables as well as seating inside. We got the breakfast burrito with vegetarian sausage. The flavor was so good. My wife got the breakfast sandwiche with corned beef and it was too die for. The corned beef was tender with tomatoes and cheese. We also got the traditional breakfast sandwiche with reuben sauce and cheese. There is a good selection of pastries. You can get your traditional coffee drinks. We got a hot and cold peppermint mocha. We also got the iced latte with cherry and vanilla. You need to try this little coffee shop. As we were leaving we were told there is an upstairs area. Very cute and quiet.

I regularly forget that this place exists and then rediscover it again. Absence makes the heart grow fonder! It really is a lovely coffee shop that feels timeless in a way that a comfortable coffee shop should, one of those gentle eddies in the Portland flow.

Being a travel lover, this is the most fun mix of German and Portland decor! The food (breakfast burrito) is amazing and full of flavor and the maple latte truly tastes like maple syrup! A local spot with regulars known but name, babies and pets, and cozy tables in back and out front.

My favorite cafe when I’m in the mood for warm, cozy vibes and warm, cozy hospitality. The morning crew are super nice folks. I love their breakfast burrito and bfast sandos! I also enjoy their decaf espresso for my lattes (it’s hard finding good tasting decaf!)

Pretty delicious food and cute coffee shop. For me, the breakfast sandwich and burrito stole the show here. The coffee was decent, but maybe not my favorite I’ve had here in Portland. The pastry (cinnamon stick) we got was also pretty tasty, though a bit dry at points. Overall, definitely one of the best breakfasts we had in Portland in a coffee shop and very nice ambiance with kind staff! Also, super reasonable prices!

Stopped in for a quick breakfast and got the wrap. It was good enough but nothing to scream about. There was one person doing everything for the shop and they were doing a good job but it didn’t leave much time for pleasantries.

I usually enjoy the small, quaintness of this shop… it had been my local favorite for quite some time. However, as of lately it seems something is off. The service has significantly decreased- can’t get my name right, offer a greeting, and not to mention my coffee continues to be made poorly. Worse than Starbucks & Dutch bros the past few times. I’ve been tipping 20% & coming back in hopes for a better experience… but time and time again, I’m saddened by another poor experience being repeated. Is it because the other coffee shop has opened up down the street? Guess that’s where I’m going to begrudgingly take my business. If only the Hof could get their stuff together and offer me some delicious coffee again… 😮‍💨

This place is really amazing, cozy and I loved it. Now (fall season) is the best season to visit this place and have a hot coffee and breakfast. Menu is simple and cute and place is really really cute and loved it a lot. We can sit outside too, but I would prefer in summer. We had breakfast and coffee and I loved the place. Food price is really affordable and the place is really clean.

Excellent location in a neighborhood. The neighborhood must love it. Very good espresso. Tasty snacks. Grateful to find this place.

PROBABLY THE BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH I'VE EVER HAD. This place needs more recognition. My vanilla late (asked for kids temp) was also PERFECT. Like so good. I'm so glad we chose to try this place out! Also such a cute spot to hang out or work! Ppl were cool too. Ppl serving us were also v nice!

Place is so cute. Small but very cozy has a real good vibe. Coffee is tasty and always served with a smile. I also had the breakfast burrito which was nicely filled - not too big but still filling. The pastries are yummy as well. So if you like me and have a dentist appointment this is a good place to reward yourself :)

This place used to be really cute, but it's gone downhill. Such a shame to see! Feels dirty, dingy, and unloved. Lots of broken and dirty stuff on the walls and all over the place.

Nearby a friend's spot and needed a place to work remotely. Came in right before open on a weekday and it was pretty slow in the morning. The place legit looks like an old two store house, so that's about how much space you can expect. Upstairs wasn't open while I was there. But I was able to find a nice quiet spot around the corner from the counter. Not a ton of outlets, but it wasn't like looking for a unicorn either. Internet was able to support a zoom meeting any basic emails. Food options were limited, mostly just a breakfast sandwich, breakfast burrito, and some pastries. I got the breakfast sandwich and it was pretty good. The English muffin was soft on the outside but still crispy on its face. All in all, a great low-key quiet study/work spot for the morning at least. Would definitely come back in the future

Great little spot for coffee and a delicious breakfast sandwich that is saucy and full of flavor!

This is such a cute cafe I stumbled upon while on my trip to Portland. The breakfast sandwiches are so good! My bf and I had to order another one lol. The chai latte was delicious as well! The service was great, and they were very generous. They have small tables to sit and enjoy our food and with outlets in some areas to do work. When I visit Portland I will definitely be back.

I love everything about the aesthetic of this place, and they make a damn fine Caramel Turtle (or so says my wife). It's just a shame that the baristas were so aloof and disinterested in engaging in anything resembling pleasant conversation; it was all business, and business...wasn't good. They were also out of Kahlua syrup, which meant no Drunken Monkey, which is what my wife initially ordered, so it really should have been wiped off the chalkboard menu. As this was our first visit, and we'd just eaten at the Goose Hollow Inn next door, we didn't sample any sandwiches, burritos or any of the breads and pastries (all of which look incredible). Maybe next time, when we're in the area, hungry, and not feeling particularly conversational.

The people are great ... food and coffee very unique and tasty - all made on the premises ... the egg sandwiches are bursting with flavor and the pastries are never too sweet.

Super adorable spot right opposite the Goose Hollow MAX station. Being slightly off the main street makes this the perfect hideaway spot. The inside is tiny but made cozy with wooden decors and a vintage pastry showcase. No indoor seatings and only a handful of outdoor spots but on a relaxing day this is just what you need. Their menu offers a variety of classic and fun drinks. Food menu is now only limited to breakfast sandwich and burrito but both were pretty dang good. Especially the sandwich. They know how to toast their English Muffin here. Also, how can you say no to the crispy cheese edges. Yummy sauce with a slight kick, pairing well with the rich house corned beef. Definitely would drop by again for the vibe and tasty treats.

Great coffee and fresh baked goods, love this place!! Banana bread and breakfast sandwiches really good.

Car in the shop so I walked around the block for a cappuccino and a muffin. Wow! Really well made cappuccino, and I'm a snob about foam. "It's a cappuccino, not a latte!" Muffin wasn't all dried out or overly sugary. I'm super impressed. I hope to be in the car shop rarely, but when I am I'll be stopping here every time.

Great little family-run, neighborhood coffee shop. Excellent variety of teas, pastries and coffee drinks

This was an a grreat find. We were headed to NW 23rd, but worried that any place near there. would be too busy on Sunday. This place was perfect it was right off the freeway and close to the Goose Hallow Max line. It is located in a charming historic house. They had creative espresso drinks. I had a coffee that had banna and kaulua syrup, and a breakfast burritto. Both were delicous.

Was in the area and in search of a little caffeine. Strolled in over to Fehrenbacher Hof. It's a converted house and the inside section was closed due to COVID. No matter, they have a window outside to place your order. There were a couple of people in line in front of me and a couple of people waiting for their order on the sidewalk. Everyone was wearing masks and keeping a distance. I ordered their Chai Tea Latte. They gave me the option of spicy, sweet, or a little of both. A little of both, please. Short wait and my drink was delivered. Very good and hit the spot. My partner said his coffee was excellent. I would like to return to try more.

Stopped by here for a midday chai, and then realized they had a lot of fun flavors for Italian soda, so got one of those too. Staff were polite and there was a fluid system for ordering and getting drinks. Their "spicy" chai was honestly not all that spicy. I'd say the flavors were on the more muted side, but it was perfectly balanced in terms of not being too sweet. The hazelnut Italian soda was great. Super refreshing and not artificial tasting. They also kindly gave us a cup of water. Street parking was easy and prices were reasonable.

This was a delight. We had a breakfast sandwich, burrito, cinnamon twist, and a chi tea. All very excellent. Chill vibe, nice staff. The tea was a little small but that is just being very picky.

Coffee is okay here - nothing special but solid. The breakfast burrito was not my favorite, and I would not order it again. I didn't enjoy the use of sour cream in the burrito and overall it lacked flavor. However, the almond bar is something I would come back for. If you're a fan of almond pastries, you have to try this. As of today, they are also still closed for indoor dining, so you order outside at a window.

I necessarily wouldn't go back I feel like they welcome people not of color more so that being said the service I got compared to other people in the store was a huge deciding factor on my choice of not going back and star amount . But yeah you get

Super fantastic place. Nice coffee, a good breakfast burrito, and an organic atmosphere.

I don't want you to know about this tiny coffee spot next to Goose Hollow Inn and right off the Goose Hollow MAX stop because it is tiny. They offer standard delicious coffee drinks and baked goods, AND they make this breakfast burrito that consistently makes me a better person all around. It's not even that complicated - potatoes, eggs, cheese, sour cream, pico but for some reason it is seriously lovely. Expect a wait because it's tiny. And it gets overwhelmed with high school students at certain times as you can imagine. Did I mention it's tiny? There's a tiny study room in the back as well. But if you need java and baked goods and are in the neighborhood, stop in!

Love to eat the corned beef hash sandwich and just recently tried the breakfast burrito version. I love that one too!! Coffee is great and I love coming here

25 minutes for a breakfast burrito and latte, I'm absolutely dumbfounded. There were three people in front of me and two food items to choose from. You can have the breakfast sandwich or burrito. I placed my order, sat down in the adjacent room and waited and waited and waited. I got up to make sure they didn't already call my name around the 8 minute mark, even though I was the only person in the store at this point and didn't see any new customers. Around 10 minutes I got up to get my coffee when they finally said large latte. No apologies of course or reason for the 10 min latte. 15 minutes after my order, I'm still the only customer and I go up to the counter and ask if they are still working on my bfast burrito (mind you, there are two employees working). At this point, I genuinely thought they forgot. But they assured me it was coming right up. 25 minutes later I get my burrito. How do I know the time? Because I get a text message when I make purchases on my card. So, from the time I received a text for my burrito and latte purchase, to the time I got my burrito, 25 minutes had passed. I could have ordered and eaten a steak at El Goucho in that time. How was the food you ask? The burrito was very pedestrian and to add insult to injury, the latte was honestly the worst I've ever had. I didn't know lattes could taste so bad. I wanted to throw it away but I needed the caffeine and it gave me something to do while I waited for my epic burrito. Not sure about all the great reviews but this was my experience anyway.

The Hoff is what all coffee shops in Portland want to be when they grow up. Great pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and 4+ drop coffees available at all times. Housed in a victorian house, the coffee shop used to be (or maybe currently owned) by Bud Clark the coolest mayor Portland has ever had. I've lived in NW for 12+ years and the best reason to travel down to Goose Hollow (besides the Inn Of course).

Could I love this coffee shop more? I don't think so. I felt like I was teleported to New England after having been in a bustling city just minutes before. The hubs and I really needed some caffeine after a long day of travel and some sightseeing and this was the closest place to come up on Yelp. Thank you! I absolutely loved the old details of the home this cafe is located in. The staff was telling me it was formerly someone's residence and they sold it to the owners of The Goose next door, who then opened the coffee shop. I was given a whole teapot, which I'm a sucker for, and we took our drinks to the front porch. It was the absolutely perfect Fall weather which made this very cozy, tree-lined location even better! I even had a vanilla milkshake which was bomb and nice and thick. I wish I could transport myself here once a week.

Fehrenbacher Hof is a charming coffee house that also serves sandwiches, soups and bakery items. There are gluten free and vegan options available. The entire house, which is early 20th century, is available for guests to enjoy. The outdoor front patio area is quite pleasant and has overhead heating. We visited " the Hof " for the first time today and unfortunately it did not go as well as expected. The man at the counter was rather unpleasant. I inquired about several of the drinks on the menu but he really wasn't interested in trying to help me. So I chose to order a maple latte and a drunken monkey. The man who prepared our drinks was much nicer and chatted as he worked. When I tasted my drink it was awful. There was no coffee flavor at all. It really didn't taste like much of anything. So I tried my friend's drink thinking it might be better. But neither drink tasted good. My friend agreed with me so we left unhappy. Maybe it was just a bad day for us to visit so we might try it again sometime. Their bakery items did look quite good.

Sitting here on the front porch on a Sunday morning, it feels like your best friend is inside cooking for you. Burrito was excellent. My wife said about the sandwich: "It was really good. I like the tomatoey sauce that was on top. I don't really know..." That's a 5-star review IMO.

Everything is awesome. I ate the breakfast sandwich it was unbelievable delicious, just to be honest a little fatty!

This is a very cozy and peaceful coffee shop and restaurant in a converted older house. They have soups, sandwiches and burritos, and the people working there are very nice. There are two levels of seating and lovely window views. It's a calm environment, excellent for relaxing, studying, thinking, etc.

I almost want to keep this place a secret but in the interest of humanity I'll let the word get out: this place is your sweet european grandma's house. 1) It literally is a house and the seating is broken up into separate rooms including an upstairs and outside tables 2) My breakfast sandwich wasn't exactly what I expected it to look like but it TASTED like the best avocado/tomato/cheddar sandwich ever plus an egg; super rich and buttery and filling, plus the apple slices on the side actually paired really well. 3) The maple latte was just sweet enough and came in a huge cup even for a small 4) Free wifi and lots of seating options so it's a great place to get work done. Sadly the outlet near me didn't work though. I wish they were open later--I would come after work!

Cute, but sadly that's all there is to say. This place is too busy for their own good. I waited 50+ minutes for a coffee and breakfast burrito. There was one single person working and over 15 customers. It's just too busy for a little corner coffee store.

barista unfriendly. didn't tell me i was buying iced coffee when i ordered cold brew. it's not so scary to be nice big guy

Cute place in a craftsman house right across from the Max station. Great little breakfasts burritos especially once you've selected one of the sauces from their large hot sauce collection. We got hot tea and it came in a large cup that was great too carry around in the cold morning. We were lucky enough to get seating at a table right by a window. Seating was very limited as the upstairs area was closed and we were there fairly early.

Don't depend on them. I'm a local that lives very close and they have let me down at least twice. I would walk over depending on a breakfast burrito before work but as I walk up around 7:30 am they are always closed even though online says they are open at 7. What a trick. They also have slow service.

Cute little house coffee shop! It's super close to the MAX. 1 min walk from the stop. Got a ham biscuit sandwich which was super yummy. There was a tomato cream sauce on it that was bomb! :) there's a couple of small tables on the first floor and outside. If you need more room upstairs is the way to go! There's a bunch of housemade pastries! It was so hard to decide.. but ended up with some delish brownie! If you like your pastry toasty... they'll heat it for you! Got a chai latte..there's 2 options: sweet or spicy. I got the sweet one which was really good! I'll try the spicy one next time!!

One of my favorite coffee and breakfast spots in Portland! I highly recommend the veggie sausage burrito and corned beef breakfast sandwich.

Such a lovely and cosy place! We had pastries galore and out of this world breakfast burritos. The coffee was excellent and they were happy to accommodate custom drinks! The seating upstairs is great for working, downstairs for reading and outside for everything!

Great coffee and even better breakfast sandwich! I go all over Portland for coffee and this will be one of my new go tos for sure! Highly recommend the honey latte and corned beef hash sandwich! Can't go wrong for breakfast here and a nice little seating area next door.

Hole in the wall coffee shop ,you have to actually know it exists to be able to locate it as its not quite noticeable from the street . Inside , its a cute and cozy joint with friendly service. They have small rooms spread across two floors ,so there is plenty of seating .There were a number of groups of people just sitting and talking , playing games or working on their laptops ,so I am assuming it caters to a wide clientele . Their coffee was good and the bakery products fresh. I spent a few hours there and loved the vibe and atmosphere of this place.

I came here for breakfast while visiting a friend in Portland. It was close to where she lived and she really recommended it. The place is cute and cozy with a nice vibe to it. There's plenty of seating if you want to join others for brunch. I ordered an iced coffee (delicious) and the breakfast burrito. The burrito was huge and satisfied my exact craving.

Fabulous place to come have a dessert and a coffee. Plenty of room and interesting spots to settle into. I like the variety of desserts. I haven't tried their coffee yet but I'll definitely be back

Delicious coffee but rude staff. This coffee shop is set up inside an older Portland home and has good ambiance when you walk in. When you walk in you however are not greeted by the staff or even really acknowledged! After ordering a couple coffees and some food there was a bit of a wait for everything to be ready. The coffee was delicious and very well made. I had asked for a not so hot and was very pleased how it came out. The food was alright and was delivered by yet another grumpy employee. Not sure if everyone here hates their job or what the deal is. I won't be going back, which is really too bad because the coffee was great!

At first glance, you wouldn't think Fehrenbacher Hof would be as awesome as it is. We were recommended this coffee shop by our AirBnB host who said this was his favorite spot. The inside is very quintessentially Portland - grungy and filled with antique furniture & decor. Not touristy at all - definitely a local's joint! We wanted to grab a quick bite to share nearby before dinner and also caffeinate and man, this place really knocked our socks off! The cold brew was really delicious and my friend had the white chocolate raspberry latte drink, which was very well executed! The real winner here was the TUNA MELT. WOW. Honestly wasn't expecting much because...it's a tuna melt. Not that exciting, right? Seriously, this one changes the game!! The rye bread was perrrrfectly toasted and the tuna salad used was soooo delicious. They use almonds and cranberries and local albacore tuna. SO SO GOOD. My friend and I said that this was definitely one of the best and most memorable things we ate during our trip. Strong statement. There was one employee working when we stopped in who was doing it all: barista-ing, manning the register, and making the food. MAD PROPS to her. Will definitely be back to have that sandwich again (or maybe try one of the others!)

This is my absolute favorite coffee shop in Portland--and as a high school student I've been to a few (too many English essays, am I right?). Their service is sometimes good, and is more often great; food and drinks great too, and reasonably priced! I'd highly recommend the Charlotte's Web sandwich, as it's both filling and under $5. All of their pastries are fresh baked (no older than a day), and the lemon poppyseed muffin is a personal favorite. Don't be afraid to explore the upstairs--up that worn red staircase is a collection of the comfiest chairs you will ever encounter in your lifetime. There is fast, free WiFi (*cough cough Starbucks cough*) and there are multiple MAX and Trimet stops super near by. Oh and the music is top notch too! Nice and quiet upstairs though, if you have yet another essay to write. Seriously. We should start a petition. Been here countless times since I started high school, and it never fails to blow me away. Feels like home away from home :) Don't miss it!!!

During my week-long stay in Portland this place quickly became my favorite go-to breakfast spot. Their breakfast sandwiches are amazing, I tried some of the vegetarian ones as well as the corned beef ones and was always impressed. Their pastries are very scrumptious, I've tried their savory turnovers as well as their apple turnover, and almond bar. My favorite was the almond bar, very sweet and packed with flavor. They almost always had four different coffee brews to choose from and had a spread of Honey, simple syrup, cane sugar, regular sugar, cocoa, and cinnamon powder to add to your coffee. I felt like I could always make my coffee exactly how I felt like having it each morning. On top of this, I felt like I could joke with the staff because they were all so friendly and familiar feeling. I highly recommend this Cafe, plus they have tons of space downstairs and upstairs with a variety of seating types so you're always comfortable no matter how many people are in your group.

An adorable hole in the wall coffee shop with great food, friendly counter staff and delicious coffee. I had their house made corned beef breakfast burrito. The corned beef had a crisp on the end, with a delicious sauce that was creamy and went SO well with the eggs. This place is a hidden gem. :)

Excellent breakfast sandwiches and really good coffee. Obviously related to Bud Clark's restaurant next door, the Corned Beef breakfast sandwich was awesome. Have to agree with the other reviewers who recommend this place.

I'm a fan of the "house as a coffee shop" concept, so this cute little place is right up my alley. Had a great latte, good granola, and there's plenty of space upstairs so sit and get some work done. Interestingly there seems to be quite a mix of people coming here, which again I'm a fan of; I spanning from a group of high schoolers doing math upstairs to two professionals going over what looked like a quarterly cost projection downstairs. Interesting indeed.

This is a great little hidden spot around the corner from the Goose Hollow Inn that makes BOMB DIGGITY breakfast sandwiches. Allow yourself about 10 minutes as they are made fresh and they are WORTH IT. Super friendly service and fast wifi if you want to stay and get some work done, too (plus 2 hour parking so you don't have to pay - mega score!)
