Our hearts were broken when Coffee People were sold and Diederich Coffee bowdlerized it. Jim and Patty rocked and ruled the bean in this town, and in Portland, coffee to us meant Coffee People, and they were everywhere. I remember good coffee, no backtalk, and heavenly oat cakes.\r

We were thrilled to find out that they had a new coffee place. The coffee is just the way we remember; the pastries are just as good, the attitude just as hip. They even have old Coffee People decor!\r

There is nothing at all wrong with the product and the coffee and the service. They just need to be open a bit later. We're night owls from necessity, and we just can't get over there as often as we'd like. I hope they expand hours soon and open another shop or two somewhere else in town.
Pros: Everything-coffee excellent, service is friendly, pastries are divine
Cons: Not open late enough, only one location!
