Features / Highlights

What truly sets

Dos Hermanos Cafe

apart in Portland's competitive food scene is the combination of expert baking and innovative sandwich construction.

The Chopped Sandwich Phenomenon: The enormous, hand-chopped sandwiches are a must-try feature. Unlike traditional subs, all the fresh ingredients, meats, cheeses, and house dressings are finely chopped together before being scooped into a fresh, house-baked baguette. This ensures a perfect, cohesive flavor in every single bite. Standouts include the spicy
Bada Bing
(Italian cured meats with cherry peppers) and the savory
Beast Master
(roast beef and horseradish).
Specialty Yucatecan Pastries: Showcasing the owners' Mexican roots, the pastry case features unique, must-try items like colorful
Conchas
(sweet bread with a crunchy sugar topping) and the sweet-and-savory
Hojaldra
(flaky pastry squares, often with fillings like ham, cheddar, and jalapeño).
Artisan Bread Focus: Their commitment to baking is evident in the quality and variety of their loaves, including highly-praised
Sourdough Miche
and classic Batards, which are in demand by top local restaurants, confirming their quality.
Inclusive and Welcoming Atmosphere: As a certified
Transgender safespace
and
LGBTQ+ friendly
establishment, the cafe provides a warm, respectful, and
Trending
spot for all members of the Oregon community to gather and enjoy great food.
Generous Portions: The
Chopped Sandwiches
are known for their size, with customer reviews often suggesting that the "half sandwich is more than enough," offering fantastic value for money.

Incredible!! The CHOPPED SANDWICHES!!! so rare in portland and they are amazing. Obviously the bread and pastries were great. I loved the space too. Service was fantastic. I’m such a big fan you will see me here often!

I guess I adore chopped sandwiches now! Or you know what? I adore Dos Hermanos bread, because that’s really what was doing the heavy lifting on each of the three sandwiches we got and sampled. Unless you’re feeding a family of four the half sandwich is more than enough. We love the spice on the Italian sub (BadaBing). Spice lovers, I suggest you get some jalapeño chips if you don’t get a sandwich that has something spicy or zesty.We had no problem eating our sandwiches in the air conditioned bar next-door, it was a hot day and the café was really really warm. The guy in the bar next-door was super kind and accommodating and said we didn’t have to buy anything to eat there, (tho we did). Can’t wait to come back here!

On my quest of finding all the top sandwich joints in Portland, I made this new discovery of another amazing sandwich shop and bakery. The chopped sandwiches are unique and tasty. The bread is amazing. Not sure how long this place has been around but I am glad to have found this place and will be back. Oh, and the chocolate chip cookies are awesome!

I really like their bread but I haven't dialed in my favorite chopped sandwich here. I also wish the bread was toasted. The whole sandwiches are gigantic!!!--- sandwiches ---These are at around a 4 star for me right nowCochinita pibil ⭐⭐⭐✨- typically like Cochinita pibil, but this was just ok for me, maybe I just dont love it in a sandwich or it needed more vegetables- I like the habanero salsa with this thoBLTA⭐⭐⭐⭐- This is good but won't blow your mind- it tastes better toasted as a leftover because the cheese melts and it's amazing, the bacon also gets crispier--- bread ---Sour dough ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- not too sour but really delicious and good texture
