The very 1st Monthly Portland Coffee Meetup for July

This location is shown only to members

Ristretto (Italian for “restricted,” and a term used for the first sweet burst of espresso) Roasters founder and coffee roaster Din Johnson handcrafts every batch of beans, roasting them on-site in a vintage Probat roaster. He will be on hand personally for a tour of the operation! We will be allowed afterhours access to the insider secrets coffee geeks like us crave!

Ristretto roasts coffee every day, and no roasted coffee is kept more than seven days. The café also features a traditional espresso bar, homemade baked goods, mid-century furnishings, a rotating roster of modern art, and free WiFi.

All Ristretto Roasters coffees are medium-roasted, allowing the consumer to experience the flavors of the coffee (rather than merely the roast). This can take some persuading, as customers come into the café convinced they only like the deepest, darkest roast.
