Hands down the best latte I have had in a long time! Everything was so fresh! You can tell the coffee was recently grind. Great customer service, at least the guy that attended us, he was helpful, funny and very courteous. We weee all happy w the quality of the coffee, Can’t wait to go back! The 4 star is only because the limited menu, but everything was delicious !!

Cute little coffee shop, with lots of seating to work or have a meeting. Their cold brew is very good, and all their pastries are very amazing as well. A little pricey but worth it. The service is also really friendly. Worth a stop for a great coffee!

I liked it so much that I went twice in one day. With housemade syrups (maple, cocoa, vanilla, caramel, and honey), expert latte art, a banging soundtrack, and a staff with camaraderie, I spent a perfectly pleasant Sunday lounging about and enjoying drinks. There's bar-height seating, counter-height seating, and tables. The espresso profiles are textbook: long on the finish and not bitter. If you want a true coffee place in Portland, this is the one.

Absolutely stellar coffee and great service. I accidentally spilled my coffee across the table and the barista insisted on giving me a replacement on the house.

Good for those rainy day or mid-day pick-me-ups.

Bard has great coffee!! All of the baristas were super kind and offered suggestions for things to do around town. There were plenty of tables and places to sit. Definitely recommend!!

The coffee shop came highly rated. We were only in Portland for one day, so we wanted to find one nearby. The shop has some amazing homemade syrups--my partner and I both got the maple which was pretty great. The vibe is exactly what you want it to be: a casual local coffee shop with no frills or gimmicks! The service was amazing and we were able to get a ton of recommendations on things to do from the baristas there. I can't say I was blown away by the chocolate croissant we had, but that's not what brought us in so I can't hold that against them.

Had an impromptu stay in Portland and was in need of some coffee. The reviews mentioned great space and service and excellent coffee, and this place did not disappoint. This spot will be on my list for the next visit up to Maine!

Busy, loud, and totally worth it. The best cappuccino I've had in months and it wasn't expensive.

Bard is one of my favorite coffee shops in all of Portland. Thanks to their baristas and roasts, they offer some of the best coffee in town. There’s a lot of love and passion that goes into their coffee, and you can taste it with every sip. We’ve been going to Bard for over three years now. During the summer, a walk to their takeout window facing Tommy Park is a mandatory part of our weekend routines. During fall and winter, their indoor space provides a cozy spot to people-watch (sit by the windows!) or get some work done. You can’t beat the location either — right in the heart of Portland.I think something that sets Bard apart from other places is the service. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. I’ve spoken with the owner and management, and they’re always a joy to interact with. When I received a Bard shirt for Christmas that was too small, they quickly allowed me to exchange it, even though I didn’t have a receipt. It’s the little things that make Bard such a gem — like their locally sourced pastries.

Always a pleasure to stop in Bard! The staff is very friendly, hard working, and the drinks are always delicious and consistent. Definitely the type of coffee shop where you can trust anything off their menu!
