My boyfriend loves Heart Coffee and I'm glad it was as good as we remembered! The two baristas (who were found out are also from SoCal!) were so nice. They gave us a sample of the coffee slushie, which was delicious. I ended up getting a cardamom latte and it was fantastic. Even in a city with good coffee on every block, Heart still stands out as great coffee shop. read more

Okay their taste profile for the medium roast is a little fruity and maybe sour/bitter in its finish, but it's a really good espresso and they are a proper coffee shop. I don't know how someone gives a bad review for the choice of a palate because that's subjective like whether you enjoy any other flavor- some Love toffee some hate it, it being a note in espresso is a preference not the fault of a coffee bar. I read the bad reviews and went in with trepidation thinking maybe they don't know how to extract or be a competent barista but gosh it's just people not having an informed palate and dissing the establishment over a flavor note. So the service is great they do not ask sizes for a cap breve, which is the first sign they know what they're doing, and it was an adeptly made proper cappuccino, not my favorite notes but that's my problem not theirs. Ambiance is great, loved their minimalist wire decor. read more

I have been evolving into somewhat of a coffee snob lately and my sister told me Heart had her favorite coffee in Portland. I stopped by their cute shop on Burnside and was so impressed by the freshness and the flavors of the coffee that I had to bring a bag of beans home with me. They clearly know what they're doing and I will be making a point to bring my friends and family when they visit town. read more

Excellent cortado with oat milk and single origin espresso. This was my first stop after arriving in Portland for the weekend, and I'm glad I came. Other cafes in the city have a high bar to match! read more

Heart Roasters - Cortado - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The only place I've ever been to where I pay $5:50 for a "large coffee" then served a 12oz coffee and told it is large because the only other option they have is 8oz. Definitely seems like something to inform customers about before hand. There are so many better coffee experiences in town. Everywhere else that I've been to in town has 16oz coffee "large" for less than the price of your 12oz. The menu is misleading. read more

Quick Summary: - Coffee is slightly sour but not overbearing - Plenty of seats inside the cafe A colleague recommended me this cafe when I asked good coffee places to try in Portland. To where we were staying, this was almost a half day trip, but with public transportation rampant in this city, the trip wasn't tedious. The cafe isn't located in the main parts of Portland, but on the southeast side, more suburb. Inside the cafe is spacious with lots of booths and tables to sit. In the center of the cafe there was the counter to order. We ordered a cafe latte, a pourover, and a coffee cake. Generally, I'm not fond of the sour taste in coffee. While this one did have this flavor, it was faint than most. The mouth feel was lighter and refreshing as well. This paired nicely with the coffee cake, so overall it was a good coffee experience. read more

Very positive visit to Heart Roasters last Friday, what used to be a restaurant years ago, is now home to roasters. I had a cappuccino and it was very well presented in kind of a comfortable space, more business than pleasure with some outdoor seating, hurry then go quick. I purchased some beans from Kenya, yet to try at home. All & All ; The place is a bit cold in decor, but the coffee is hot. Really nice merch and service was knowledgeable and helpful. I will return for sure when I am in this area, this coffee house is better than most in PDX. read more

I never write reviews tbh. Only because if I ever do experience an issue, which isn't often thankfully, they always fix it the way it feels good for both the company and the customer. That said, I stopped into Heart Café after touring an apartment nearby; the space looked inviting and had a great atmosphere. People were chatting, music playing softly, sipping their coffee, and I immediately thought, "This could be my go-to spot." Unfortunately, the service didn't reflect the same warmth. When I approached the counter, the barista didn't greet me or make eye contact until I said hello first. I ordered an iced chai with pumpkin spice flavoring, light ice. After paying and tipping, the drink was handed to me within moments, completely full of ice, no lid, and overflowing. When I mentioned it was supposed to be light ice, the barista said, "That's right, light ice," then strained my drink through a cup, poured it back into my original cup, and added just a few of the same ice cubes back. What I got in return was a drink missing nea third of what I paid for. That is NOT okay. For nearly $7 for this drink (without tip). I expected better service and care for such a simple request. The café has a great vibe and potential, but consistency and customer service matter just as much as aesthetics. I deserve a refund. My visit was around 12:38pm and a gentleman with blonde somewhat longish hair helped me. Anyone who visits here, I hope your experience is not like mine and I hope this company does what's right whenever things like this come up and don't put half their energy in it. read more

Very limited options as far as versatility with coffee, which makes this coffee spot a big turn off . For an example, they don't have a blended ice machine, They only have oat milk. They don't have almond milk. They can only do very select drinks, which I guess makes it a lot simple for them... but when the coffee is not exuberantly great.. it's not something I would drive for or come back to. Coffee does have a unique taste? i dislike and like it at the same time. So overall I would give this a 5.5/10. It does look inviting , and aesthetic inside. I see potential in this place with the right investor. The guys taking the orders are very nice. read more

This is for the mail order coffee beans. They came to me very dry, very pale, and very small. Are they supposed to be like that? And the taste, while fruity, also had a strong stale taste. But, worst of all, they charge $20 on a good day for a small 16oz bag. I can't say anything about their store's ambiance, nor the service as I haven't contacted them. read more

This is a really cute place with lots of seating and great coffee. The baristas were nice and very helpful. It's a perfect place to come and study and or come hangout out with some friends. The only thing is they didn't have soy milk. read more

heart coffee is overrated garbage coffee is consistently bitter as well as sour . Consistently light roasted, which causes coffee to be acidic and sour.. Portland unfortunately seems to think it knows everything about coffee and food leading to overpriced garbage all over the city. I've been here for over 30 years and it's only gotten worse. There are much better coffee shops in Portland that will not rip your arms off for a $35 bag of coffee that's garbage at 10 oz. I'm sorry but you kinda have to be an idiot to pay 7 .50 for a double shot in what is now standard milk otherwise known as alternative. To want to throw your coffee out only after getting it people in Portland have absolutely no clue.. but this is the culture that has moved here so this will continue more about coffee shops, more greasy food more of the same read more

I've been coming here for ten years and I've always been impressed. This morning, my girlfriend and I had a really bad experience at a different coffee shop. We decided to go hang out at Heart to try to make up for it. The staff (as usual) was warm and welcoming. They invited us to do a cupping where we got to try great coffee, got free stickers, and they even gave us a free bag of coffee because we liked it so much. I will always recommend Heart to my friends and family. read more

Heart is one of my favorite roasters in the US and it's just as good in person. While this looks like it is just a coffee shop spot with no roasting on location it's cozy and the staff is friendly and they have stellar beans I fancy. Cold brew was a winner and the seating area is comfy with a good atmosphere. Top spot for sure when in the area. read more

Per a rec from a friend, I stopped into heart for a cappuccino and couldn't resist a slice of olive oil citrus cake. Staff were friendly and in no time I was set up with my treats, seating at a table alongside folks typing away on their laptops. Coffee was wonderful and the cake was perfect - I am still thinking about it days later and plotting my next visit. read more

Cute, trendy coffee spot! I love the vibe of this coffee shop! Hubby and I got iced vanilla lattes half sweet with oatmilk and they made it perfect! We also got the orange olive oil cake and bostock. At first look, the bostock was hard and not soft as I expected. But Wow! It was delicious!! The orange olive oil cake was moist and delicious too! read more

Don't believe I've had a better cup of coffee than at Heart. I got the cardamom latte and it was perfect. Coffee tastes super smooth and was not too sweet. I could drink a jug of this, but that would probs ruin my stomach. The pop tart that I got was really great as well. Loved the raspberry jam and the flaky texture of the pastry. Honestly don't think you can go wrong with anything here! Space is pretty huge with lots of seats and outdoor seating as well. Baristas were all really nice and gave me recommendations on which beans to get. Must stop if you're in Portland looking for amazing, no gimmicks coffee. read more

while heart might have not been my #1 absolute favorite roaster i visited on the great portland coffee tour of summer 2022, the folks working there were the most kind and helpful in allowing me to experience their coffee. what fun. i was intrigued by their coffee slushie (not my usual vibe at all, but when in rome, right?) when the guy in front of my ordered one with great fanfare, but i was suggested to stick to my usual (an oat milk cortado) to get a good apples-to-apples comparison. and to kick it up a notch, they offered to pull my drink as a one-and-one, a double shot split in two, one as espresso, one as cortado to let me get the full flavor. i played along, pretending i'd been given that treatment before, but in all my tasting, i've never had a shop offer that, and it was absolutely perfect and classy as hell. they also gave me a soda back, so while i had my hands full walking out the door, it was absolutely a stunning way to sip. full flavor. they even offered me a drip sip of that same roast, but i didn't want to overdo the caffeine for the day. they were super helpful in picking out a bag of beans for me to take home, and just all around really nice. thanks, guys! i'll be back!! read more

In my opinion, this is the best coffee you'll find in Portland. Typical of a third-wave roaster, Heart take time to understand the best way to roast and brew coffee. Their pastries come from Nuvrei, the best French baker in town, in my opinion. But Heart's cappuccino steals the show every time. Every barista does it so perfectly that this sets the bar for what ALL coffee should be like. read more

What a warm and inviting coffee shop mixing up great tunes and serving delicious drinks. All pre-covid of course, so make sure to check for details on shop policies. And always great to take it to go as well. First, their shop is large with tons of space. Next, the music is great and the songs eclectic. Their coffee is made with precision and care. I ordered the honey cardamom which was delightful. The stereo blend and different roasts are a must have if traveling from out of town or as a nice thank you gift to a pet sitter. read more

Sooo good!! Coffee was magic. I've been a long time fan of Heart Coffee - it's consistently delicious! I order their coffee beans online for my home brewing. So to visit their coffee shop in Portland was definitely a highlight of our trip. There was a long line, but they were hustling and getting our orders to us quickly. Drink menu was pretty standard from what you find at specialty coffee shops - which I enjoy. We got coffee, cappuccino, and a bag of coffee. Baristas were so kind and almost ethereal- if that makes sense :). A few tables scattered around for people to sit and chat. Loved the large space and a few historical pictures on the wall from their beginning days. Stop by for sure :)!!! And it's walking distance from other tasty restaurants as well. read more

Dropped by Heart Roasters for a quick coffee on a weekday and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was! I got my go to drink which is an iced vanilla latte and it was overall great -- the coffee flavor was deep and robust, though a taaad bit too acidic for my flavor. But otherwise, really good flavor. Service was helpful and friendly and parking the area isn't too bad. The only downside I see would be the price. I understand that quality coffee requires more time/effort but regardless this was stretching towards the high end of my personal budget for a small latte. Swing by if you're in the area for a good cup of coffee! Or pick up some beans to make your own at home~ read more

Heart Roasters was a great find and actually on my bookmarks to try for some great Portland coffee while I was in town. Luckily for me, I opened up my trusty Yelp app while waiting in line for Screen Door and found that Heart was literally at the end of the block. It's a short walk and hard to miss. There are bright, orange chairs located outside on the sidewalk, but inside is filled with seating too. Love that it's a casual environment, great for catching up with friends or if you're just there to enjoy your cup, and it wasn't overly noisy where you couldn't get any work done. Simple class menu with coffee, espressos, cold brew, and some of their specials list: heart drinking chocolate, honey cardamon latte, drip coffees, and plates of delicious pastries up at the counter. I opted for their honey cardamon latte and the heart drinking chocolate. Great presentation and love that my drink was decently sized. The presentation was cute with foam heart design (of course). The drink itself wasn't too bitter and the beans they used was not too dark. It wasn't an overwhelming taste of espresso that made you wish you put sweetener. It was a perfect balance of foamy milk, a hint of cardamon, and espresso. Heard some great things once I got home from my trip and got a couple of thumbs up that I went and tried Heart. It's not just your typical hipster coffee shop, but they actually have quality beans and serve cold brew. Add that to your list of caffeine highs if you're visiting! read more

Stumbled upon Heart while dropping a vehicle off for service. Great ambiance, wide open, warehouse feel, consistently busy but not over crowded.

Although I think I probably should have tempered my expectations a bit, I was pretty disappointed in the two bags of single origin coffee I brewed up from Heart roasters. Inconsistent and metallic tasting is how I'd describe my two bags. Like many aficionados, I have a coffee routine; or maybe you can call it a ritual: Burr grinder, pour over, filtered water, special kettle for that good temp over 195F, etc. The good side effect of such a ritual is that I can brew a consistent cup of coffee assuming the beans are good. I'd rate the Kenya Gachuiro AA as the better of the single origin roasts on offer here; but, the real disappointment was the Ethiopia Yukro. Overall, the taste of the Ethiopia Yukro was unpleasant mostly due to a metallic aftertaste--this sometimes is the result of an underdeveloped roast or older coffee beans. Perhaps I should have expected this given the overly earthy smell beforehand. I tried different waters (even bottled water), different grind sizes, and did my usual ritual a few different mornings. Overall, given the price of single origin beans these days, I wouldn't recommend these two mediocre coffees from Heart. It could have been just my experience but metallic tasting single origin beans are no good in my view. Sadly, I had heard good things about Heart and I've stopped in on trips to PDX but they still are no challenger to my usual favorite single origin roasters like Verve. Even more of a letdown was the price of my bad experience: 26.00$ for the Ethiopia Yukro and 29.00$ for the Kenya. read more

Portland has an amazing coffee scene and Heart Roasters is one of my favorite contributors. We accidentally ran into this place on our way to brunch at Screen Door and because the wait time was about 1.5h we decided to go back and have a coffee while we waited. The place inside is very third wave with a lot of seating and natural light. The coffee they serve is roasted to perfection and the barista skills are excellent (perfectly steamed milk, latte art - the whole package). The service we had was always on point. When we were there they brought the coffee to us, so please keep this in mind when tipping your barista. They have a fairly large selection of pastries, and obviously I went for the croissant. Croissant & Latte is a match made in Heaven. When I'm back in Portland I will definitely stop by! read more
