Monte Rossa Cafe - Coffee shop in Portland - 327 NW 4th Ave, USA

Hands down my favorite cappuccino of all time! Monte Rossa is a super casual, intimate little gem in old town Chinatown. Everything produced from the coffee drinks, to all the prepared food is of the utmost quality and made with so much love and care. This cafe has been around for 16 years!!! Since COVID, it's currently been run entirely by one man, the incredible cafe owner Rob. It's obvious Rob puts his full heart into making sure he takes care of his people. If you're in the area, stop by, show some love & your support! Your taste buds for sure won't be disappointed. Old town PDX may have taken a hit during the pandemic but there are people in this community who still push onward everyday and inspire without even realizing their positive impact. Rob and Monte Rossa absolutely being that sunshine in PDX. We love you Rob! -Jess & Sumo

Great Cafe to stop by for a nice breakfast sandwich with all the meats and a Carmel macchiato! Rob was quick, friendly and you can have a great conversation with. Ill be stopping by here again.

I'm excited to share that I both witnessed and received the most friendly and exceptional service here. Our drinks were lovely, too! I work nearby and came in to grab a quick coffee with a coworker. There were some regulars in ahead of us. I was impressed by the gentleman behind the counter knowing folks' names and orders before they told him them. Everyone in the coffee shop was chatty and happy to be there, obviously aware of and thankful for the great service!! The vibes were great. The mocha was delicious (I'm hard to please, too, so that's saying something). I love their pink straws. I loved that they had hot breakfast options. I just loved my whole visit!!! Thanks for running such a cool spot and for being so rad at it 😎🤟

Walked in and was immediately warmly greeted, my order was taken right away. I only ordered a latte but it was a nice dark roast with nice, thick foam. Barista was funny and friendly. Will be stopping by again

What a great neighborhood establishment. The owner has got a great memory for his customers and is always pleasant to talk to while he makes your delicous drink or sandwich. I think it some of the best customer service Ive ever expirienced. Just everything youd want from a neighborhood cafe.

An oasis in the depths of grimy Old Town. Rob makes legit sandwiches and subs to die for. really good espresso milkshakes as well. A super nice guy makes this diamond in the rough feel like home. I always get a couple extra shots of espresso for rainy days!

Decent tea (all I ordered this trip) but the man running the counter may be the friendliest person I’ve ever met. I gotta come back for coffee and pastry some time.

The owner is an outstanding human being and this coffee shop is amazing. I happened upon this shop by accident and I am so glad that I did. Great coffee and some delicious food too! This place is literally a hidden gem. Very friendly and welcoming to everyone who comes to this establishment.
