Description

The sandwiches are named after Portland bridges and streets.

History
[edit]PDX Sliders was owned by Ryan Rollins, who opened the business as a food cart in 2014. PDX Sliders began operating as a brick and mortar restaurant on Bybee Boulevard in southeast Portland's Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood on January 21, 2017.[3] In October, Rollins announced plans to expand to the former Sunshine Tavern space on Division Street in the Richmond neighborhood. He hoped to open by December 1.[5] The restaurant opened on December 8 with a seating capacity of approximately 45.[1] In September 2019, Drew Carney of KGW said PDX Sliders had "plans to unveil a third [location] by the end of the year".[6] Rollins died in 2023.[7]
