Elephant's Deli offers a sit-down and to-go location with grilled sandwiches , soups , salads , and rotating entrees. Also featuring several gluten-free dairy-free, and vegan options .
One of the few airport eating establishments I actually look forward to visiting. Great variety and quality, you really can't go wrong with it.
Best coffee in PDX by far. Strong, full-bodied with moderate acidity and a generous crema made on a La Marzocco machine. The food is good and reasonably priced for an airport . Try the croque monsieur .
Everything is so good. The veggie frittata is very tasty
I especially like the winter squash and pear soup ! The coffee is always excellent.
They have a case featuring meal items packaged in such a way that they will pass through security, even tasty salads with dressing .
Just finished some Indian spice lentil soup (not sure of the correct name of this Dahl ), but omgoodness, it was wonderful!
