50 Best Sandwich Shops in Portland

“Really delicious, and so happy to have a Japanese sandwich cart in Portland. I loved the Pork katsu!“

“Passed by this place several times & today we finally stopped in and gave it a shot. So glad we did!

We split the beef bulgogi bahn mi & spicy Momo’s. All of it so delicious and perfectly balanced. Veggies were pickled wonderfully & don’t pass up on the hot chai. Great fresh comfort food & kind staff. Ate it too fast for a photo. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Portuguese muffins are my favorite. When visiting my grandparents Newport, RI, the muffins were always my favorite for breakfast - and in the past I have asked family to mail me muffins on occasion. Lottie & Lula's breakfast sandwiches on the muffins are to die for. I always get a 4-pack of muffins to take home. If you have never tried coffee milk, it is also an amazing Rhode Island treat! ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Never fails best sandwiches in oregon they are the best“

“Came here with my bro before the clown show, wow! Cubano and dirty fries was the shizz!“

“I have only had the Zombie sandwich. All of them look good but I saw that I could have mustard and Russian dressing I almost fell over.“

“Loved the name so stopped in!!! Our sandwiches were 10 out of 10!!! highly recommend the #4 and #5!!!“

“A genuinely excellent restaurant that gets the details right. The food was fresh, generous, and absolutely delicious. The staff made us feel welcome and well looked after throughout. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection. Our server's recommendations were spot on. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully laid out. The value for the quality and care was outstanding. The consistency is remarkable, and that reliability keeps us coming back. The portions were generous and the quality was outstanding. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. The atmosphere added so much to the overall experience. Highly recommend to anyone in the area.“

“Great service and sandwiches! 👍“

“I absolutely love this place. They were out of a few things today and worked exceptionally hard to find solutions (husband is very happy with his soup and focaccia!).

I especially love you because my blind babe is named Bastion which automatically makes me think of you

Thank you for your kindness and great service.

Ps. The current special sandwich is 🔥!

Picture of Bastion because… why not? ❤“

“Busy lunch spot, and very clean. I went here because multiple people in the office were talking about how delicious their food was. Came here for a large order and the staff let me know how they prepared their sandwiches and were able to bag my order super speedy! Tuna sandies for satiating protein and a perfectly dressed Tuscan kale were our favorites.“

“Outstanding crispy chicken, but the bathroom situation was another absolute nightmare!

Mon dieu! I came to Jojo expecting a classy, sophisticated meal, and while the fried chicken and thick-cut jojos were practically a spiritual experience for my tastebuds, my stomach eventually insisted on a trip to the restroom. Naturally, the second I reached for the door, my worst fears were realized: the toilet handle started spinning on its own, a tiny pig thrust its head out from inside the bowl, and a bizarre, mirror-dwelling enemy Stand user tried to slice my ankles from behind the sink tile! I had to summon Silver Chariot at lightning speed just to shed its armor, slice the bathroom stall door into confetti, and execute a flawless, high-speed tactical retreat back to the dining patio. Jotaro didn't even look up from his table while I was screaming about pig toilets, but honestly, despite the extreme psychological trauma and near-death experience, those signature sauces are worth fighting through an enemy ambush every single time!“

“These guys have the most amazing Boba Tea selection and exceptional customer service. Their drinks have the perfect balance of flavor punchiness, creaminess, crunchy surprises, and their boba pearls are made in house right in front of you. Our fave is the classic Taiwanese Boba Tea. ❤😋“

“Food is exceptional! The NY Meatball sandwich is my favorite!“

“Nothing but good food with a great assortment of delicious things to eat. Fantastic owner operator!“

“Loved it so much, I made a TikTok montage, because I'm corny like that, but that sandwich. 💯👏🏾😎“

“Fantastico!!“

“The soup and sandwich combo hit the spot. I’m gluten free and the filling of the beet sandwich became the most amazing salad with rich flavors. Best gazpacho ever!! Will definitely be back.“

“TANAKA is a wonderful Japanese sandwich shop. A perfect destination for lunch. Spacious setting. You can take your time eating here & it has a calm ambiance.

Their Chicken Katsu Sando was delicious. It had a balanced ratio of fresh ingredients, flavours & texture. Love their iced Hojicha Latte. It was creamy, earthy, & refreshing. Staff were all friendly & attentive.

Top 5 eats in downtown Portland. 💯💎 Would definitely return to try their Curry & other menu items.“

“What can I say. Amazing. You should order one of everything. Hot lunch!“

“Great sandwiches, great atmosphere, great service. 11/10“

“Ruben sandwich was delicious!“

“When I heard that this place has Dutch Crunch bread for their sandwiches, I came running! Everything about this place is primo. In one door, out the other, wait for your name, and you're in sandwich heaven. The staff is beyond friendly. I can't wait for my next meal!“

“I would love to call Addy’s a “hidden” gem, but they are far too busy to ever be considered hidden! This cute sandwich shop is only open 4 hours a day, only Monday-Friday so if you want to try it you should plan to wait a bit for your food.

The wait is worth it however! They serve delicious sandwiches and salads, with generous portions for the price. I always enjoy checking what the daily sandwich and salad specials will be. They are usually creative, tasty, and healthy.

For me the tomato tapenade panini always hits the spot. They don’t skimp on the mozzarella! I usually get a turkey salad too, and it’s always chock full of cubed turkey and avocado.

The real pro tip here is to get some of the free sauces next to the water station. I love the green sauce they have. I would buy it by the bottle if I could!

The employees here are friendly! I mentioned that I wish I had gotten a side of the wild rice salad they had today, and the employee behind the register kindly gave me a sample!

Addy’s serves flavor, smiles, and good vibes! It’s definitely worth the wait for a tasty lunch at a reasonable price!“

“This place has REAL food. It has the kind of homemade sandwiches you wish you could make but dont have the resources , so, instead you head here and have a nice friendly conversation and a huge delicious meal! Totally worth it. Yum.“

“This was the best sandwich I’ve ever had. Everything is so fresh and high quality including fresh baked bread!!! I didn’t even get a chance to take a photo of my beautiful sandwich because I inhaled it right away. I will be back so soon omg so happy I found this spot!!“

“A fun little sandwich spot with tremendous heart in their sandwiches and service. A place that brings you back to the days sitting in the backyard as a kid eating a sandwich during the Summer. Will be back again. Oh ya...dont forget to try their amazing cookies. Its a must! Ty RCSC.“

“While visiting my adult children in Portland this weekend, they brought me here for brunch before traveling back home. What a gem of a find! Loved the atmosphere, sandwich was outstanding, I will return again when back in town.“

“I was looking for a quick bite to eat and this place was it! Big portion size, good price, and quick and friendly service. I really enjoyed the sandwich I got and look forward to trying some of their other sandwiches next time I'm in the area!“

“I don’t really ever post any reviews but I really wanted to make a review after the amazing service the 4 men working provided (2 in the front and the 2 in the kitchen) today around 250pm. They were super kind, receptive and helpful today. Thank you for making my day better!! 🩵“

“Jojo is one of our all-time family favorites. So gloriously indulgent, with all the fried chicken and the drippy toppings - the pickles! the jojo sauce! the slaw! Secret menu hack is to get the fried thigh - it's a steal - but personally I can't resist the Southern chicken sandwich. Oh, and the fried tofu is terrific and DEFINITELY don't sleep on the Brussels sprouts, they're out of this world. Love Jojo. Love.“

“Check out Katie's, if you are in the downtown Portland area. Always great food and specials, the staff is always friendly and service is quick.“

“LOVED IT!!! Brought back memories of theGreat Sub Shop sub I had back in the 80's!Definitely will be back. Didn't know there were any "real" Sub Shops around anymore. Really missed that flavor. Yum! I had what they call the Holiday. Turkey with cream cheese, cranberry sauce and lettuce. Hubby had the Full Boat. All meats and toppings.“

“Good food speedy service.“

“no place to sit so beware and can take about 15min to get your food but so well worth the wait! delicious food we will continue coming back“

“I visit here on a regular basis as it's very close to my job and a place I can get in and out of pretty quickly. It's service goes above and beyond. I love the owner and it's workers. They are friendly and fast. I always order the bulgogi without lettuce, tomato and peppers and it's honestly so good, I'm afraid to try anything else but their menu is so large I know without a doubt I'd like pretty much anything offered. My kids and husband also enjoy the bulgogi as well as the teriyaki chicken and spicy pork bowl. I definitely recommend“

“This Jersey Mike’s has amazing subs! I have come here quite a bit since they have opened and I love getting their chicken bacon ranch and their clubs!“

“Love this place, Great food an service. I go ther every chance I get“

“I always like my food from east side deli and the staff is always friendly.“

“I go here often because the sandwiches are remarkable! I live in Salem and every time I visit my family I have to stop in and always get more than I needed because the whole store is filled with great selections, beer for the family, specialty dips ,ice cream for the kids. A true Bodega and locals favorite!!! You won't regret any of there subs and the employees rock!“

“Snappy’s is the most underrated local sandwich shop in Portland. Soo good. I can’t even put into words how delicious the sandwiches are here. Go here if you want to support local and eat well for it. I love the nostalgic vibe, the history, and the way they stayed true to their roots without compromise“

“I went out at 2:20 in the morning to get something to eat. I did not expect to eat one of the best meals I’ve had in a while at that price range. The store owner was very nice and gave me a few recommendations for what to eat and he made an excellent choice because the food was amazing. The environment around the outside of the store was a little rough but that was not the store owners fault and shouldn’t take away from the quality of the food. Overall a great place to eat, would recommend for a night munch.“

“Monkey subs has been by far the best sub shop in town for over a decade, but lately their sandwiches have changed. I’m not sure if they changed their bread but lately it has tasted hard and stale and the meat portions have dwindled to only a few slices. They used to load the meat on. Might give it one last shot but it’s not what it used to be.“

“Food was awesome! Great flavor on the meats and owners super friendly!“

“I have never been to a food cart with such cheerful customer service. You can tell the folks who run it, own it, as their joy in their faces when you step up to talk sandwiches! Delicious and fresh, would highly recommend if you are after a quality sandwich, blows the box store sandwiches awayyyyyy.Plus female owner and operated ☺️“

“I been here twice had the turkey sandwich on slice bagel bread the 1st time and the 2nd time I had the tune on slice bagel bread and the mango tea. so far I love this place everything nice and clean and excellent customer service. I will be back.“

“My original JM was the OG in Point Pleasant, NJ. I’ve been coming for years- all over the country. Today, the online order counter was packed to the brim, when that got done the line was almost to the door. The staff working was super friendly, helpful and patient while I figured out my points, made me a delicious sandwich, was speedy with all guests and were racing, ever so calmly in demeanor to clean tables. As a restaurant manager, I honestly wanted to steal all of the employees and have them come work for me. Thank you so much for another yummy dinner and handling the pressure so well!“

“While I can also easily visit the Hollywood & Couch locations, I've always enjoyed stopping by the Fremont location as well (it's right off the 8 bus on the way to/from Alberta street). The store is quite busy but is also well-stocked, organized, & carries the customary large number of vegan-friendly products & brands. I'm am glad to have the Fremont location of Whole Foods nearby!“
