Built in 1913, the building calls back to the city's early development, much like the commercial clusters just a block or few long that are nestled in so many neighborhoods.

Golden Child aims for a polished yet social atmosphere, resembling a members' club vibe without the exclusivity, making it accessible to all guests.

Mary's Club has been a staple of the Portland nightlife since 1965, known for its unpretentious vibe and family-run atmosphere, making it a unique fixture in the city.

Rowe and Garen Scribner's libretto takes its liberties, setting the action in a world where everything is green and an evil princess has ruled that nothing be eaten but peas.

Global Coffee Co. will aim to be the best coffee company in the world by combining global reach with local expertise to operate across all formats, segments, channels and price points.

The signature bar snack (or as the menu playfully puts it, "snak") here is Sinclair's riff on Chex Mix, which incorporates crunchy ramen noodles, almonds, and spicy-oily Sichuan chile crisp ($12). You'd be remiss not to order some of Sinclair's fluffy focaccia. I had it as part of the Rosemary's Other Baby plate, which came with a rosemary-laced tomato jam that the owner thriftily imparts added flavor from the bar's wine.

The project reimagines the new coffee space as a medium for the brand's story, allowing visitors to experience its history, production, and locality.

Toast said the analysis is based on same-store restaurant sales from January 2024 through December 2025 across a cohort on its platform, which served about 164,000 locations as of Dec. 31, 2025. The biggest declines through 2025 were found in green tea (-4.9%), black tea (-3.4%), hot drip coffee (-3.3%) and regular soda (-2.3%).

The DNA of a good dive bar isn't necessarily its menu, but its feel. It should be well-worn, the vinyl on the stools crackling like a dry lake bed on the verge of a rip. The soundtrack is familiar and at a volume that muffles nearby table conversation. The lighting is low, augmented by ambient string lights and flashes from arcade games. Drinks should be cheap. Yukon Tavern in Sellwood is a couple of those things, and more.

Moving to having a dedicated app for people's phones is something I've been planning for some time. The way of accessing the community is new, but the community has deep roots. Building on Roasting Lab's three-year run as a subscription-based professional development and networking hub, the apps are designed to make the platform easier to use day to day, extending its focus on community mentorship, guidance and practical advice for roasters of all skill levels.

Camp Coffee Shop offers a level of access and connection you just can't get at a big trade show. Instead of rushing between crowded booths and packed lectures, attendees spend real time working through their own business challenges with instructors and peers.

For me, cafes have long represented more than just necessary fuel to start the day. They are a place to relax, create, and connect, whether that be to yourself, the local environment, or friends. As a food scientist and professional baker who's worked as a barista, good coffee and pastries are also undoubtedly important - don't get me wrong. The best cafes not only invite you in; they invite you to stay.

Americans are drinking more coffee than they have in decades. But fewer of them are getting it from Starbucks. The company that revolutionized the United States' coffee culture remains America's biggest player, with nearly 17,000 U.S. stores and plans to open hundreds more. But it's facing unprecedented competition, which will make it harder to win back the customers it already lost.
