Portland Café
Located in the heart of the Pearl District, Caffè Umbria's newest retail store provides Portlanders with an authentic Italian café bar experience.
Our espresso based coffee drinks (espresso, macchiato, cappuccino, caffè latte) are prepared in the traditional Italian way. A selection of specialty coffee drinks is available seasonally. Two of our coffee blends are brewed for drip daily. All of our five coffee blends are available for purchase at the café, and can be ground to your preference.
The menu of light Italian fare includes local pastries, a selection of piadine and panini, soup and pasta, and an assortment of beer and wine.
