ROSE CITY PARK, OG - Dorian in black (I bet he's reading, too - ask him for his top 3) FINALLY - a coffee shop that actually smells deliciously roasty - conspicuously close to Bakeshop (as in directly next door), pairings by preference. They care about my little dog too. Here's a Cortado that's short & STOUT! Beautiful with my Strawberry Scone, only downside is you may need 2 (Cortados, that is). Pastries are at your own risk... read more

Case Study Coffee - BAKESHOP + CASE STUDY CORTADO - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Super friendly staff, I bought whole beans and they offered to grind them for me, when I said no they asked what kind of coffee machine I use at home, more than just small talk, showed curiosity in learning more about coffee machines. Since I have a Jura E8 I use whole beans and it grinds as needed per use. Meanwhile, yeah Case Study is great ! read more

Clean, quirky coffee shop with friendly staff. I simply didn't enjoy my latte. I ordered a bourbon caramel latte and it tasted burnt with a heavy bourbon flavor that overpowered everything else. read more

Case Study on Sandy is rather roomy, yet cozy. The staff is friendly and the matcha latte was good. I didn't like the price so much. But I was able to study for a while so that made up for the price. read more

A weekly special visit from across town since I've moved out of the neighborhood speaks to how much I love Case Study and this particular shop. I've always been delighted by every drink, baked good, and customer service experience I've had here. Jordan and Victoria always make chatting and catching up feel like belonging to community. Case Study has the best seasonal and special syrup additions I've had from any spot around town. Solid and quality with good rotation. After an around town comparison it's my opinion that their peppermint mocha is tops! Pair this with one of their fantastic Sparrow bakery goods and you've got yourself a recipe for delicious! read more

Funky coffee shop with the right vibe. They were out of pastries when we came by. But the coffee was good.

Very solid roasters, great quality coffee. The setting is charming and the service excellent. Wish they did not add cream to the iced coffee drink my daughter ordered. Way too rich for her and seems like something they would have mentioned before adding. read more

Espresso, delicious! I haven't had a good espresso like that in a while. So balanced and creamy. Great working place with WiFi too

This used to be one of my favorite coffee shops. The lattes are decent, and they have a good selection of vegan and non vegan deserts. In addition their hazelnut flavoring is so good, it's like eating hazelnuts. There's also plenty of street parking. However, the music was so loud, that I wore earplugs, but that did not help a lot. People could not carry a conversation without yelling. When I finally could not concentrate on my school work, and asked the barista to turn it down, he refused. He said that he is closing and it gives him closing vibes... Huh! Isn't a business there to make money for the owners and not to entertain the Barista... I was going to call and talk to the manager, but I decided to stop going there. I am sad about that, but good customer service is important, and I don't want to support a business that does not respect its customers. read more

Case Study Coffee - I am going to think twice about coming here again. The music was so loud that we couldn't have a conversation... - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Their coffee always has a weird taste. At first I thought it's spoiled milk, but I switched to oat mild and it had the same weird sour taste, like something spoiled. Not sure what kind of coffee they use, but it's not for me :/ the little coffee cart in rose food park down the street always is a better choice for me. read more

I enjoyed spending my summer days here, great place to drink coffee and enjoy the time. Great selection for vegans! read more

Case Study Coffee - cookie Caffe Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Truth be told, I only come here when I am getting a pastry next door at Bakeshop, the best bakery in a Portland. They make good coffee, it's just I'm more of a dark, French roast coffee drinker. When I come here I usually get a latte and they are always delicious. Service is friendly. Place is clean. The vibe is rustic meets industrial with long wooden tables and metal chairs. It's light and bright inside. The place is always bustling with Lots of customers - friends meeting for coffee, people working, reading, hanging out while enjoying their beverage. This stretch of NE Sandy has other shops of interest. Bakeshop next door, the Bike Shop on the other side and Rose City Food Truck Park right there as well. read more

A really nice place to get some baked goodies and a coffee. We were in Portland back in 2018 and had our flight back in a couple of hours so we decided to stop here and get our caffeine fix so we can easily sail through the rest of the day. Easily got parking near an outside street. The server was really friendly. We ordered a cappuccino and a coffee walnut cake. Both were simply delicious. The ambience was really nice. There were quite a few people sitting and working on their art projects or on their laptops. Bathroom was really clean too. Overall a great spot to get your caffeine fix. Highly recommended. read more

Delicious jasmine matcha latte over ice !!! Definitely recommend for a nice pick me up or a great start to your day

I went here last Sunday and the barista was just kind of rude to me. I would've understood if it was a rush but there was no line or anything so I didn't understand why. Maybe it was just an off day? The americano I got was also very acidic and I barely drank it /: but didn't want to bother them about it. I only gave it 2 stars because I had a good experience another time I came here when there were different people working... read more

So is this a coffee shop, or an indoor dog park? We dropped in for coffee and scone a couple weeks ago and were enjoying quiet conversation, when a young couple came in after us, with their dog on a leash. They grabbed a table near the barista and sat down with their dog under the table. Two minutes later, another person who respects neither other people, or food service law, walks in with another dog, and starts to order. Well obviously, the two dogs start barking at each other and trying to lunge at each other, scattering chairs, and creating a less than pleasant morning for everyone else. So what does the counter guy do? Oh naturally, he leaves his post, and brings out dog biscuits. What the hell? This is illegal. You can lose your business license. Fast forward a couple weeks and we decide to try again. Walking in the door we notice two dogs already in the store. No thanks! Turned around and went to Fleur de Lis a few blocks away and had a better breakfast surrounded by people and no dogs. Leave them at home, Take them to the park. Not everyone loves your mutt. read more

Drink itself was amazing, friendly staff and speedy service despite being busy. Ambiance is great and amount of seating is just right. Can't wait to go back and try other things! read more

Case Study Coffee - Cortado with almond milk and honey lavender syrup - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Classic coffee with serious baristas. Lovely old school vibe. Great place to get some work done and people watch.

Strolling down the street and stumbled upon this place. Walked in and immediately fell in love with case study coffee. Not too big of a coffee guy but beans are freshly roasted and has blends from columbia, Ethiopia, and costa rica. I ordered a latte and my mom had the drip coffee and flavors of it was amazing. The worker in the front helped us guide through the menu and what beans were used for each drink which was super nice of him. The shop itself is a great place to work, catch up, or do business meetings. Wasn't super dead quiet but also wasn't loud where you can't focus. Great place overall. read more

I love Case Study. They have excellent coffee. The space is very comfortable with tall ceilings and big windows. Kind and helpful staff. I love to sit outside when the weather is nice enough read more

Super pleasant barista, excellent brew! I love this coffee shop. My almond milk Leyte was creamy and fortifying on a cold sunny day. Plants all around make for healthier air quality too. read more

Stopped by after spending the night in Portland on a road trip to grab a quick coffee before heading on out. I was a bit disappointed to see the only baked goods left when I got there were biscuits and cookies, was hoping for a croissant, but skipping the carbs doesn't hurt anybody. I grabbed a coffee and a bag of their coffee as well to try at home and was very happy with the roast. A great well balanced coffee! The vibes in the space itself are impeccable, I dropped in on New Years Day and the residual holiday decorations were so pretty! I loved the plants too. I would totally see myself working here if I lived in Portland. There is free street parking up and down the street read more

Probably once was the best cup Of coffee in Portland. Through the pandemic this was one of the most strict coffee shops in Portland. At one point they were a credit card only shop. I was glad to see that they started accepting cash again. I went in today 12/8/22 for an 8oz latte. They wanted $6.25 for an 8oz coffee. I don't know if they are having a donkey haul the beans from South America or why they would think their coffee is double the price of most other stores. Right down the street you can get a 12 oz latte for $4.00. And quite honestly down the street is more friendly and wants your business. My suggestion is to find another shop that doesn't rip you off. read more

Case Study is a nice and bright, light-filled coffee shop located on Sandy on the eastern edge of Hollywood. There is ample seating at a communal style table in the center of the room, as well as several smaller tables. The folks here know their coffee! You can tell just by the delicious aroma as you walk in the place, they serve quality coffee. Indeed, I've never been dissatisfied with my order. This portion of Sandy can be a little busy, and parking might be an issue. But there are plenty of neighborhood streets where you can find a place to park either to the north or south of Sandy. I'm always happy to see local art in coffee shops, and Case Study does a great job rotating local artists through this location. I've discovered several of my favorite artists because they were featured here. read more

Ordered a cappuccino, and it was very creamy. The espresso they chose to use was very smooth with almost no bitterness. They latte art that they completed was beautiful. And the customer service was awesome. read more

One of my favorite coffee spots in Portland. Coffee is always good, and option flavors are nice and subtle. Not overly sweet. It's also next to a great bakery so it's a nice stop in the weekend. Staff is also super nice at this location so that's a plus! read more

I picked up some lattes on a rainy Saturday, & the coffee was tasty & the barista was friendly. The dining room is still closed, but it looks like a great place to get some work or studying done. The pastry case included gluten free (GF) options!! I didn't explore the neighboring shops due to rain, but it seems like a trendy part of town. I'd definitely go back & try a different drink & a pastry! read more

The coffee is good and the employees are super friendly. However, I'm confused about the constant parade of dogs in the store. First off, dogs right next to my food is yucky. Secondly, there is no way that's allowed. read more

I want to give a big shout out to Eric! I had just walked out of cosmic monkey comics and wanted to get a cup of coffee. Unfortunately Case Study was closed. My family had gone to the another store near by but needed a few more minutes. I sat down at the bench outside Case Study and took advantage of this opportunity to read. While reading Eric walks out of the shop and asks me if I would like anything. A little caught off guard, I asked for a cold brew. A few moments later Eric walks out with my coffee and I gladly thank him. I wanted to highlight this random act of kindness and hope to return to Case Study during business hours. Thanks again Eric! read more

Case Study Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Very good coffee and tea just a bike shop and comic book store down from the Rose City Food Park and next door to Bakeshop, NE Portland's finest bakery. Case Study is a clean, well-lit, and friendly place -- reasonably quiet with a more or less studious clientele. Maybe it's the layout and spacing of the tables and chairs, or the large front windows, or the cafe's name, but Case Study seems to attract a bunch of mostly nice people busily minding their own business while they work away or pass the time on their laptops. Great atmosphere. Free wifi. A pleasant place to sit and relax. As for their coffee, Case Study roasts their own beans in small batches. They make an excellent cappuccino, and their house drip blend is a real treat. read more

I think they make good coffee here, I just don't care for it. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's not good. The place does a brisk business and there are always tables full of people visiting, reading, working, sipping. Here's my thing, maybe it's not your thing. The coffee here has a acid, floral quality that I just dont like. I prefer dark, bold French roast style. I find that light bitterness in the latte, too. However, here is the reason I won't mind going back if I'm with someone who insists .... that almond milk hazelnut latte we had the other day was wonderful. I'll just get that. Large room with great tables. Good windows and light. Adjacent to my favorite Bake Shop and Cosmic Monkey, two doors down from my bike shop. Parking is usually easy. It's got everything except coffee I like. Oh well. read more
