Deadstock bills itself as "snob-free" and uses the slogan "Coffee should be dope".[2] Drinks include the Steph Curry (white chocolate mocha), the Lebronald Palmer (mixture of coffee, sweet tea, and lemonade), and the Luther Vandross (lavender mocha). Drinks can be topped with stenciled sneakers (Adidas, Jordans, Nikes, or Reebok).[3] The chai lattes are made with One Stripe Chai.[4]
The business began as a cart and has operated a sneaker-themed[5] coffee shop in the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood since August 2015.[6][7] In 2020, the business saw a spike in business,[8][9] and owner Ian Williams confirmed plans to open a location at Alberta Alley, a new development in northeast Portland.[10]
In 2023, Deadstock Coffee and the Haitian restaurant Kann collaborated to launch a custom coffee blend.[11]
In 2020, Williams was included in Portland Business Journal's top 40 under 40 list.[12][13] Nick Townsend included Deadstock in Eater Portland's 2021 list of "11 Places to Find Charming Chai Lattes in Portland".[4]
