Universal Coffee — Restaurant in Beaverton

Really disappointed with the breakfast burrito. Ordered a to-go vegetarian burrito with sour cream and red salsa. The tortilla is hard, the beans are undercooked, the filling very bland and not spicy at all, and the side salsa is super watery. I’m disappointed because it was marked as “spicy”, but I’d give it a 0 or 1/5 for spice level altogether.

I was really craving a breakfast burrito, but I was definitely not satisfied with this. I’d say the inside needs more flavoring/seasoning, individual components could be prepared better, and the salsa needs major improvement.

I’ll continue on my hunt for the best veggie breakfast burrito. I will say the pricing is better than most spots, but I’d rather pay $3-$5 and get a better burrito.

The drinks here are good though! Love the flavors...

i love their coffee! i recently discovered this place and i have been obsessed with it since. really rich flavors, i love their mochas. their horchata cold brew is also another 10/10

EDIT: I stopped coming here because of one employee who I’ve had bad experiences with, each time I order a coffee (didn’t matter if it was order ahead or in person) but he just took such a longggg time to prepare my drink, Juan the owner is much more quicker and effective at his job. Not to mention the drink I got was the wrong drink, I had ordered a regular chai and the man with glasses long hair and a pony tail, he made me a tumeric chai..the taste was horrible. After the long wait the employee handed me my drink and said I appreciate you waiting, well I don’t give me my...

Easily the best coffee shop in Albany (in my humble opinion). If you're in to Second Wave coffee (emphasis on sugar, syrups, flavors, whipped cream, and not on coffee) then go to Starbucks, Dutchbros, Snow peak, etc. If you like Third Wave style coffee (emphasis on quality beans, roasting, extraction, etc.) then this is the place for you.

Fine coffee can be enjoyed for all the types of nuances and subtleties found in wine, beer, scotch, etc. If that's what you're into - and you want coffee in Albany - I'm not aware of any other place.

It's certainly not as good as some places you can go in Corvallis, Salem, Portland (think Coava, Dapper/Wise, Courier, Tried and True, etc.), but is certainly the finest...
