If you love experimenting with different coffee flavors, The Coffee Lab PDX is the spot for you. This café has a modern, minimalist design with a science-inspired theme, making it a fun and unique place to grab a drink. The space is open and bright, with plenty of seating for solo visitors and small groups. It’s not the best spot for big groups, but the outdoor seating adds a little extra room.

The menu is packed with creative drinks, but their Lavender Vanilla Latte is easily one of the most recommended. It’s smooth, floral, and just the right amount of sweet. Their Nitro Cold Brew is also a big hit—super smooth and packed with flavor. If you’re into non-caffeinated drinks, their Golden Turmeric Latte is a great choice. They serve fresh, locally sourced pastries, with their blueberry scone and savory hand pies being customer favorites.

Many visitors are impressed by the attentive and knowledgeable baristas, who are always happy to suggest drinks based on your taste. Reviews consistently highlight how well-trained the staff is, making sure every order is spot on. Even when there’s a line, service is quick and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed, with soft indie music playing in the background, adding to the chill vibe.
