I Built an Unofficial Black Rock Coffee Menu Guide (70+ Drinks, Prices, and a Calorie Calculator)

Hi, I'm Jake — a coffee enthusiast from Portland, Oregon. Over the past few weeks I've been building an unofficial guide to the Black Rock Coffee Bar menu, and I wanted to share what it looks like and how it came together.

The idea was simple: Black Rock has 70+ drinks across Fuel energy drinks, coffee and espresso, chillers, matcha, tea, and food — but no single page lists them all with prices. So I built Black Rock Coffee Menu, a free guide with every drink, typical US prices, and honest estimates where the official numbers aren't published.

A few things in the build:

  • WordPress + Kadence — 20+ pages, one per category, with price tables on each.
  • A calorie calculator for the 30+ most popular drinks, plus a popup for every drink with price, calories, and caffeine.
  • The Fuel section was the hardest part — 20 energy drink flavors with sizes and prices. The full Fuel energy drinks menu with prices took the longest to verify.
  • I also ranked the best Black Rock drinks based on the flavors people actually order.

Everything is labeled clearly as an unofficial guide — prices are typical US ranges, not official, and the nutrition numbers are estimates. The site is a work in progress: I'm adding new seasonal drinks as they appear.

If you've ever built a content site on WordPress, I'd love to hear how you handle price updates — that's the part that goes stale fastest. What do you use to keep data fresh?
