Really cool here, great music, chill vibe, and good coffee. I really enjoy their blend they have. It’s got a nice complexity to it that cools down to a nice bold flavor. They have electbike which is just insane. Overall sick place

Review №2

A super fun place! This retro-looking motorcycle-themed coffee shop is housed in a space filled with motorcycle artifacts from helmets to vinyl covers to artworks. You can get coffee, snacks, breakfast or lunch here, and even a free, beautiful Greetings from Portland postcard. I love it.

Fantastic experience. Very cool motorcycles and art work on display. I’m a gear head so this place was a lot of fun to visit. The coffee was really good too.

This spot is hip. I was not cool enough to go here. I felt honored by the respect in my mind morning sweats and unwashed hair. The vibe is very fun. People relaxing and working on their wifi it looked like. The coffee was good. There is a little shop attached with moto clothes available.

Absolutely love this place. Great collection of fanciful helmets. Friendly staff. Excellent latte. My only complaint is they usually run out of cookies too early. ;)

A great location to stop after Voodoo Doughnuts and before getting on the freeway to head out of the city! Honestly the best iced vanilla latte of my life. Super welcoming environment, too!

Such an amazing atmosphere and the baristas are so amazing! Im not sure their name but someone with a few tattoos on their arm and kind of floppy hair that’s kinda curly w/ a beanie who works on Wednesdays before noon was super kind and friendly and this cafe was probably one of the coolest I’ve went to, also really good latte that has a super unique and delicious taste !

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I stumbled across this place a couple weeks ago and now it is my new favorite spot to get my morning cup of joe.

Great coffee (stumptown). Hangout for cool biker people, food, beer, and snacks available. How about a hotdog? This is the place. There’s lots of character here, and they even have super cool bamboo straws, since plastic ones are banned in Portland.. because we care! Save the earth!

Stopped in for a scone and bagel. The barista at the register was super friendly and we stuck up a conversation about being California natives. Will definitely be back for coffee.

Review №14

The lady at retail store was not nice at all but baristas were excellent and very kind which was so refreshing after the retail girl who couldn’t be bothered to look up from her phone while ringing me up for a $28.00 on a T-shirt.

Review №21

Im in love with this idea. Getting to explore all of the coffee shops I have passed by for some reason is phenomenal.Not only is this a coffee shop this is a culture spot as well. A completely relaxed and unrushed environment where people are interacting and talking bikes out back .Definitely a dog friendly and bike-friendly environmentCan easily accommodate bike cruises meets and gatherings.I also highly recommend checking out their sale merchandise rack right now theres a bunch of really awesome goodies.I went with an ice mocha breve again since its nice and warm out. I was yet again pleasantly surprised with Rich flavorful sips.@ See See Motor Coffee Co

Review №22

Awesome coffee & super friendly kitchen staff! The decoration and aesthetic of the shop is exactly what you’d expect from a blend of motorcycles and caffeine! The Coconut #1 is out of this world, def recommend 👌🏼We left with a bittersweet ending though, given the girl behind the register at the gear shop this morning gave off a cranky, uninterested attitude and seemed unwilling to help when asked for some info....Other than that, great place to swing by for a quick energy refill!

See See is a great place. #1. Fantasmic coffee & treats. #2. Motorcycle Gods who put on THE best motorcycling events in the Pacific NW. The One Show is at the top of that list. #3. Total support and investment in Flat Track racing. When ever Im within 50 miles of SeeSee, I swing by for some caffeinated two wheeled love!!

Latte is near flavorless. Mocha is better. Drip is mediocre. Friendly staff. Unique & eclectic ambiance.

Review №36

Good coffee. Good ambiance, albeit the trying-hard-to-be-a-hipster vibe couldn’t be much stronger. If you’re a vintage motorcycle fan, you’ll either love it or hate it. Convenient if you also need to buy hipster motorcycle apparel for your ride around town on your cafe’ racer.

I havent been back since pre-covid days, but decided to stop by today and see how theyre running things. If youre at all nervous about small cafes, rest assured these guys have it well spaced out, and proper ppe is worn by staff and customers. People are respectful of distancing and it feels like normal, albeit with some tweaks. The coffee is awesome and Im glad to have my local shop back up and running. And after all this time of being away, I even missed the inescapable Portland hipsters who hang out there, haha. If you havent been, or been back, stop by and support these guys. 💜🖤

Came in here before heading home from Portland for coffee and breakfast. The breakfast burrito was amazing and their hot sauce was surprisingly amazing. The coffee was fresh and tasted delicious, just what we needed after a late night concert the night before! The service was very friendly and we really enjoyed coming here.

Review №52

Classic and simple coffee menu, and for a good reason, they make it very well full of robust aromas, thick notable flavors and with great quality. They definitely don’t need to prove themselves with unicorn colored sugar packed gimmicks and passive aggressive service. The idea behind it, its culture and unique blend of a cafe with the motorcycle nostalgia that encompasses throughout the shop takes me to this interesting place I can almost feel like I pulled up on a Brough Superior SS100 for a quick pick me up.

Fantastic vibe and a great meeting place to just sit around and talk shop with other motorcyclists. The breakfast sandwiches are really good and they also offer beer if youre feeling something I will different after your first cup or four. A must stop in for the area.

Very very few people there. Still cannot get any service. Left to another place to get some service. Cool interior with some old motorcycles that was it.

Review №56

Moto culture cafe at its very best. Great barista skills, though food menu could be a bit more robust. But where it falls short food-wise, it makes up for by knowing what it is and doing it well: good tunes, motorcycle culture icons and the cafe racer spirit.

I love the apparel and accessories shop. They carry Simpson helmets, I think the only remaining made in America brand. Espresso is exceptional. They have some cool memorabilia and a few bikes to look over. Great place for the motorcycle enthusiast.

Super Rad spot to have a nice cup of coffee and just kick it. The staff is amazing and the regulars are very regular. A nice spot with a tight community. Also full of some awesome snacks if you get hungry and a pretty good beer selection if the caffeine gets overwhelming.

Awesome coffee, awesome wears. I really wish I could afford the $330 sweater, but I need that money to fix my old bike, because its an old bike, and besides its a sweater... a very cool one. I did buy two shirts though. The friendly staff is so awesome that when I told them I was from Texas they didnt make me leave. If I had kids I would drop them off here and let them watch them. Nicole is a babe. These dudes (by which I mean both boy dudes and girl dudes) also put on The 1 Show, thanks dudes! I give them 10 out 10ccs.

The coffee and food here are decent but you dont really come here for that. The motorcycles and the motorcycle history make this place unique and fun. Dont forget to wear all black, grow out your beard, and have tattoos on display, or you might feel out of place.

Fantastic coffee shop. If you love motorcycles, youre in a good spot. If you dont, not a problem either. Lots of seating, lots of outlets, and lots of choices on the menu. I also had their happy hour special - hot dog plus a beer.The only thing that is bad is that they close really early.

A trendy coffee shop with wonderful people and snazzy decor. See Sees provides an relaxing atmosphere with delicous, re-energizing drinks. Their Flat White is well-prepared, and the addition of an orange peel accents the bitterness nicely.The coffee shop is right next door to the Motorcycle shop, which you have to pass through to get inside. I havent bought a motorcycle yet so I cant provide a review at this time.

Review №89

Cool to see some of the helmets on display. Loved the decor and the stools from global industrial are the finest of shop stools.Im a plain coffee black kinda guy so Im not the go to resource on coffee, but the breakfast sandwich was dope.The cashiers and baristas were almost comically disillusioned. While I can see the general public seeking a warmer welcome, I thoroughly enjoyed sipping my coffee and watching customers politely trying to avoid the wrath from behind the counter. To be fair, she did call his name like 10 times to tell him that his toast was done.

Review №99

Rad place to check out! The artwork and motorcycle paraphernalia decorated around the shop is a nice touch. They offer some pastries and possibly some food? I ordered the #1 which is called the coconut. Which is basically an americano with steamed coconut milk on top as well as some Orange zest. Not the biggest orange zest person but the dude working recommended it and it was awesome. Definitely a fan. They have nice big open windows and side room to get some work done on your computer or notepad. Great seating around the building and it’s nice to see a place that’s great for motorcyclists. There is another place in town that is great for motorcyclists called PDX speed shop and it’s in the pearl in NW- I recommend it if you’re in the area! Cheers :~)

Great coffee, friendly staff, cheap eats. Dig the Field Notes helmet and the fact that whether you look the part or not, youre made to feel at home. Outside seating is super dog-friendly, too.If I could deduct half a star, I would...for the lack of A/C. Its hot in here!
