The Very Best Pizza In The Portland Metro Area! 14 Locations To Ser...


Dessert Noir Cafe & Bar aims to be Beaverton's premier dessert destination. With the modern style, creativity, and intimacy of cafes, bars, and lounges in places like New York's SoHo and Greenwich Village or London's Notting Hill, this award-winning restaurant offers more than the name implies with small plates and appetizers, specialty cocktails, wine, and handcrafted desserts. We also feature live music, local art, and special events. When you dine here, we want to "transport" you to another place where you forget you're in "suburbia."
