Due to a 6oz lid shortage in the early days, I always ask for it in an 8oz cup to go and still do although those smaller lids are now available; somehow the larger cup feels right and maybe I get a bit more milk. I've had the regular coffee a couple of times - I forget the roast but the flavor has always been smooth with very little bitterness. Definitely a step up from the Starbucks round the corner! Be prepared for lines at Stumptown and although their baristas are super friendly (I love their hats and vests they wear), they lack a bit of the hustle to get you moving.
