That said, Barista Society is going to try to make some changes to their seating area, and add outdoor seating as well. The new owners of the US Bank tower are more amenable to that apparently. Despite the current corporate decor their coffee making is probably the best in downtown, if not one of the tops in the city. They're also doing a variety of smaller roasters beyond Stumptown and Intelligentsia, which I find really refreshing.

I feel like an idiot.
I thought there wasn't anything on BH or near the MC and you literally named one in both places that I'd never even heard of. Amazing! I immediately googled both Redcat Lounge and Barista Society and they look/sound terrific. I've been up the Library Tower stairs a million times and I guess I just never noticed Barista. Thanks for helping me figure out what I'm doing this weekend! Stoked to check 'em out.
