No Wave Coffee

7510 N Portsmouth Ave., 503-583-7326. 6 am-3 pm Monday-Friday, 7 am-3 pm Saturday-Sunday.

A short walk from the University of Portland, No Wave is a prototypical '90s-to-'00s campus coffee shop that doesn't feel intentionally retro. The prices, however, are a throwback, and it's a relaxed space to study, take in local art, and enjoy a gluten-free pastry.
