Crispy enough to crunch, soft enough to enjoy. A good bake.
Summary
The Stazione, a new Italian cafe and wine bar in Portland's Buckman neighborhood, offers an all-day dining experience inspired by owner Graham Markel's childhood in Italy. Unlike most Portland cafes, it's designed for customers to stay from morning espresso through evening wine, embodying the Italian tradition of train station cafes as communal gathering spots. Located near Portland's train tracks, the cafe's name nods to both Italian culture and its physical location.
Key quotes
· 3 pulledThe idea of communal, everyday gathering spaces is something that's deeply rooted in Italian culture.
Portland is not an all-day cafe town. Great coffee shops? Sure. Places to grab a quick bite for lunch? Absolutely. But, it's rare to stay in one place from dawn till dusk.
Stazione translates to 'station' in Italian — a nod to both his history and the cafe's location being one block up from Portland's own train tracks.
