This is one of the best cups of coffee I’ve ever had. I love the vibe in this coffee shop, relaxing, music, and a nice ambience. I will definitely be coming back!
What do I like besides it being the best coffee in Portland, Maine? The staff! They're cool and they rock.
All coffees can be made vegan as well as food items. Too many choices for just one visit! The blueberry crisp and vegan breakfast sandwich were fantastic. Also, very knowledgeable and also vegan staff members!

The Proper Cup is a highly recommended coffee shop that offers high-quality drinks at reasonable prices. The spacious interior has a picturesque "coffee shop" atmosphere, with plenty of natural light and seating, creating a hangout spot for visitors. The friendly staff serves delicious Maple Lattes and Caprese Toast, along with popular items like the honey lavender latte, avocado toast, and ice mocha latte, all made to high standards. This establishment is environmentally aware, and studying is encouraged, as phone calls and video meetings are not allowed to respect the peaceful atmosphere. Customers appreciate the variety of vegan options, including a vegan breakfast sandwich and vegan drinks beyond coffee. While some reviews mention that the outside seating could be more comfortable, the inviting interior fosters a community-minded vibe. The cozy environment and friendly staff make it a great place for coffee and small bites, ensuring that visitors can sit and enjoy their snacks or drinks even when it gets busy.
