The Fresh Pot was the first coffee shop in this now popular district, opening in 02 or 03 when the area was pretty sketchy.  Still it was popular right away, and quite possibly the inspiration for the Portlandia line that our city is the place where people in their 20s go to retire. Initially full of hipsters and maybe too precious, this FP original outlet has mellowed for the better.     4001 N. Mississippi    http://www.thefreshpot.com/
