    Tuna melt
    Jenna W.

    There's nothing quite like a good sandwich, and Snappy's didn't disappoint. I'm a sucker for a tuna melt, and theirs is on point, including potato chips for extra texture/crunch. The salted chocolate chip cookie was gooey and delicious too! The service was reasonably quick, and the person we ordered from was happy to chat about recommendations and modifications. The interior vibe is cute and quirky but clean, with the mostly white walls and plenty of light making the relatively small space still feel pretty open.

    So I am thinking 4 stars only bc the guy working the front could not greet or smile. But waiting for our sandwiches and gonna sit out on the secret patio:) Ok- the food is delicious and the chips rock too!

    A mixed bag review for the clean, crisp, colorful sandwich shop. Here is our groups sandwich rankings: 5 for the fries 5 stars for the grilled cheese 5 for the trilogy 4.25 for the Four Pointer (A) 3.5 for the BLAT 2.5 for the Four Pointer (B) -- Continued review: we loved the bread (grilled and hoagie), the heirloom tomato on the BLAT was awesome gorgeous. Those who loved their sandos emphatically said 5. The fries were gone in minutes. The misses were on the avocado mash, a bit oxidized perhaps? As you can see, the four pointer had two scores that differed, to each their own. If you go to Snappy's know there is an awesome beverage case (Barq's Root Beer- yum!), chips choices and a nice outdoor dining area on 23rd.

    Let's take a step back into the 90's for lunch! In Portland, Oregon sits this cute sandwich shop that is everything 90's from the decor to the music. Inside brings me back to my high school years when we would leave campus to the sub shop on the corner. Snappy's plays all 90's music so there's no confusing what era you're in. The dining area has souvenirs and the decor is all things from the 90s with VHS tapes, 90s snacks and your favorite 90s movies framed on the walls. They have a small TV with a VHS built into the TV to play 90s movies and show shows. Snappy's is a counter service so you go to the counter order your food and they call your name. You can grab some drinks from the cooler with a small selection of alcohol primarily beer, and they have a soda fountain in the back. The lady who assisted me with my order, explained everything to me and what they have to offer. Everyone was kind and helpful. There's plenty of seating inside, outside at the front entrance and the secret patio in the back. Snappy's is primarily sandwiches, cold, and hot. They have some sides in a variety of snacks. I got a veggie sub that was delicious and a side of fries. They have cookies Pringles Doritos. They have some 90s candy and a variety of sodas and water. They also have pickles. This was a great sandwich shop that takes you back in time and puts you in all the good feelings. Whether you live in Portland or you're visiting Portland, Oregon, you should check out snappy's to take you back in time. Cheers

    Tuna Melt
    Sarah C.

    Stopped into Snappy's while in the area. I was greeted upon entry and given a minute to view the menu. I ordered a tuna melt and 'veg supreme' off their hot sandwiches menu. They also have a cold sandwiches menu, as well as sides and drinks. The tuna melt sandwich was good and tasty, though not my favorite one in the city. The veg supreme was indeed loaded with veg, but it had whole garlic cloves and large pieces of artichoke which were hard to chew. I wouldn't say the preparation of the sandwiches was "snappy" - it took a little longer than I thought, but it looks like maybe they were training someone. It gave me time to admire the decor - I can appreciate the choices made here, from TVs made to look like old-style menu boards, to the crates on the ceiling, to the booths for seating. They're going for a 90s convenient store vibe and nailed it.

    Cool spot. Cool vibe inside. In a walkable part of town. Seems like the type of chain that I wish was in more places. If I ever craved a sandwich, I'd be down to have this in the rotation if I was near one. So cal expansion maybe?? Tbh, I can't remember exactly what I got. But I tried the curly fries and I remember those hitting the spot. I wanna say I got something with chicken and it was a solid sandwich. I think it was warm? Good flavor, that I know for sure. I think my friends got a chicken salad sandwich and it looked delicious. Down to order that if I come back, plus some fries

    The staff were very nice, the inside was decorated very cute and old school. You can get a couple of canned drinks or beer. They have some merchandise as well as some cheeses that you can purchase. I got a turkey club sandwich. I modified it a bit. But I do have to say it may be one of the only times I have not finished the sandwich in my life. The bread had a weird texture for me. And I'm not sure if the oil and vinegar was just too tart or what but it was offputting. Could have been the seasoned mayo aïoli. I'm just not sure. I was really disappointed. I did order the curly fries and ate those for lunch. They were very good. Unsure, I will return to this location in the future.

    Pretty solid sandwich! I ordered the turkey club, which was very tasty and filling! I like that they toss the lettuce with some kind of oil and seasoning mixture, it added another dimension of flavor to the sandwich! The employees were very kind and helpful. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out.

    Snappy's offers pretty good hoagies albeit at a little bit higher price point. Have tried the Trilogy (my favorite) and the Turkey Club. Both were pretty good. However, not as good as Jersey Mike's especially for the value, but if you want a locally owned option you could do worse.

    This was my first visit to their new location on NW 23rd. The place is nice and cozy and has similar decor as their original location. I ordered The 4 Pointer and a side of curly fries at the counter and then took a seat. The service was pretty quick and friendly. I did enjoy the sandwich as every bite was good and full of flavor. I don't think you can go wrong with the sandwiches here.

    Lots of outdoor seating

    Finally, a sandwich shop on NW 23rd! Located right next to See Eyewear, with plenty of tables out front, this was the perfect spot to grab a bite after ordering prescription sunglasses next door. Inside is designed like an old fashioned sandwich shop - colorful, fun, a counter up front to order, menu up above, just a few tables as this isn't a hangout place. It's a pick-up a sandwich to eat there quickly or to go. Since I love mortadella and I'm from NJ were subs are the norm, I went with the #4. Stuffed with Italian meats - mortadella, sopresseta, salami, cappecola - with pickled peppers, extra lettuce, tomatoes, onion and pepperocini. Glad I saw that they put mustard on this sandwich, which to me doesn't go, so I asked them to leave it off. The sandwich was very filling, big enough for two meals for me, which at $14 plus a tip, it better be! When I'm home in NJ, a deli sub or sandwich is in the $6.99 range and I can never get used to Portland's sandwich prices. Don't get me started on the price of pizza (large pepperoni back home is just $15.)

It's okay I would be tired too. We were sat at the bar stools, which were uncomfy, but fit the vintage vibe so can't really complain. *Bonus points because they have cholula (best hot sauce btw) Spinach omelette: 7/10 it was a hunk of soggy spinach inside egg, not much to say except it was quite mushy. I would try a different omelette next time. I wish the spinach & cheese was mixed in with the egg a little instead of a pile in the center. I found the hashbrown to be quite unseasoned but the texture was nice. toasted sourdough was good, came pre-buttered Mancakes (3 stack): 9/10 These are definitely worth trying, I recommend getting 100% maple syrup or a topping/add in as the fake syrup they give you is flavorless. This stack was shared, but I did get flavor fatigue after a while (one man cake is enough haha). these are so worth the price.. $13 for three big plate pancakes! Overall: would go back for the mancakes (and add a topping!) everything was affordable, huge portions, short wait, fun interior, little cramped inside but what can you expect from a popular small diner

We were seated (the three of us) at the bar and were pretty immediately given drinks and menus. After perusing the menu and waiting for quite awhile; again, they were busy and the delay was understandable, no problem, a very polite gent took our orders. The other two people with me ordered French Toast and some sort of smothered omelette. I ordered hash browns, veggie sausage and toast. Though this YELP listing touts "vegan options," the only ones I saw were veggie sausage patties and a black bean patty to swap out for burgers, and that's it. It was pretty disappointing to be in PDX, which some consider to be a vegan Mecca, in 2025 with practically NO vegan options and the one burger option available is the same black bean patty most of us don't even like anyway. A pack of IMPOSSIBLE patties in the freezer, some soyrizo...these would go a long way, I'm sure. The hash browns, when received, were not seasoned. They were just fried potatoes. So, that's fine, usually, but it would have been nice to have something on them. Salt and pepper applied liberally made them okay. Prices were fair and the general vibe of the cafe was jovial and cool. My companions really enjoyed their food, and I would return, but I hope hope hope they expand their vegan options.

We decided to visit to host our friend's baby shower brunch, and it was the best decision we could have made. The table was set up with flowers, but they allowed us to add our own vases too. We arrived a bit early to set up, but even with 14 guests they were able to set up our table at the perfect time. Hayden took our drinks order, helped us move gifts and bags we brought, helped organize the tables for ease of photos and movement, and was overall just a wonderful service host for our section.

The standout feature for me was the QR code ordering system: scan, order, and close out your tab whenever you're ready, all from your phone. In a busy restaurant, this feels less like a gimmick and more like a small act of genius. No awkward eye contact trying to flag someone down, no waiting to pay while mentally calculating how close you are to just leaving cash and hoping for the best. That said, if you're not in the mood to embrace your phone as your server, the traditional route is still there. You can walk up to the bar or catch one of the servers floating around. It's a smart setup that solves the "we're busy and maybe a little understaffed" problem without making it your problem. Food-wise, I went with the meatball sub (on special).
