Our Take
Bard Coffee's exposed brick and commitment to serious latte craft have made it a cornerstone of Portland's coffee scene — the kind of place where the barista actually wants to talk about the origin of your espresso. It's a standout local favorite that holds up to its reputation even on a busy morning.
