Break Bread Market - Portland

I walked by this place earlier on my way to the post office and decided I 'd pick up lunch here after dropping off a package. There was something familiar about the name Break Bread, but I couldn 't put my finger on it. After looking them up later, it dawned on me; I had applied for a job here about five years ago when they were located in the Pearl District. I applied through Craigslist, and via email, I was asked by Pierce to come in for a work interview on 4/20/2019 from 1pm 2pm, time for which I was never paid. Not only is it unethical to take advantage of people in this way, but it is also illegal under Oregon law, something I wish I 'd known at the time (I was not hired, never heard anything back from them). By the way, the sandwich I ordered, the Strami, was nothing special and not worth the inflated price I paid. Given my experience, had I immediately recognized this place (I was thrown off by the new location), I never would have stepped foot in here.

These sandwiches are so good!!! I come every time I visit Portland and look forward to them every time I come back

These are the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! The flavor was incredible, and the bread was exceptional! I absolutely loved it! I ordered the #1 sandwich, while my husband tried the CAR, and both were equally delicious.

Amazing sandwiches every time!! Crispy bread, delicious combos, and super quick. It’s a lot more cost effective to select one of their curated sandwiches than building your own. I’ve tried their gluten free bread before and it was so good that I had to double check with them that it was indeed gluten free

This is a minimalist spot that truly excels at making sandwiches! The bacon jam was a bit sweeter than I prefer. The bread was exceptional. I also appreciated learning that they offer insurance and benefits to their team, which seems like a close-knit group. It's always worthwhile to support small local businesses that are making a positive impact.
