A new Trung Nguyên Legend Cafe is set to open in Portland, marking the brand's expansion in the U.S. This Vietnamese coffee giant is known for its unique brews and vibrant atmosphere. The cafe will feature a mix of traditional Vietnamese coffee drinks and European espresso options. The franchise owner, Brad Tran, aims to have the cafe ready by summer 2025.
• The cafe will be located at 8435 SE Powell Boulevard, in a space previously occupied by a billiard hall.
• The menu will highlight Vietnamese specialties like phin coffee, egg coffee, and kopi luwak, alongside a full restaurant menu featuring dishes like bahn mi and pho.
• There are plans for more locations in the Portland area, with Beaverton being a potential next site.
• The Portland cafe will span 1,800 square feet, providing ample space for customers to enjoy their coffee.
This expansion is significant as it taps into the growing demand for Vietnamese coffee in the Pacific Northwest. Portland has seen an increase in cafes serving phin-brewed drinks, making it a prime location for Trung Nguyên Legend Cafe. The arrival of this cafe will not only diversify the local coffee scene but also introduce more people to the rich flavors of Vietnamese coffee culture.
