PDXWT Breakfast Sandwich at Portland Penny Diner

Portland Penny Diner, located next to Imperial, makes me sad with its hours of 7 AM – 3 PM on weekdays of Monday – Friday only. Unless I am very very motivated, there is no way I can go quickly grab something. Stupid working in Beaverton for my job getting in the way of leisurely breakfast deliciousness…

But I so want to visit more often, and even regularly, enjoy a breakfast sandwich on the buttery soft doughy fresh Parker House rolls that I already do not hesitate to pay $1 for when I come for happy hour or dinner at Imperial.

But did you know you can have those deliciously buttery rolls with breakfast between it?

For instance, the  most unusual sounding sandwich of the 3 breakfast sandwiches they offer on Parker House rolls is the PDXWT.

I inhaled that thing even before getting on the Max train at Pioneer Square to go to work. I need access to more sandwiches with these Parker house rolls.

It’s the best breakfast item I’ve ever had from Paley… and that means a lot, since it knocked off the other contenders available at Portland Penny Diner, the Bagel Bun, or Balls (also known as Bagel Bombs) which is a bagel stuffed with cream cheese inside. I’ve also another time had a Reuben and Cheese Croissant. Did you hear what I just described? This is serious breakfast pastry.

If you are staying downtown as an out of town guest for work in Portland downtown, or work downtown, and want a quick bite to go (the diner itself is small so I admit I’ve only really grabbed and gone), make sure you stop here for a breakfast or lunch!

Dammit Portland Penny Diner, why can’t you be open on the weekends? I don’t even need to have you clean the place and let us sit down, I’d be happy if it was all carry out only, please?

Have you ever heard of these bagel bun, bagel balls, bagel bombs? What do you think of the description of the PDXWT breakfast sandwich?

  5. I have seen the diner before and had no idea…The breakfast sandwiches look great even so I am not one for breakfast sandwiches. I would definitively give it a try!

    Happy day!

  6. My wife and I are there on vacation. I asked what PDXWT means. She told me PDX is the airport. Ok, what is WT? White trash. I felt targeted, but it was so good
