If you find yourself wandering through the charming Nob Hill neighborhood of Portland, a stop at Nègociant is an absolute must. This delightful cafe doubles as a wine shop and offers a curated selection of charcuterie, cheeses, and light bites that make for a perfect respite, whether you're starting your day or enjoying a leisurely afternoon.

The atmosphere here is warm and inviting, enhanced by soft jazz melodies that fill the air, creating a cozy backdrop for friends catching up or travelers recharging. Nègociant embraces a European-inspired casual dining experience, where you can lounge with a glass of sparkling wine or a refreshing Nitro Cold Brew while indulging in their delectable offerings.

Start your culinary journey with the Side Green Salad, a crisp medley of mixed greens, radishes, fennel, drizzled with olive oil and red wine vinegar—a refreshing palette opener. For heartier fare, satiate your cravings with their Caesar Salad, combining the robust flavors of escarole with a creamy Caesar dressing and a sprinkle of artisanal breadcrumbs, anchovies, and egg yolk that elevate the taste to new heights. If you prefer something to savor alongside a fine glass of wine, the Italian salami sandwich or the Bresaola salad comes highly recommended and is perfect for light bites.

No visit would be complete without treating yourself to their signature pastries. The Lemon Pound Cake with its zesty swirls and the rich Caramel Pecan Tart are delightful options that promise a sweet ending to your meal.

A nice small shop that has plenty of wine, cheeses, small snacks, and also some simple food. We came here for a quick and small snack. We ordered an Italian salami sandwich and a Bresaola salad. The salad was very refreshing, and the sandwich was good. It's a good place to come and hang out for a bit.

An excellent restaurant on 21st. I had the ham and Brie sandwich with chips and coffee and it was very reasonably priced. Many of the other tables had glasses of wine and it is a nice and relaxing place to have a glass.

Really nice place to hang out and just enjoy a sunny day! The food was good but in my opinion quite pricey. They charge $2 for butter for your bread, was not disclosed until the bill came.

The food, the wine, the music, and decor of Nègociant makes a vibe that is not only unique for the Nob Hill neighborhood but is an absolute delight to experience. We tried the sparkling and rose wines with our sandwiches and they were absolutely amazing. Enjoying our food with the jazz playing in the background made it such a cozy dinner. Nègociant is definitely a must visit in Portland, and I will continue to come back just for that tuna melt alone. Highly recommend!!

We love the selection of charcuterie and cheese platters. The house pickles were delicious. Everything we tried was fresh, paired well with our beverages, and all delivered with the nicest staff. Shopped the market after. It's a great relaxing nibbles stop to re-energize.
