Clay recommended this cute tiny cafe with "great panini!". First of all, they have a mirror ball. Portland Roasting provides a decent cup of coffee, and there is espresso as well. The breakfast menu is short: panini, bagel, fruit bowl and yoghurt. Lunch offers a variety of panini ($6.25-$7.25), cold sandwiches ($4.25-$5.75), and salads ($4.75-$6.50), as well as sandwich and soup or salad combos, and beer and wine. And yes, the panini are tasty. Service is not the speediest in town, but it's friendly. Seat yourself insider or out— with the only traffic being the MAX trains, it's pretty pleasant. And, they have WiFi.
'crema' on ankeny in SE is just about my favorite cafe ever. try their spanish latte. their pastries and desserts and stuff are awesome too.
The J Cafe is an excellent cafe with wireless internet availability and the best coffee. The place is so clean and great atmosphere. I could quite easily eat all my daily meals there.
