Kirva Coffee Roasters

vancouver, washington doesn't always get its due. it sits just across the columbia river from portland, a city that's spent decades defining what serious coffee culture looks like in the pacific northwest, and that proximity creates a kind of pressure to perform. kirva coffee roasters on mill plain boulevard takes a different approach entirely, focusing on the roasting side of things rather than chasing a particular aesthetic. for you, that means the coffee you're drinking has been thought about at the source level, not just at the point of service. the standing here reflects a place that's figured out what it does and doesn't waver from it. if you're in east vancouver and need a reason to stop, mill plain at midmorning is a good one.
