I come to this café almost every day and I absolutely love it. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and professional. I always order the honey cardamom latte — it’s amazing and I highly recommend it. Great service, great quality, and a lovely place to relax.

I'm old enough to remember when Cafe Umbria was only one; the original location. In Portland finding a better cup of coffee than Starbucks is as easy as breathing. Cafe Umbria is truly one of the standouts. Now with multiple locations as proof of their superior offerings. When I'm back in town I'll seek out a Cafe Umbria location.

A busy noise filled paradise for getting in a quick or long study session. Would not recommend it if you have a hard time concentrating around noise, but it was perfect for me. I was there for five hours sustained by English Breakfast Tea. I was a bit shaky there at the end so I threw in a croissant and it did not disappoint. The employee there was extremely fast and a delight to interact with. I would say the English Breakfast Tea was a little weak, but it was alright for it's purpose of keeping me going. It came served in a beautiful glass steeper with a mug to pour it in. I will definitely be returning for future intensive study days. The WiFi worked seamlessly! There is nothing like a steady supply of tea and WIFI to keep you going.
