A&C GROCERY

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.

Really good food, good service, able to sit outside. The Italian and pulled pork sandwiches were very good. Will be going back to try the breakfast sandwiches.

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!

I'm still thinking about my Italian sandwich days after having eaten it. From the roll, down to the sliced-to-order cold cuts, this thing was a marvel. There are a ton of flavors working together, with no single one overpowering any of the others. We were visiting from out of town and were lucky enough to be told about this spot. Don't miss it!

Oh yeah, Joe is pretty cool too.

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.
