Måurice

Måurice is too popular to be as quaint as everyone says it is, yet the pace really slows inside this self-described "pastry luncheonette" as you grace your taste buds with one of Kristen Murray's Nordic-French creations. The menu changes daily, so we can't promise you'll get to try those same heavenly creations you've heard others rave about, but we're certain you won't be leaving disappointed.

Cafes

Portland is widely recognized as one of the premier coffee cities in the world, with its name being nearly synonymous with "coffee culture" both within the USA and beyond. Visitors can enjoy an exceptional cup of coffee at virtually any corner of the city, ranging from a traditional, robust espresso to a decadent Peanut Butter Fudge Mocha, which can be savoured at Jim & Patty’s Coffee.

Voodoo Doughnut

Voodoo Doughnut

Like Portland itself, Voodoo Doughnut doesn't hold back on whack and creativity in either flavour (their bacon-and-maple bar is a big hit) or product names (an "Old Dirty Bastard", anyone?). There's standing room only, and lines form easily, but the fun is worth it — despite the fact they no longer sell doughnuts with …

Deadstock Coffee Roasters

Sweedeedee

Sweedeedee is a cosy café much loved for its breakfast menu and house-baked pies. Don't come here if you're short on time, as it tends to get full …
