| - I really love the concept of Porter, but it seemed like they had a few kinks to work out when I stopped in for lunch on Monday. The food was great, the service was great, they were just out of a lot of items.
Normally, I can't help but order a coffee drink, even if it's late in the day, but I was distracted by the fact that Porter stocks Topo Chico, a sparkling water from Mexico, so I grabbed one of those and went up to order some food.
I settled on the soup and sandwich combo, but when I asked for the veggie sandwich, the cashier told me they were out. Bummer! I got the mozzarella panini instead, which was excellent. The soup was minestrone and also had great flavor. What bread was on that panini? It was out of this world.
Adding the sandwich outage, the cashier told the guy behind me that they were out of baguette for one of the other items. The girl behind him ended up having to pay in cash because their credit card machine was down.
In addition to coffee and hot food, they have a little market with some very random merchandise. Everything from local honey, pizza flour, pickles, mustard, and sugar.
They also have beer and wine to enjoy there AND to go!!! It didn't mention that anywhere on their website, so I wanted to point that out.
Overall, I REALLY like the new place, especially considering how good the food was. Hopefully my next visit will be 5 stars!
