Space Monkey Coffee
Mt. TaborA petite women-owned coffee shop on SE 72nd across from Mt. Scott Park, pouring beans from local roaster Cellar Door and turning out its own house-baked pastries. The walls double as a rotating gallery for neighborhood art and crafts, and the room keeps a daily 7-to-4 rhythm with a late Tuesday.
The order
A house-baked pastry with a mocha or the coconut toddy cold brew — the two drinks regulars single out — pulled on Cellar Door beans from the local SE Portland roaster.
