    Sandwiches and wraps are so difficult to get right but this spot knows how to make them perfectly. Both the wrap and sandwich were filling and flavorful, I honestly was overwhelmed by the amount of options we had to pick from! Every option comes with a side of chips that you get to choose! Also an awesome coffee spot, don't skip that coffee menu!

    Crooked Mile is a really cute little coffee shop. My friends and I stopped by on our way back to Boston to fuel up before the ride. They have all the necessities, including your standard coffee drinks and plenty of sandwich options. The service was a bit on the slower side, given it's a smaller shop, but that's to be expected. I'd be happy to come back again!

    The vibe in here is super cute, and we loved all of the drink options. Our breakfast sandwiches were decent. My chai was a little too sweet, but my husband enjoyed his coffee!

    Cozy little coffee shop with pastries and a nice menu of sandwiches. Friendly staff, service was a bit slow but there isn't a lot of space to move around. Some tables inside and I think during good weather there is seating outside.

    the Greek wrap

    Crooked Mile has become one of my favorite little sandwich spots. They have a good-sized menu for coffee drinks, and a big sandwich/salad selection (basically anything you can get as a sandwich or wrap can also be a salad). Fancy? Nope. Reliably delicious? Definitely! A couple of my favorites are the Greek wrap, the Cobb salad or wrap, and the Buffalo chicken wrap, which has a wonderfully spicy dressing. You can sit inside or out, but I tend to grab and go--the Brighton Ave. location is easy to swing into on your way somewhere else. Very friendly staff too, and my orders never take long even at peak times. The Old Port location for some reason doesn't have the same vibe and I definitely recommend the Brighton spot in particular. Stop by!

    This is my favorite midday stop, they're helpful, patient, and the drinks are good! There's an endless list of things to try thanks to all their flavored syrup options. It's a cozy, cute interior with outdoor picnic benches. I haven't tried the food

    What a great location, well for me that is. But isn't they what my review is? My perspective. Yes sir It works well for me when I have to work I Portland. I can drop my dog off at a Happy Tails then cross over on Stevens Ave and then campus down the street. Very convenient. They open early enough to be ready when I arrive. The staff is so friendly and make a pretty good iced vanilla latte. They have a great bakery selection but if you get there before 7:30 you might have to ask as they are prepping the items out back for display. They usually arrive a bit after 7:00. Yeah, I go there often to know the morning routine. The bagels are great and hit the spot, but they get it all. Muffins, scones, bagels, and the fancy ones too. Glad they were able to reopen after the drive thru incident. Those who frequent know what I am talking about. They do offer ice cream as well, but have not experienced that part yet. But look forward. Check it out, get a coffee and a treat as you are passing by but not through. :-)

    Overall, I enjoyed this place! It was a cute and a nice vibe. Small, neighborhood cafe, with extensive choices for lunch and breakfast. The workers themselves were very nice and accommodating to my strong hatred for tomatoes. They had drinks that you could chose from and you got a free bag of chips. They had limited seating inside and practically none outside which was a bummer if I do say so myself. The sandwiches themselves were overall, mid. It was disappointing to say the least, and due to the amount of money I know owe my sister because I "forgot my wallet" it's safe to say i'm unimpressed. But, it was a nice outing and a good place for me to successfully avoid going to classes!

    This is a great little spot. The kind of spot you hope is in your neighborhood. Great sandwiches and coffee for breakfast with fast service! Looking forward to trying them out for lunch!

    Friendly and quick service keeps me coming back. The salads are filling and delicious, and so are the drinks! I find it very convenient to use the online ordering system and just run in to pick up my order--typically it is ready in less than 10 minutes. Ask for the snickerdoodle latte made extra sweet!

    Their sandwiches are made very well with fresh ingredients. Pricing is in line. It's a quick in and out to get on your way.

I feel like they were short handed or servers over working too many tables. I got up to get my own Tobasco sauce since there was nobody around and my sandwich was half eaten while waiting for someone to come by. Overall, I left wanting more. Not fulfilled from the hype I had read in other reviews. Very mundane place. I would not go back. Cannot recommend this place.

When we finally came during the off season, we thought this would be the perfect opportunity since wait times were shorter. The wait on a Saturday afternoon was about 15-20 minutes. I will say - I had high hopes for Hot Suppa. Between my fiance and I, we ordered the waffle, side of corned beef hash, and the fried green tomatoes eggs benny. The corned beef hash here is excellent - that I do have to acknowledge. I was a bit underwhelmed by the fried green tomatoes though. The tomatoes were just okay, but the excessive hollandaise sauce really just made the whole dish waaay too heavy. It was also just messy. Service was slow & our waitress tended to disappear for long periods of time. Coffee & water refills both took a long time. Parking here is difficult but not impossible. Most spots are only for an hour or so.

I also tried a bite of the biscuits and gravy at the table and they were rich, comforting, and seriously tasty. The drinks were just as impressive.

She was so warm and friendly that I'd come back just to chat with her again. Great service, great food, great experience overall. Definitely worth a stop if you're in Portland.

They have a lot of breakfast sandwiches made on their homemade English Muffins. When I went to order I asked what's the favorite/best sellers and we told the Yinzer. I also figured I'd get another sandwich too so I went with the Pastrami on Rye. Unfortunately they did not have any Pastrami available so I will say I panicked a little and ordered the BLT. I took a bit to get our food but they were busy so I et that. Once home I got into the Yinzer first. Let me tell you this thing was saucy but I like it that way. I will say I was a big fan of the English Muffin, probably on of the best I have had. I also had plenty of Chipped Ham which was rather tasty. Now the BLT I wasn't the biggest fan of. I guess I'm just not a big fan of a breakfast sandwich with veggies on it. Just didn't work for me. Would for sure come back if I was in town again because they have a lot of tasty sounding sandwiches.
