Stopped in for a sandwich today and it was awesome!!! Highly recommend it. Truly a gem on the East End.
$6 sandwiches from heaven, milk from a farm an hour away (always get your meat and dairy from local farms), and fresh produce. In and out in a couple minutes which is fantastic. So glad they are in the neighborhood!
Don’t miss the pulled pork sandwich. The REAL Italian is a marvel of sandwiches. Expect to hang out with good conversation while Joe prepares awesome food. A&C also has one of the best breakfast sandwiches in town. Beer and wine available to bring home or consume on the premises. Locally sourced produce available in season. While on Washington Ave. do not make the mistake of passing this gem.
Update 8/26/19 Full beer selection to enjoy with their great sandwich’s. In house smoked Pastrami is now available!
This establishment serves food. I think it tastes good, and it is carefully prepared using arguably well-sourced ingredients. If you expect to be treated like royalty, don’t bother. If you expected to be treated fairly and like an equal, step right up and order a darned good sammich.
Great owner, friendly staff, fun events! Interesting selection of wine, cheese, and staples! Everything from fruity pebbles to fennel! We had lots of fun at the rosé tasting this weekend.
Mmmmm Pulled pork, Slaw and some pickles.. the best (even without bread)👌💕, also a kombucha from The Portland Zoo 🎇
Solid food, kind gentleman who took our order and great music. Had the cheeseburg. Tasty! I wanted the Italian but will have it next time. Also, they serve Carlsberg, so how can you not like this place?
One of the best cheeseburgers you can get in Portland. And by far the best Italian. Customer service is great and Joe is always willing to get to know his customers on a personal level. Stop in and stay awhile. Wont regret it.
Amazing pulled pork sandwich! I am a pulled pork sandwich aficionado and this was top notch. The aroma of the smoky pork is what hits you first but it's the slaw dressing and the sauce combined with that pork that really pulls (no pun intended) it all together. And he stocks some great local craft beers. I will bring my pulled pork-loving friends here and they will buy me beer for introducing them to the greatness of A & C.
I do not want to write this review. I'm going to say it's one of the best lunch spots in Portland, a true hidden gem. I'll go on about the fabulous food, the best burger, a great house made pastrami, a stellar breakfast sandwich etc etc. I'll probably ramble on about how awesome the people working there are, all friendly and helpful - genuinely happy to make you happy with the food. I might even mention the fantastic social media presence they maintain. Seriously, they have pot pies in the winter. But here's the thing, if I write all that great stuff you will just end up going there again and again and again because you will fall in love with it like I have. Then you'll tell all your friends to go here and then they will love it. That will be bad for me, because I won't be able to get a seat. So, bottom line - don't go here. I will let you know when it is safe to do so. OK, maybe go once, only so you know how good food can actually be.
