I’m always surprised when someone tells me they have never heard of Cera. I’ve been 30+ times and have never once had a bad sandwich, everything is always so fresh and so many different flavors. The best sandwiches around!
October 2025
The sandwiches were delicious- fresh with unique combinations. Tried the Turks and chaos and a mushroom panini-both fantastic. Would have taken a picture had we not inhaled them both.
September 2025
Excellent cold sandwiches, wraps, salads, and paninis with some of the best value for your money in downtown Portland. They have a limited (but very good) vegetarian selection, with one vegetarian item per section of the menu.
