My partner and I stopped here on our way somewhere else this morning. I was looking for a cute coffeeshop with good offerings and this place looked promising. We arrived around 11am and ordered to go. We were greeted pretty quickly and placed our orders with a barista. She was super friendly and got to work on our order immediately after we paid. I got a decaf iced pumpkin pie latte and the Max Croissant Special. My partner got a pumpkin muffin and a hot chocolate. We took a seat at a table while we waited and looked around at the rest of the room. It is super cozy and looks like a great place to spend some time working or reading. There's a really cozy little seating area further back that I wanted to check out but didn't. Our food and drinks came out in less than 10 minutes. Everything tasted great! My sandwich was really good and I loved the crispiness of the croissant. The bacon was a bit fatty so I wasn't able to eat most of it. My drink was also really good. It wasn't too sweet and had the perfect amount of flavoring. My partner also enjoyed his muffin and hot chocolate. If you're driving through Junction City, give this place a go! It's super cozy, has a good sized menu, and the staff are super friendly. I'll definitely be back. read more

We ordered our sandwich's and drinks at the counter. The place was very clean and cute. We had a fairly long wait for our food and the drinks came after we got our food. It was at least 40 minutes total. Unfortunately I didn't check the time when we ordered. I did go up to the counter once to ask for our drinks, but that didn't happen. They were pretty busy so I'm assuming they just didn't have the crew to handle it. Otherwise I would have given them 5 stars. read more

Very cozy great coffee and yummy snacks great place to meet friends or read a book!!!!! Nice employees too

Finally stopped in today for a quick lunch. We were a little early but these lovely ladies were happy to let us order lunch. Our sandwiches were wonderful I just wish we had thought to take a picture to post. My husband had the club and I had the Mojo which was a surprisingly wonderful burst of flavor. Enjoyed every bite. We are in town a few times a year and we will be back to eat here every time. They ladies know what's they're doing. It's a must try! read more

When I first arrived I noticed how packed it was. They were extremely busy, but still efficient. I was greeted right away and service was top notch from taking my order to delivering my food and drinks. As I waited I walked around and checked out the place. It's a cute and cozy coffee shop. Music was playing, seemed to be a mixed bag of old and new school today. The breakfast sandwich I had was made on a croissant. My drink was the Shamrock! It was so good! I'd highly recommend this place if passing through. Locals know this is the spot read more

Of corse coffee is great all the usuals, pumpkin spice latte etc. You've got to try the lunch food! Even the breakfast sandwiches! Soup and salads - all great for a light lunch. Chicken salad was my favorite. Not too much mayonnaise! Rhee is a homey feel about the place. Old JC photos and books.. you'll love the amount of tables and seating. The room in the back can be used for a bible study or meeting. Creaky wood floors add to the experience here! read more

Max Porter's - Front counter ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Junction City, Oregon

An oasis. Delicious coffee drinks and fresh food. They have my favorite breakfast: yogurt, granola, fruit -- and they used good quality Nancy's yogurt, homemade gluten-free granola and fresh strawberries! Also the servers are very friendly and considerate. This is a welcoming environment for all. read more

Great little café right in the heart of downtown Junction City. Has a nice decor and free WiFi. If they have it, they'll make it for you with a smile on their faces. I always order the same thing and the food is always fresh and doesn't appear to be more than a day old. They're open Monday through Saturday. Closed on Sunday's. It's not very accessible for handicapped people unless you get out from wherever you parked(free street parking) and walk to the nearest intersection and walk up the sidewalk, otherwise you have to step up over the curb to get on the sidewalk. There is a free parking lot on 5th and Greenwood, so if you're in a wheelchair you can park there and walk up to 6th and Greenwood and cross there. read more

Such a cute spot and really friendly staff! Got a huge salad and delicious drink. Loved it so much and had fun looking at all the art.

There are a few tables out front,but I would love if they put up umbrellas because man that sun can get hot! I've been here twice with pups so I couldn't sit inside or leave the dogs in the car. I always get iced americano and my hubby got a London fog which he said was good. We've only eaten bagels here but they do have other breakfast and lunch options that we might try the next time we're in Junction City. Overall it's a nice coffee shop. The staff seem friendly. read more

I love max porters crantastic lunch special, I do wish they'd get some better soup options on a couple of the days. The service is ok, kind of slow during the lunch hour but usually worth the wait. The tea and coffee are great and the molasses cookies are the best ! read more

They were pretty slow on service with no sense of urgency from staff, but the coffee and food are great. The espresso is amazing. They have a cute interior, and a good amount of seating. The staff were nice. The breakfast burrito was good, but it is 12 dollars and smaller than I was expecting. I'd definitely come back for the coffee. read more

What a cute place! Everyone was really nice. It was my first time in on our way to Brigadoon Winery and we stopped in to grab lunch to go. The server explained some things on the menu and I decided on the goat cheese and cranberry salad and the Turkey and cranberry sandwich. Both were tasty and felt healthy. Maybe a bigger container for salad dressing and although the Turkey was good, having roasted Turkey instead of deli would really elevate it. I'm coming back to try out the other options. Great flavors and price point. read more

Max Porter's - Goat cheese/walnut/cranberry salad with raspberry vinaigrette and the turkey cranberry sandwich (comes with kettle chips and a pickle). - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Junction City, Oregon

What an awesome and amazing coffee bar! A friend took me here for lunch. I ha e seen it but have never been in. It's a quaint little coffee bar that I can picture slam poetry being held at on Friday nights. The menu is pretty good, quite a few options as far as lunch goes. I ordered tge jalapeños popper sandwich. And an eggnog cappuccino. The seating is interesting. There are a few traditional tables like you'd expect, then couches with tables. This is where we sat. The couch wasn't soft by any means, but I wasn't expecting soft enough to fall asleep. Just a little softer would have been nice. But, it isn't a deal breaker for me. I just know that they are hard. The decor is like what I would expect from a coffee bar; plenty of art, from what I am assuming, is a local artist as somewhere for sale. The food arrived pretty quickly. The sandwich looked delicious. The cappuccino was also delivered, and one taste I was in heaven. Now, my sandwich was interesting, to say the least. It had bacon, cream cheese, and peppers on it. I took my first bite and and though it tasted delicious, the bacon seemed to have been barely cooked. What a disappointment. I get people eat their bacon like this, just not my thing. I would like to make clear, the sandwich was extremely delicious, just not how I like my bacon cooked. Overall, I had a great time, the service was above par and the food was great! The cappuccino was out of this world! I am going to try this place again, try a different sandwich. read more

Nice little gem in Junction City. Lots of space to gather with friends or do some work. Had a drip coffee that was flavorful and had depth.

Walked to town for lunch. Nice location with some outdoor seating. The inside is a great original building with very high ceilings. Staff was attentive and fast. Gave great recommendation for a half sandwich and salad. read more

The service was good, the baristas were kind, the ambiance was clean and on point; cute, cozy, rustic coffee shop. I ordered a vanilla latte and I was disappointed in the espresso and didn't taste much like vanilla. The breakfast menu is about what you'd expect from a coffee shop, but the croissant sandwich didn't taste very fresh and the yogurt parfait was a bit too plain. Maybe it was an off day, and I'll try it again. read more

Such a great vibe! Food is tasty, and staff ate super friendly. Restaurant is clean and full of small groups of people all enjoying life. I had the half turkey cranberry sandwich and half gorgonzola sugar walnut salad with a coconut iced tea. Such a nice lunch! read more

excellent and peaceful place to have coffee . Love to have coffee there with my sister

I really enjoyed the vibe in this place. The food is delicious just the perfect amount of food. The quality is good-the food taste really fresh. I really like the crème brûlée latte, it's sweet and creamy. The coffee is very bold and rich and not bitterness. A nice compliment to your breakfast. read more

Love this place! Real food, tastes great. The lovely decor is warm and inviting. We'll be back.

Coffee shop is very cute. Good is good. Service is extremely slow. I go here once a week after my daughter's class. It takes them about 30 min to make sandwiches or heat up quiche. I've recently stopped going because of how slow they are. read more

We very much enjoyed our morning stop at this comfortable, pleasant coffee shop and restaurant. The house coffee (with one free refill) was delicious. We both chose a generous slice of sausage and green chili quiche with sliced strawberry garnish. It was warm, delicious, and very reasonably priced. This was our first time here, and the rest of the menu looks fabulous, so we are making plans to come again soon. read more

I adore this lovely coffee shop with a great breakfast and lunch menu to boot! I had a crantastic turkey sandwich, a cup of tomato gorgonzola soup, and a gorgolzola walnut side salad with an iced creme brulee latte. Everything was amazingly flavorful, especially the soup and latte! They also had a great $5 kids meal for my little: choice of PBJ or grilled cheese with fresh fruit, animal crackers, and a Capri sun! We love it here, and can't wait to try more of the menu! read more

What an absolute treat! A charming shop in downtown Junction City. Very pleasant staff and a comfortable atmosphere. The lunch I had was amazing. I had the Hillbilly Panini with a cup of the soup of the day. The panini was mesa with sourdough bread and tasted amazing. The pumpkin curry soup was so lively with flavor. Then I had a soft oatmeal, cinnamon and raisin cookie. What a home run for this town. I can't wait to try their coffee and breakfast foods. They should be even more amazing! read more

I didn't realize I haven't written a review for one of my favorite local hangouts. If you haven't noticed from my overly detailed and thoroughly exhaustive reviews that I am a novel writer. I'm one of those creative types who needs a very special and particular environment to get any sort of writing done. Max Porter's meets these needs inside and out. It's a quaint local coffee shop on the cute little main drag through a cute little town in the Willamette Valley. They have brick walls, bookcases, and comfy sofas inside as well as a sheltered seating area outside. Plus their staff is full of amicable and jovial baristas who are always eager and pleasant to work with. They also provide great coffee and tea as well as scrumptious sandwiches and soup. There's a reason I spend hours at Max Porter's. Make sure you pay attention to their hours, though! They're closed on Sundays and shut down at 3 on Saturdays. read more

They no longer desire to sell gluten-free foods. Gotta buy as cheap as possible to make as much as possible!! They say they don't sell gluten-free because not enough buyers and never will if they don't. UNfortunately the gluten free community is growing! AND there are so many dishes that can be made others don't even realize it is gluten-free!! Coffee ... you can get a refill if you buy the regular house coffee medium size. read more

Excellent panini sandwich, was huge, good atmosphere, fair price. Will definitely go back.

I consider myself a bit of a Chai snob and Max Porter's makes the absolute best Chai Latte I've ever had! It's so delicious. In addition they have great sandwich specials... I definitely recommend visiting this quaint little coffee shop! read more

There was nothing I didn't like about this place. There is a coffee shop I used to frequent in Michigan before it closed in 2012. It feels like I have found it's doppelgänger here in Junction City. The food is excellent, the Chai was spicy and creamy, and the ambiance is relaxed and chill. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and this will be a must stop when I come back to visit my folks. Love this place. read more

Five years of enjoying this place and even after a pandemic it has managed to be one of my favorite coffee shops ever. I love every change they've made, the service is consistently excellent, and you might wait a little at lunch time because they get so busy but they are always hustling and it's worth it. read more

Nice place to relax with coffee or tea. Smaller breakfast/lunch menu. Food was good. Service friendly. Recommend!

Oh yum. This is my new favorite coffee shop!! The whole place is decorated really cute and is comfy which is what I love about a coffee shop. They have so many places to sit (couches, regular tables out in the open, tables kind of hidden away for an introverted day, and more!) I had the black and white mocha and it was so delicious! I went with two friends and they loved it too! The barista, Savannah, was very nice! I will be going back!!!:) read more
