About this project
Brass Tack Sandwiches is headed by Amanda (Ami) Taylor, and her hardworking partner Sara Pavao. We wanted to start a sandwich shop in north or northeast Portland to add a little variety to the neighborhood. It is important to us that everyone can feel comfortable eating together, so we made sure that both the Meat and Vegan menu are mind-blowingly good. Misty Seminara has developed a Vegan menu from scratch, with 4 vegan meats and all the condiments, soups, and cold salads crafted with love, and seasoned with magic. We've made sure to get the most local, responsible (cruelty free), and organic meats, cheeses, and breads in town. We even made sure to get some gluten free, made from scratch, deliciousness for those with that wheat allergy. We've done a lot of digging around, and we are so close to opening our doors it hurts a little. We just need a few more dollars to get the last few things we need, like a refrigerator, and separate meat slicers, and food warmers...and one or two other little things. This is a space where we can have shows, and we have space on our walls for art. We hope that the whole community will be able to benefit from this dream/adventure. Thanks so much for your help!
