Spella Caffe

Spella Caffe Portland Coffee Rosters proud to represent Italian espresso in the Pacific Northwest Today, his love of coffee is shared by his loyal fans.

Raised above his family’s Chicago bakery, Andrea Spella began drinking espresso when he was old enough to raise a cup to his lips. For quality and consistency, this Portland, Oregon roaster develops deep relationships with coffee growers and roasts the beans himself, always aiming for the “sweet spot.” Somewhere between a light and dark roast, his beans boast a balance of sweet and bitter with a d

ark chocolate flavor and caramel finish. Coffee is what you put into it. For Spella, it’s heart and soul.

One interesting fact you may not know about Andrea Spella… he knows these Rancilio machines inside and out like a mechanic who’s niche training is classic cars. Overtime, this dedication to the mechanics of our craft has allowed him to fix all kinds of machinery himself when things break or need a tune up. He’s not only able to program these classic Italian machines for Spella Caffè’s specific needs and style, but he’s been a part of the distribution, installment, and maintenance of coffee machinery in many local markets, restaurants, and cafes! Grinders, brewers, washers, espresso machines… you name it! .usa definitely found a special place in his heart and ours— we all love these classic machines and we’re grateful that he’s always put in the extra effort to keep them in tip top shape for us and our partners- largely dedicating his time to support, inspection, quality control, and ongoing upkeep!

Spella’s carefully sourced beans are traditionally roasted low and slow, bringing out the depth, sweetness, and character that only patience can reveal. From the roaster’s craft to the barista’s artful presentation, every step is guided by artistry, precision, and respect for the espresso’s origin, taste, and profile.

If straight espresso is a bit strong for your taste, our cortado has become a simple staple for many regulars: half doppio ristretto, half perfectly steamed milk. Nothing to hide behind. Nothing to distract. Just an exquisite expression of espresso, softened only enough to let every nuance shine.

This is why cortados have become a favorite among those who truly love our espresso. You taste the roast. You taste the origin. You taste the craftsmanship. The flavor lingers long after your last sip.

Stand at the bar. Stay and sip. Connect and converse. Watch the world move around you for a moment. ☕️✨



Because sometimes the greatest luxury is a perfectly prepared coffee and the time to savor it.

We’re so grateful to share our espresso with customers across the country, while staying true to what has mattered most to us from the very beginning: handcrafted quality, respect for tradition, and a genuine love for espresso.

For us, coffee has always been about more than what’s in the cup. It’s about connection — to people, culture, hospitality, and the simple pleasure of a really satisfying espresso.

Thank you for being part of it. 🤎

Thanks for being patient with the construction happening in front of the caffè! It’s been loud but this community has been so gracious toward us while the city addresses the old pipes in preparation for the highly anticipated James Beard Public Market. We’re celebrating that things are definitely moving forward but don’t mind if we enjoy one of our in house Capaletti Spritz at the end of a noisy shift. Feel free to join us!🤣

Our flagship café in downtown Portland embodies the spirit of Spella Caffè: a tiny, classic Italian espresso bar where craft meets connection. There, espresso is prepared in the traditional way—on a Rancilio lever machine, by hand-pulling from head to heart— a sense of ritual and artistry presented in each drink. Paired with our warm, gracious hospitality, this experience has fostered a loyal and longstanding care for our community who value both quality and authenticity.☕️✨

We work closely with producers who prioritize sustainable agriculture and equitable practices, ensuring that every bean reflects not only exceptional quality but also responsible stewardship and respect for the communities behind it. This commitment extends from farm to cup, shaping every aspect of our process.

Cheers to all the cultivators!☕️✨
