What to know

Jet Fuel opened to offer Portlanders both exceptional espresso and a bold concept: a working cafe built from a McDonnell Douglas DC-8 cockpit. The founders paired top-tier equipment and coffee partners with a thoughtful restoration that acknowledges the plane’s history while repurposing it for community use. The result is a small but powerful neighborhood destination where craft coffee and storytelling land together.
