Peet’s Coffee & Tea

Thankfully, they’ve minimized the number of veganly-​correct, free-​from-​everything-​that-​makes-​food-​fun foods. Nothing like a fully featured Marion berry muffin this time of year. The seasonal lattes are quite good this time of year as well. Cinnamon hazelnut latte is my current favorite.

Great customer service, great coffee. I found them busy but still great customer service. At my table I found it unclean and sticky, but as soon as I advices a staff member he immediately cleaned it. Great experience.

This place has the worst breakfast pastries I have ever tasted anywhere on the planet. My husband and I took one bite of a scone and of a muffin, left them uneaten, and walked out with a taste of glue in our mouths. Truly inedible.

I dont know who to blame for the lackluster espresso fare at Peet’s but ultimately would likely have to absolve the staff at this location of any blame considering it is the choices made by corporate that inspire the bulk of my critique. This is one of, if not the absolute worst place for vegan-​espresso-​options. Their white chocolate, caramel, and chocolate syrups all contain dairy as do their smoothie options.
This, in addition to a generally lackluster menu that does little to differentiate itself from other ambiguous corporate coffee brands earns Peet’s a 3 star review. I do think this particular location could be better trained to handle rushes though, where a line of four or more customers can easily feel like bumper to bumper where nothing. is. moving.

Peet’s Coffee and Tea recently bought Mighty Leaf Tea and has since re-​branded some of their tea as Mighty Leaf and started selling other Mighty Leaf tea. Some of their best teas were discontinued and they changed there iced tea (which was normal green tea) to a pineapple flavored green tea. Mighty Leaf tea is good quality but the selection is limited and I am not a fan of the fruit flavors that have been added.

I like Peet’s for the most part. Pretty decent coffee and snacks. I mostly like this location for the convenience and the fun staff. Definitely worth a weekly visit

This place is great. Great location. Great staff. Great coffee.
My one complaint, and it is quite the major complaint, is that the internet at this location has slowed considerably in recent months, to the point that many people have a hard time with any work they might need a faster connection for. PLEASE, FIX YOUR INTERNET, PEET’S!!!
Other than that, it’s a really nice place to come and work and have a coffee.

Came in with my granddaughter last week and was met by some of the friendliest and most knowledgeable baristas in town. I love this shop, the location, and the nice mix of clientele. I’ve been drinking coffee for 35 years and locally I think Peets is the best!

I like to duck into Peet’s now and then. If nothing else, at least it’s not a Methbuck’s. I like the coffee, the service is cordial and efficient. They seem to have a better selection of goodies than their competitors.
Let me put it this way; if I were standing equidistant from Pete’s, Starbuck’s and Black Rock (not impossible in PDX), I would gravitate towards Peet’s

I have heard good things about Peet’s Coffee and decided to give it a try after a particularly stressful day, upon checking in I was offered a coupon which is always nice. I like that the business is engaged in their Unilocal profile and that they are open after 6.
The pumpkin latte I ordered was delicious. The barista misheard my asking for a medium for being a small and quickly used an adorable and timeless star wars joke about working on his Jedi mind tricks when he realized his mistake. He was polite and helpful, and though I unfamiliar with the menu he quickly and politely informed me exactly what a «Freddo» is (pronounced fray-​doe). Which is a blended, frothy drink.
My only complaint about this place is it has a slightly Starbucks feel to it, a little cold too. But those are very minor complaints and I will definitely be returning to Peet’s for another Pumpkin Latte in the near future.
P. S. The milk texture was superb, though that should be a requirement I am often disappointed by a lack of foam and stirring. Hats off to the barista here tonight!

I’ve been a fan of Peets coffee for most of my life. I have lived in Portland now for 20 years, and even though Portland has some great coffee roasters, they don’t match up to Peets. I also care to note that there isn’t any of that negative vibe you so often see at other local spots, just great service with a smile.
This location is my favorite. Great customer service, ambiance and of course coffee!
Thanks for all the years!

The staff is friendly and seemingly knowledgeable at this location.
I always enjoy my almond milk lattes and I am thankful for the alternative milk choice. The tables and floor are always clean and the garbage doesn’t seem to overflow. which I have noticed at other locations or chain coffee shops.
I went to a different (I can’t even recall the name) coffee shop to «try something new» and walked right back out as soon as I looked around. Maybe their coffee is fantastic but let’s talk about pretentious! I like that Pete’s never feels uncomfortable or awkward.

I have been coming to (my!) Peet’s everyday for nearly 5 years. Although living in Portland means plenty of places to get coffee, this is my spot. And it’s all because of the people who work here. They are the most friendly and welcoming staff I have ever come across. None of that pretentious, hipster vibe here… just a nice smile and «good morning» every time I come in. Kate, Sarah, Leisl and Miriam have taken care of me since I started coming in, but the newer people are just as great. There is definitely a reason why this is store where they train for other locations!
I could just buy a bag and brew at home saving me all sorts of money, but when I come in I get more than a coffee… I see people that genuinely get my day off to great start!

It’s official, I love this place. Checked out a couple of other places in the neighborhood, found myself drawn back to Peets. Comfortable here whether there’s one table available or all of them.

Peet’s is a decent coffee shop, for a chain. I had a soy chai, my beverage of choice, and it was good. The atmosphere is pretty corporate; all the Peets look the same, like other chains like Starbucks. I prefer independent coffee shops; they have more character. But Peets is better than the boring Starbucks, and when you are looking for a place to duck into in the rain, it’s the obvious choice.

I had a major Portlandia experience in there today. It took forever to get my coffee as the one barista lovingly caressed my salted caramel mocha. But it was worth the wait.

I just moved to Portland and further the neighborhood. I came here for a caffeinated beverage as a break from work (I work at home) and was welcomed by such friendly baristas! That makes such a difference when you walk into a food-​related shop :)
I ordered a pumpkin latte with almond milk (they now have almond milk!!!). Unfortunately, they put whipped cream and caramel on it, I figured they would have asked me if I still wanted whipped cream since I ordered a beverage with non-​dairy milk. Oh well, if you are vegan (like myself) remember to ask for no whipped cream and caramel! Otherwise the barista was super nice about changing my drink for me. I like coming here for my breaks just to see some smiling faces.
The drink was delicious — I recommend coming here for a grab-​and-​go or to stay and chat. There are ALWAYS people chatting over drinks here, make it seem more cozy.

This lovely store has a stained glass window in front and pretty windows all around.
It reminds me of Berkeley, or nothern CA. Not quite enough seating, but a lovely old building. Everyone sits there being above average, working out of the office, with their slightly tarnished technical equipment, just like in Berkeley. Most of the families are partially foreign– a Brit and an American. An American and a Thai. Each of these unions has approximately 1.3 non-​typical but above-​average children,(due to the stress of the transcontinental lifestyle). Just like in Berkeley. A transvestite sits predictably in front. Just like Berkeley. Kind of creepy neighborhood, but everyone ignores that. Just like Berkeley.
The coffee is Peets coffee. I love it.

I went there hundreds. What I like more of this coffee is its people, both clerks and customers. Smiling faces is a good way to wake up even more important then having a not so perfect coffee.
They struggle on providing the best service they can, and they are good at that.
Ordering is fast, Wifi is not.
Coffee is decent, nothing special.
Pastries are close to the worst you can have, often too dry, selection is good though.
Recommended if you care about enjoy a good ambient while sipping your coffee, not recommended for a good coffee and pastry take away.

Mmmmmmm Coffee. I like this Peet’s primarily for its proximity to my house. When meeting a friend for coffee, it’s either this place or the Starbucks. And I’ve got my street cred to think about, so I never suggest Starbucks.
Peet’s offers vegan pumpkin flavoring for that fall favorite, the pumpkin spiced latte. They also offer bananas, the breakfast of champions. I think they used to offer a few vegan baked goods, but I haven’t seen any on display recently.
Service is always quick and friendly, it’s priced fairly affordably, and the coffee’s not bad. With lots of seating, there’s always room for me and my best friend du jour to sit and gab about life for an hour or so.
This is a solid coffee shop – nothing too extra-​special fancy about it, but that’s part of it’s charm. It’s just decent coffee at decent prices located very close to my house. Sometimes that’s all a gal needs.
