Nice little coffee/tea/grocery in a fun, old building. Owner takes care of customers and everything else. When I went in lots of locals were buying beans which are roasted on site.
I had a spiced mocha that was really good (and surprisingly cheap). I would suggest they raise their prices because the same size (not even as good) at pretty much everywhere else I've been in the NW is at least $6.
Also had their coffee at a place in downtown and it was very nice. Smooth, rich flavor.

Small trivia: the main house in the Goonies is about 200'away up the hill (they actually have a Goonies blend of coffee) and the building was in a deleted scene in the movie.

Respect their privacy and enjoy the view (and your coffee) across the street...

I got a pretty red can of astoria coffee company coffee for my brother in laws upcoming birthday. They also sell it in smaller bags and even have a vending machine of coffee outside. It's the...
Read moreWe LOVE this place! Great items from local suppliers. YUMMY hot chocolate. Excellent tea, and I'm sure fantastic coffee (it's just that I don't drink coffee, so I can't attest to that personally, only what I've heard from others). What I can tell you, is that today I had the most amazing breakfast I've ever had, anywhere in the world. Their newly introduced: New Mexico Hatch Green Chili Breakfast Bowl. I can't even begin to describe how absolutely PERFECT it is. I talked two other people into trying it, after they heard me going on and on about it. After two bites, they sounded exactly like me. Trust me, you're going...
