Bridge City Cafe Essex House - Portland

They have some great food and hands down one of the best sandwiches in the area! Would highly suggest if you’re looking for some great service and food! Always snag a cookie, because they’re the best around. Love this place and everyone that works here.

Fresh bread and sandwiches are fantastic here. I really appreciate the wide selection of soups they offer. The salads are consistently good, and the baked goods are delicious every time.

I really enjoy this spot for a quick sandwich. During lunchtime, they offer a complimentary chocolate chip cookie with any lunch purchase. Their sandwiches are priced at $8.45, which makes the combination of a full sandwich and a cookie a great deal. The wait is never too long, even when there are lines out the door, because they prepare those sandwiches quickly. My favorite is the Burnside Turkey Bacon.

This charming local spot offers convenient delivery for a quick lunch. I picked up a dozen cookies to bring home for my kids, and the staff went out of their way to ensure they were packed securely for the trip.

Fresh, fast, great service. Food was great. Busy lunch rush but worth the wait. And I got a cookie!
