Great drip coffee! Service was friendly and quick. Also enjoyed the Moroccan latte on a prior visit.

I really enjoy working from Ovation Coffee because it has a welcoming atmosphere, great coffee, and the perfect balance of energy and focus. As a local realtor, it's an ideal spot to bring my laptop, stay productive, and even connect with people in the community while getting work done.

Pumpkin Chocolate Scone + Moroccan Chai
Dana S.

Coffee shop featuring Moroccan-inspired drinks. Great location by the Fields Park. The shop has big windows that let in light and offer pleasant views. The barista that took my order was very friendly and helpful with my questions. I got a pumpkin chocolate scone and a Moroccan chai. Scone was good, crispy outside and fluffy inside. The Moroccan chai was cool - I think it was sprinkled with coarse sugar, which created a sort of crust on top of the foam, but the rest of the drink wasn't super sweet, and the spices were strong but smooth. This was a good choice for something a little different.

Moroccan ice coffee, blue raspberry nitro lemonade, croissant
Brittany H.

Baristas were helpful and sweet. Are order came out incredibly fast and was delicious. Their menu had coffee classic, but also fun, unique drinks too. We ordered two drinks and a croissant, all of that was only $12. There was a decent amount of inside seating, but it is a pretty small space. Across the street there is a really pretty park, which added ambiance and could serve as additional space on a good day

Tried this coffee place when I wanted to try something different. The coffee was a little different with the moroccan influence. They sprinkled cinnamon powder on top of my cappuccino. Although it didn't taste any different to be honest. The ambiance is pretty refreshing and chic. The service is very nice with friendly staff. Coffee was very average.

Marionberry Cheese Croissant and Spinach Feta Croissant

We had the spinach feta croissant and the marionberry cheese croissant. Both were perfection. The pistachio latte and Moroccan latte were both unique and delicious. Recommend doing half sweet on the latte if you like a mild sweetness.

my favorite coffee in Portland Oregon. I walked in as it was nearby to the gym I was going to. I wanted to try their coffee and save it for the next day. One sip and I was hot. Looking forward to coming here on another visit.

Cue little gem around the corner of pearl district. Lots of residents came here after morning workouts. You can see lots of furry friends coming In and out. Staffs are super nice. Coffee is a must try. Exotic Moroccan lattes gives an interesting twist to the flavor. Some spice reminds me of the Chinese 5 spices but not too strong. Some has dry onion in it? Got to experience it Biscuits and paninis are also great flavor with a reasonable price. Love the crispy sandwiches.

Lavender matcha latte
Sofia P.

Interesting twist on a matcha latte with their added spices, next time I'd try without the lavender because there are just so many flavors going on. Great service. It was pretty packed inside but also very quiet- seems like a great workspace.

They serve heart coffee and they also sell proud Mary. Two legit brands that bolster their reputation for me. The atmosphere inside is clean and modern. There are a few tables outside on the patio if you want more of an urban sidewalk experience. Parking is manageable on the adjacent streets and menu prices are fair for the market. Service is generally friendly and fairly efficient. The available bathroom is clean and does not require a code, which is always a perk. This is a great option if you want something that offers more of a neighborhood type of feel. A great choice if you want to pick something to go or if you want to stay and chill for a while. A gem in a sea of good Portland options!

I would come back for the space, but I would order something different next time. ------ This Prince Coffee location is really cute. The ambiance and seating area are aesthetically pleasing, with a bright, airy, and light-colored atmosphere. Ordering was quick and easy, and the drinks came out fairly fast. I visited on a weekend, and because it was raining outside, indoor seating was pretty limited. I was excited to try the drinks, but unfortunately, there was something a little off with the flavor profiles of the ones I ordered. 1. Coconut Jasmine Lemonade: This tasted pretty good overall, but I could barely taste the jasmine since the lemonade dominated most of the drink. The drink also seemed to coagulate a bit, which left behind an unusual texture. 2. Guava Coconut Matcha: This drink was okay, but I was not entirely sure that the matcha and guava complemented each other well. The flavors did not feel as balanced as I was hoping. Overall, I would come back because the cafe has a great ambiance and location. However, I would probably steer away from the drinks I ordered and try something else next time.

Early in the morning the coffee shop was pretty busy, especially as stores were not opened yet. As it was my first time in the shop it took me awhile to process the menu- this is definitely a coffee focus place (not for tea drinkers). And the focus seems to be on more coffee forward drinks, rather than jacked up with sugar and other stuff like Starbucks. Coffee prices are inline with other coffee stores in the area. As for seating, the shop provides tables seating. Plus there is a nice coffee bar at the windows, which is perfect for people watching. Plus there is a small coffee bar that faces the barista if you want to watch drinks being made. Parking can be tough in this area as the main shopping street....parking is on the street and off the main street.

The shop is situated in an iconic part of NW 21st; it exudes sophisticated and timeless charm. Stepping inside, you see the historical bones of the building laced with modern touches of hip decor and thoughtful design. It's a bit retro and a bit edgy all while being chic, so it's very well aligned with Portland itself. Sit on a live edge bench! Enjoy a marshmallow stick. Stare at the luxurious wallpaper. But don't let these things deter you from the epic coffee experience that awaits you. Subtly smooth, adequately bold and flavors aplenty... all served with a smile. The staff is incredibly friendly. My drink was even delivered my table by the barista! The bathroom is clean and parking is available on the street. They have all the classics and then some. There were aromas of homemade chai permeating the space as I sipped my coffee. This is an experience that can't be boiled down to 'just coffee.' It's not just another errand when you're in NW either. It's the kind of place where a random stranger next to you says aloud that 'this is the best coffee in Portland' as you walk by. And they mean it. One of my favorite coffee experiences of the year so far. It's memorable on many levels, and the atmosphere aligns so well with the vibrancy of our city. You owe it to yourself, and to maintaining the true spirit of Portland, to stop in, stay and sip a while. There's no better way to identify with Sterling than through firsthand experience. See you there soon.

The Loss of a True Neighborhood Anchor…read more For years, this coffee house was the primary reason I loved living in this neighborhood. Under its original stewardship, it provided a rare "third place"--a vital social anchor where writers, neighbors, and local faces created a true sense of home. It was a space where you could spend two hours writing in the morning, knowing the flow would be punctuated by the pleasant interruptions of catching up with familiar locals. When the new ownership took over, I eagerly supported them, hoping that inclusive community spirit would endure. Unfortunately, the culture has shifted toward a rigid, punitive customer service framework that completely lacks the ability to navigate human communication differences or de-escalate sensitive situations. A simple, polite morning request to lower the early morning music unexpectedly scaled into an antagonistic confrontation with young staff. Then, in a subsequent incident, instead of a calm intervention, during a conversation, I was publicly yelled at across a crowded room by another young employee. Their continued rude behavior pushed me past a breaking point out of sheer anxiety, and I uncharacteristically lost my temper, resorted to profanity, and walked out. While I take full ownership of my part--reacting defensively under that immense stress--the owners' ultimate solution was to permanently ban a long-term, 5-plus years loyal patron rather than engage in a mutual conversation about what caused the friction in the first place. For an establishment that projects an image of neighborhood inclusivity, the reality is a stark lack of grace. By prioritizing a punitive model over community care, the new management has hollowed out the very environment that made this place a longtime, beloved local fixture. It is deeply saddening and has been a great upset to lose such a meaningful part of my daily neighborhood routine, but those who value a truly inclusive, understanding neighborhood environment should be aware of how the culture here has fundamentally changed.
