Buckman Coffee Factory
Located at 1105 SE Main Street in Portland’s Central Eastside, the Buckman Coffee Factory is situated in the heart of what is quickly becoming known as the Roasters’ Row. The Factory was conceived from equal parts idealistic inspiration and practical consideration.
Our Dream In Motion
Brainchild of a handful of local coffee veterans, the factory concept came together after years studying the trends in the specialty coffee world and identifying key service gaps that currently plague small roasters and specialty farmers. Our dream — now set in motion — has been to create a neutral, public space where coffee professionals could pursue their ambitions in a creative, adaptive, and welcoming space.
The Building
The Buckman team was keen to keep the building’s original character and design in mind when updating it for its current use.
Formerly home to a local printing press, we brought the building back to life in a way befitting the industrial character and history of the neighborhood, but with an updated look and feel to engage the public.
The Factory now houses the following facilities: all of which are open to the coffee public for rent
Cupping Room
a light-filled educational space, available for public and private coffee events and hosting on a regular basis.
Roasting Floor
a highly adaptive, roomy, and efficient space, where roasters can rent time on our newly installed equipment.
