Adorable locally own coffee shop. I think it was the owner working the front based off of his confidence and pride in his pastries. He highlighted to us the baked good that he felt came out well that day. The chocolate croissant was flakey and well balanced and the canele was the perfect little sweet treat. The blueberry muffin was jam packed with blueberries. We also ordered the rose croissant which was fun to eat. The rose was not too overpowering and added a bit of uniqueness. 10/10 great way to start the day. read more

Sergei was so kind, explaining all the wonderful Croissant pastries and other delectables in the case. The Almond Croissant was off the hook. Americano a bit too watery, even though I asked for minimal water. Hence not robust enough Service was exceptional and gracious Charming locally owned coffee shop recommended by my hotel the Mark Spencer $22 including tip, 1 coffee and 2 pastries read more

I love this bakery. The inside is very modern and bright. Small place, only a few tables inside. I have had their lemon poppy seed scone at Roseline coffee- I believe they sell nuvrei pastries there and it is my absolute favorite. So delicious and never disappoints. Today I tried their canele which is another one of my favorite pastries and they are often hard to find so I was so excited to see they had them. It was great. Crispy on the outside and custardy in the middle. You could see flecks of vanilla bean inside. The coffee was pretty standard. My coffee and canele was 7.50$ all together. The baristas were super nice and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this spot. read more

Nice little whole in the call bakery and cafe. We popped in here as we like to try pastries in the area. The selection was a little bit lacking with most of the options just being variants of the standard croissant. Was hoping to see a little bit more. That said what we did get overall was tasty and a solid showing for a croissant. We went with the standard and the blueberry vanilla danish. The coffee and ordering seemed fine overall and there was a few small seating areas though I wouldn't expect to be able to find a seat as it is a rather small venue. It was a little confusing they there was no area to buss or return plates. They wound up just taking them at the counter but some indication of that would likely make the experience more clear for folks. read more

Loved their rose croissant! The flavor was strong and delightful, floral and lightly sweet, fluffy inside with flaky outer crisp and light glaze. Very balanced and goes well with black coffee or cold brew. Service was very helpful for new customers. Not too much seating but cozy and clean. read more

Not sure how this cafe escaped my attention. Glad I discovered this bakery last weekend. Their pastries looked too notch and that ham and cheese 'everything' croissant was amazing (even though a little pricey). I ate everything including the crumbs. I also loved how my croissant was served warm. I only wish all savory croissants can be served warm (especially the vegetarian everything croissant). Not a bad idea to get a mini toaster now read more

Stopped by with a friend to grab a coffee and some pastries. The customer service as great. There were many options of croissants and macaroons. I got the Rose Croissant and it was so yummy! Definitely recommend trying it at least once :) read more

I enjoyed this pastry shop but was a little disappointed because it said they have bagels but they do not have any bagels at the pearl location. The pastries and macarons looked very nice. The coffee selection was a little more limited and no seasonal specials or anything super interesting. It is a cute place but definitely more focused on pastries than anything else! read more

I tried this bakery due to all the hype I've seen online and honestly I didn't really get the hype. It's cute inside, limited seating and it has a glass display case for the pastries, you just pick and order. Street parking! The service was alright. I tried the chocolate croissant and my boyfriend got a savory croissant; breakfast with protein of some sort. He also got a rose coffee of some sort that was seriously disappointing and he ended up just tossing. The croissants were ok, severely lacking actual filling of anything other than a regular croissant. That and the coffee being bad, honestly just not into trying it again. I've had very good croissants and this just isn't a place that comes to mind for one, they weren't inedible but to eat a filled croissant that actually has little to no filling and it was like almost $6 each, super disappointing. read more

I didn't want to have a pastry & coffee break onsite at Powell's Books cafe or the nearby Starbucks. So thankfully, the Yelp app guided me to Nuvrei in the Pearl District, a short walk a few blocks away (9/3/24). I was warmly greeted upon entering. I was immediately dazzled by the amazing assortment of pastries and macarons. I decided to have a pain au chocolat and a 16oz mocha onsite. There's limited seating, but worked out fine for me and three others. Both items hit the spot during my 30 minute visit. Other info to pass on is that acceptable payment are debit/credit cards only. Valhrona chocolate is used with their baked goods. That's a plus for me! Owner worked with François Payard in NYC and is a native Portlander. Been in business fot two decades, clearly I've been under a rock! Definitely late to this party, nice spontaneous find! read more

WHEN: Fri @1pm The last time I came here was 5 years ago, so I'm happy to swing by before heading to a cafe to work out of! I wanted to try something new this time, which is why I got: PISTACHIO ROSE CROISSANT - $6 This is an almond croissant with pistachios and rose flavoring added to it, and boy was it a delightful pastry! I really enjoyed it through and through! It didn't taste like it was a twice baked croissant though, so it was soft and flakey. Last time I got here I got the ROSE CROISSANT ($6) and a SCONE, which both were super yummy. Even the staff mentioned that everything that wasn't a croissant there was under rated, and I knew what she meant immediately! Thank you Nuvrei for the hospitality, I really enjoy your pastries! read more

Nuvrei is small coffee shop and patisserie. They have fresh macaroons among other pastries. It is a small shop with very limited seating, but a nice minimalistic ambiance.they have a limited menu of drinks, but lots of pastries and food to choose from. The staff were friendly and efficient. There wasn't much of a wait to order when I came in, but right after I ordered, a line formed! I had a classic Nuvrei mocha and it was great. I also tried the Vanilla Rum Canales - SO good! It was crisp and flavorful on the outside and soft and cakey on the inside. read more

This little coffee shop is petit. It's one of the few that is open early in Portland. There's a small counter where you can have a laptop plugged in with an outlet. There is bathroom access. As for the eat and pastries, it was very good. London Fog - 5/5. It's delicate, nice steamed milk and subtle sweetness. Lovely. Almond Croissant - 3.5/5. I think this was a bit too sweet for me but very good. read more

It's a cute little shop that has a variety of pastries and dessert items. The service was great and their chocolate cookie is the best! It has a chewy texture and rich chocolate flavor. They also have a good pretzel sandwich. read more

A very small bakery with limited seating and not super easy to find, Nuvrei offers some incredible and unique pastry offerings. Most notably in their unique croissant choices, like none I've ever seen elsewhere. The macaroons are delectable as well. The rose croissant and the everything croissant are incredible. I need to try them all but expect to be pleased. read more

Cafe entrance is indoors, sharing the exterior entrance with a flower shop. They have a case with rows of colorful macarons, as well as a case of various pastries. Inside is very sleek, minimalistic, and clean. Staff was friendly and patient as we selected our pastries. Ordered the blueberry danish, chocolate walnut cookie, and a croissant. There is very little seating - two sets of bar height tables facing the wall, and two low tables, totaling 8 seats. Not very conducive for a stay and chat coffee shop. Meets the requirements as a stylish coffee shop in downtown, but not a great value for the pastries and drinks. The minimalism felt more stark and empty than welcoming and warm. Shared bathroom which requires a code. read more

Shoutout to the person working here to was willing to exchange the plain croissant I originally ordered for a an almond one. I would definitely recommend avoiding the plain croissant- it's very dry, almost stale, with none of that characteristic butteriness. The almond croissant was delicious, and covered in plenty of crunchy almonds. read more

Nuvrei - Oh my! - Bakeries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Nuvrei has the absolute best croissants. My favorite one is the rose but they are all great. Highly recommend trying them all!

Thank goodness! A stylish, tasty, and friendly new bakery has arrived in the Pearl! Nuvrei's low-key presence along a block of historic buildings is a perfect location to house the stylish bakery inside. From the streetscape, dimly-lit interiors with tinted windows hold the mystery of French baked goods inside - so step on through the glass doors - and make your way up the staircase into the boulangerie. The space is cute, small, and well-lit. The baked goods are highlighted by good lighting and high quality finished throughout the space, with well-planned lines and queueing that help people move through the spaced in an organized way. The team of workers are conversational, fun, and they'll help make your experience lovely. Indoor seating is limited, so I'd recommend packing a takeaway box and walking to a nearby park to enjoy your moment with treats. I'd highly recommend the rose croissant or the lemon poppyseed scone. The prices are nice, especially considering how several other boulangeries in NW charge more than $5 per item. Great work, Nuvrei! You'll soon be a local staple in the Pearl. read more

Rose croissants. Mic drop. That's all you need to know to put Nuvrei on your "must try" list. Buttery, crisp, a slight essence of rose with a light rose colored interior, they are divine! Finding Nuvrei, especially if you don't live or work in this hood, is challenging. On the corner of NW Everett & 9th, the bakery is not well marked. Their name is etched in the window but the window is not street level so I walked past multiple times. Determined, I called to ask specifically where they were located and was told to look for the Old Town Florist sign, walk into the building and up the stairs, door to Nuvrei is on the left. To all those reading this review, you are welcome! Brightly colored macaroons, a variety of croissants, muffins, bagels and cookies are available plus a full coffee bar. They don't make the rose or rose and pistachios croissant every day, it's up to the bakers who work on the floor below. Best chances are weekends before 11am. Inside is white and bright with a modern aesthetic. A few tables and chairs for those wanting to enjoy their coffee and pastry there. Best seats along the window for people watching. read more

The food/pastries are delicious. The atmosphere is great, but for the love of god they don't know how to make iced coffee. I've ordered iced coffee a few times now and they always make it hot. It's frustrating to say the least. read more

Nuvrei - Two vanilla mocha with almond milk and chocolate chip cookie - Bakeries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We loved everything we got at Nuvrei! We had the everything croissant, almond croissant, and rose & pistachio croissant. My favorite croissant was the almond. Service was definitely 5 stars. We were in line while a lady bought literally dozens of items. As a thank you, the kind server threw in some free macarons, and when he went downstairs to get a rose & pistachio croissant (the lady had bought everything in the display case) he had doubled my order. So sweet and thoughtful! Even better, the pistachio macaron was hands-down the best macaron I had ever eaten. Not too sweet, and very savory. I will be visiting them again when I am back in downtown Portland! read more

Once I discovered this place on a recent trip to Portland, I couldn't get enough. I went back every morning, sticking with the 12oz latte with oat milk each morning but branching out to try every breakfast sandwich and cookie on offer. Note they have a new location, convenient to most of the hotels downtown and Powell's Books, an Portland institution loved by locals and visitors alike. By the end of my week in Portland, I felt like a Nuvrei regular. While your breakfast sando is being made fresh, have a chat with the friendly barista, sip your caffeinated beverage of choice and ogle the baked goods. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to PDX! read more

My partner and I are big croissant people so we left a coffee shop (with coffee) to come try this place. We apologized to the owner for bringing our own coffee he was grateful we even came and gave us an extra cannale & macaroons to try. Excellent service.

I arrive when they open on a Thursday morning as I wanted to have them as my breakfast for a train ride to Seattle. I was happy to see that there weren't any other customers so I could get in and out quickly. I didn't see a croissant flavor that excited me so I went with the blueberry danish and to cannele. Unfortunately both were underwhelming. The pastry for the blueberry danish had a nice flakiness to it however the blueberry cream center lack of pop of flavor. I wasn't getting sweetness, or blueberry flavor it was very very subtle. I've had a canna lay one other time from a French pastry shop in Northern California so those set the bar for what I was expecting. These did not have the right level of crème brûlée type crunch on the outside and creaminess on the inside. They were a bit too chewy. Overall, they were good but not so much that I would highly recommend or return if I were in the area again. read more

Great little new coffee shop! Really enjoy the breakfast and lunch options. Friendly people and great coffee.

Mauricettes went off. Croissants a little heavy but above par for sure. Good iced americano.

Limited patisserie menu but all fresh, made that morning, and delicious. Their croissants and scones are very yummy. A block from my condo but unfortunately they do not open until 8am on the weekday so not a breakfast option for those who work and go to office. read more

Seth is such a nice man! The iced latte was great and so was the butter crossaint. I got lucky this was right around the corner from my hotel Mark Spencer. Support this business, prices are fair, $5.25 for 12oz. The shop is beautiful and simplistic. The baked goods are displayed perfectly and fresh. If I lived in Portland I'd be a regular. Treat him well, he's been in coffee over 20 yrs and taught me a thing or 2, haha. read more

We missed the location initially until we called for directions. They're located right next to the florist. I got the ham & swiss croissant, which smelled amazing but was so overly salty. My husband got the blueberry scone, which he seemed to really enjoy because he never offered me a bite. :) read more
