About Portal Coffee
Portal Coffee is a low key coffee shop in Little Italy that is quietly doing things right. They roast their own beans, their coffee is delicious, and they are as friendly as any coffee shop you’ll find in the city. The location itself, across from Waterfront Park is breezy and light-filled with a spacious patio out front and wrapping around the side. On weekends they often have a DJ who plays quiet, vibey music that is surprisingly welcome even if you are their to study or read. And hey, Portal Coffee is a great place for studying, reading, writing, or meeting a friend.
