Their Cold Brew Is Their Claim To Fame
In 2017 Cascadia’s cold brew recipe began to grow in popularity. A result of this was that Cascadia entered into a partnership with Maletis Beverages.
Maletis Beverages are one of the biggest distributors of beverages in the Pacific Northwest.
This deal led to Cascadia’s cold brew to be available in over 160 outlets. The company also offers a wholesale service for local cafes, restaurants, and bakeries.
Their Beverage Menu Offers Coffee, Beers, Wines & Cocktails
This outlet serves its specialty coffees. They also offer ten craft beers on tap, some local wines, and a small range of cocktails. The Coffee Pub also has a variety of tea from The Jasmine Pearl Tea Company. There is something for everyone.
Their Breakfast and Lunch Menu Has Classic
Cascadia offers breakfast and lunchtime sandwiches that are made on the premises. They also serve locally produced Spielman bagels, pastries from another local source Gabriel’s Bakery, and gluten-free treats from the New Cascadia Bakery.

Behind the counter along the back wall are a run of beer taps and large chalk menu boards. Further along, the bar is a glass food covering inside, which is a range of foods. On the wall behind that is a row of different wine bottles. The outside is a functional brick, modern look with dark-colored window frames.
Cascadia Coffee Pub is a beautiful combination of bar and coffee shop serving cold brew coffee. Not quite so strong a food offering as other locations but enough to stop you going hungry.
