BJ's Coffee Co

There’s something about BJs Coffee Co in Forest Grove that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. From the moment you step inside, you feel it, soft natural light pouring in through large windows, warm tones, vintage décor that doesn’t feel forced, and an open layout that somehow makes the place feel both cozy and expansive. It’s rare to find a coffee shop where it feels like time slows down. BJs has that effect. They’ve kept part of their history intact too. Near the entrance, you’ll spot the owner’s very first grinding machine, a reminder that this is more than just a café. It’s a family legacy. They import their beans from farms in South America and grind them in house, which explains why their coffee has such depth and freshness. I ordered a pour over and could immediately tell i

My alltime favorite coffeeshop. I've been coming here for decades (albeit I'm not drinking off the kids menu anymore), and the quality and cost continues to be great. I recommend it to anyone who will listen. A great community gathering space with local art, friendly staff, and the encouragement to relax and stay a while. Truly lovely London Fogs, Matchas, Italian Sodas, and pastries.

Excellent cheddar broccoli soup - best I’ve had in a many a year! Excellent latte also: hot, creamy and could taste the coffee. Very slow service but friendly and worth the wait. Nice comfortable, cozy feel to the shop. We’ll be back 👍

Quaint locally owned coffee shop in the Forest Grove area. It definitely has a small town feel and relaxing vibe. This would be an ideal place to meet friends or work remotely. They even have a wide variety of single origin coffees to choose from to purchase by the bag. I greatly enjoyed my experience here overall, however, I still prefer the taste of the coffee at Slow Rise and Telvet slightly more than the coffee at BJ’s. With that being said, BJ’s is a great option in the local area and you won’t be disappointed supporting a high-quality local business in Forest Grove.

I came in for a coffee. John made it very clear that was only part of the experience. He was openly flirty, but in a smooth, effortless way but not over the top, not awkward. A comment about my choice being “safe,” a grin when I asked what he’d recommend instead. He leaned on the counter while he talked, like there was nowhere else he needed to be, like this conversation was the point. He suggested a drink the way someone suggests a secret. Told me why it worked, why I’d like it. While he made it, he kept the banter going with easy compliments, playful eye contact, just enough to make me forget I was standing in line in a public place. When he handed me the cup, he smiled and said, “Let me know if it’s what you were looking for.” It absolutely was. The coffee was excellent, smooth, bala
