Albina Press was an early, successful pioneer in the world of coffee houses.  For us, however, it wasn’t always a successful hang-out due its limited size vs. popularity.   We theorize the twin dynamics of seemingly less popularity -(possibly due over time to an increased supply of quality shops, (many of whom copied the Press’s basics)) – and tasteful expansions, have made it a hang-out success as well.

The three of our group who visited Sunday appreciated the ample room, separate seating areas, comfy chairs and couches, and amount of bike parking.   4637 N. Albina
