Costello's Travel Caffe

In a city with a LOT of indie cafe choices, Costello's is hands-down my favorite. Their world travel theme is fun (they play street views from around the world on the tvs!), they have a lot of great folks working there, the atmosphere is eclectic and cozy, and their quiche is to DIE for.

Love pastry made in the house, we tried Marionbeery scone. Then we shared meat quiche which was "fluffy and delicious and I could really taste the bacon(my fav), and Biscwitch which was more dense" and SO yummy. Everything was incredible good

Cute little cafe with a travel theme. Lots of spots to sit. Looks like folks come here to work. Super cute.

Costello's is an excellent coffee shop, a wonderful breakfast spot and one of the best bakeries in Portland. They make the only decent snickerdoodle I've ever found at bakery in Oregon. The shop has changed hands a few times in the past decade but the new owners as of 2023 are making huge improvements. It still feels like going back in time to Portland in the 90's though. If you ever have guests who want to experence what all the fuss was about when Portland was cheap and weird; Costello's is the genuine article. My only complaint would be that the noise level can get pretty high when it's a full house and seating can be scarce during peak hours. Do yourself a favor and come in on a rainy Wednesday morning for an avocado toast with fried eggs and jo jo's on the side. It's pure PNW hygge bliss.
