Nestled on Couch St., Deadstock Coffee serves up unique drinks in a vibrant space filled with sneaker and sports flair, making it a must-visit for coffee lovers.
"Proving the Venn diagram of sneakerheads and coffee obsessives has plenty of overlap, Deadstock serves bright, sweet house roasts with names like Fresh Prince and Slow Jamz, listed with flavor notes of “fruity pebbles” or “cinnamon toast.” The café has no posted menu. Instead, patrons order any of the coffee shop standards here (with a sneaker-shaped stencil of cocoa powder if you ask nicely). Warm weather specialties include Zero Chill, a blend of coffee and sweet tea, or the similar LeBronald Palmer, a blend of coffee, lemonade, and sweet tea. The business expanded with a much larger second space in Beaverton in 2024." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Sneaker-themed Deadstock Coffee is located in a small storefront that sells fun merch as well as house roasts with names like Dark Jawn and Slow Jamz. Customers can order photo-worthy lattes adorned with a powder Nike hightop or grab-and-go offerings like the LeBronald Palmer, a blend of coffee, lemonade, and sweet tea." - Zoe Baillargeon, Eater Staff
"A cafe where owner Ian Williams serves espresso drinks and the cafe’s signature Lebronald Palmer." - Janey Wong

For more space to hang out and work, Concourse Coffee across the river is from the same owner and roaster, Ian Williams." - Katrina Yentch, Nathan Williams
"Former Nike developer Ian Williams’s Deadstock Coffee in Portland’s Old Town not only makes some of the best coffee in Portland, it cultivates an inviting community atmosphere, where both regulars and traveling sneakerheads sip lattes and debate Jordan III vs XI." - Nathan Williams
