Portrait Coffee

This new coffeehouse is a perfect fit for the Lottie Watkins Building on Ralph David Abernathy. Watkins, a civil rights leader and politician, was the first Black woman to earn her real estate license in Atlanta. Portrait pays homage to the area’s proud past with a space that’s cool, cute, and accented with vintage cameras and Black-authored books on shelves next to branded tumblers. While remote workers peck away at their laptops, decide if you’re going with a solid espresso ($3, all java roasted on site) or something more fun, like the cinnamon-sprinkled Aunt Viv iced latte ($5.50). Either way, your hunger will be history once you add a massive cinnamon roll ($6) to the mix.
