40 LBS Coffee Bar

The 40 LBS Coffee Bar is a hidden gem in the heart of Portland’s coffee scene, offering high-quality espresso drinks in a sleek, modern setting. The café is particularly well-known for its strong, flavorful espressos and high-quality, single-origin beans. Regulars rave about the Brazilian espresso—smooth with a chocolatey finish—and the flat white, which strikes the perfect balance between espresso and steamed milk. 40 LBS also offers unique drinks like their Turmeric Latte and Matcha Latte, which are both flavorful and refreshing.

The café has a spacious interior with both indoor and limited outdoor seating, making it a great place to visit with friends or for a solo coffee date. The atmosphere is laid-back, with a clean, modern design and comfortable seating arrangements that cater to both individuals and small groups. 

Although it doesn't have the space for large groups, it’s perfect for a casual coffee break or a quiet moment with a book. The soft music and quiet buzz of conversation make it an ideal environment for relaxation or catching up on work.

Customers often mention the friendly service and attentiveness of the staff. The baristas are knowledgeable and always willing to make recommendations based on individual tastes.
