Ace Hotel Review, Part 2:: Stumptown





Also in the Ace hotel is a great midtown pit stop or hang out for a hot drink: Stumptown. Stop for a gourmet cup of coffee, or as with The Breslin, your dose of all things hipster. This light filled storefront has busy bee workers in bow ties and glasses filling espresso shots and steaming milk. We love the white, cream and brown palette and the grandness of the coffee bar. Grab a latte on your walk by or stop and enjoy it in their awesome lobby with their mismatched furniture, board games, library desks with hard-at-work apple laptops, and the best finishing touch : a gargantuan American Flag as the backdrop. Oh, and another bonus, Stumptown is camera friendly.

  2. Listen to heard Nickel Creek's "Stumptown"- it was inspired by the cafe and all things coffee.

  7. So glad that you got to satisfy your love and talent for more great photography at Stumptown. And to think, I've walked by here countless times--it's practically my backyard--and never wandered in. Will have to remedy that. Thanks for the peek inside!
