Nuvrei (also known as Nuvrei Bakery,[1] Nuvrei Patisserie and Cafe,[2] and Nuvrei Pastries)[3] is a bakery in Portland, Oregon, United States.[4][5]
Key Information
Description and history
[edit]Nuvrei is a pâtisserie in northwest Portland's Pearl District. The menu has included macarons, pretzel croissants, and sandwiches.[6]
The business is owned by Marius Pop. In 2010, Nuvrei announced plans to open an upstairs cafe.[3] The cafe opened in October 2011.[1] Paul Losch was announced as chef in 2012.[7] In early 2014, Nuvrei announced plans to open Macaron Bar (or "Mac Bar") downstairs.[6] The upstairs cafe closed temporarily for renovations in January 2015; during this time seating was expanded in the downstairs Brioche Week and the business launched Brioche Week to offer additional pastries.[8] In May, Nuvrei reopened with a new aesthetic and a "totally revamped menu with a new, much more intense emphasis on pastries".[9]
Heart Coffee Roasters began serving Nuvrei pastries in 2015.[10] Nuvrei expanded with a second location in 2016; no seating was offered when the new concept Pop Bagel opened in the lobby of the U.S Bancorp Tower.[2]
