Plant-forward food, small-batch coffee, and a long table where strangers become regulars. Three café locations in Portland and beans shipping nationwide.
We started Daybreak because most mornings felt like a transaction. A drive-through, a paper cup, twelve minutes later you couldn't tell us what you drank. We wanted the opposite of that.
So we built three café spaces full of plants and natural light, found farmers we could call by name, and built a menu around what's growing this week. The result is a slower café, and on most mornings, a quieter mind.
A menu that's vegetable-first by default. Meat exists, but it's optional. Most of what we make happens to be vegan or vegetarian without making a thing about it.
Fourteen farms we visit in person. We pay double commodity for our green coffee, every year, every harvest. That's the only sourcing standard we trust.
Beans are roasted Monday and Thursday on a 1955 Probat and shipped within 24 hours. Never more than a week old by the time they reach your kitchen.
Pre-order any roast, and we'll ship it the morning after it comes off the Probat. Never more than seven days old when it reaches your door, ever.

Honey-processed. Brown sugar, peach, a memory of orange peel.
Floral, blueberry-forward. The kind of coffee that converts a French press loyalist to a V60.
Our flagship. Chocolate, hazelnut, a gentle citrus finish. Plays nice with milk.
Chemical-free decaf. Caramel, cocoa, a clean finish. Real coffee, no jitters.
We host small gatherings in our café spaces, monthly. Pour-over classes for beginners. Sourcing cuppings for the curious. Long-table dinners with the farmers we work with.
All eventsTwo hours of brewing, tasting, and tweaking. Take home a V60.
