I think it’s safe to say all of us are very excited to start exploring local businesses IN PERSON again. After a long year of working remotely, I’ve been drinking a lot of sub-par coffee from home. I am ready to dive into the wonders of hand-crafted lattes, iced cold brews, and for those days when I wish I could hook up an IV of caffeine right into my veins, I want a triple americano!
Enter, Haven Coffee Co. A Cedar Mill gem that’s well worth the drive, even if you aren’t lucky enough to be in their neighborhood. The recently remodeled space is super sleek, with plenty of outdoor seating. It’s the perfect place to catch up on emails, or to get through a few chapters of that book you’ve been meaning to read.
Haven Coffee is a multi-roaster shop, which means you get to try coffee from a rotating selection of new roasters every season. Special consideration is given to organic, natural, Oregon-based companies. They have some really incredible flavor combos on their menu, like the Smoky Maple Latte. If tea is your thing, try the Portland Fog, made with lavender rose white tea, rose water syrup, and steamed milk. You can get Brew Dr. on tap here, and they also sell “batched drinks”. That means you can get 64oz of chai latte goodness to take home and share. (Or not, I won’t tell!)
So when you’re ready to venture out and find a new favorite hang out, Haven should be at the top of your list. Keep your eyes peeled for a couple of dino friends around the shop too!

He has helped clients buy and sell homes on both sides of the river and has a strong understanding of what it takes to negotiate in a way that allows his clients to feel that their best interests are always at the forefront of the negotiation table.

After moving to Portland in 2002, Steve bounced around different neighborhoods on the Eastside of Portland and grew a love for straight shots of espresso. He has now planted roots with his family in the Terra Linda neighborhood of NW Portland and is a sucker for a delicious beer on a hot, summer day from one of the many local breweries in Portland. When he’s not wearing his “Steve the REALTOR®” hat, he likes to spend time in the water with his two boys or just put on some mud boots and find some trails to explore.
