  • Restaurant Name: Quiznos Sub

    Just a smallish fast food place, where you can eat inside, or, as we did, outside. It was very warm!

    Subs come in three sizes - Small, Regular, or Large. The vary in price from about $3.99 for the small classic Italian, to $8 for the large Black Angus Steak.

    I only went the once, but enjoyed my meal, and would go back again. There are Quiznos in other areas too.

    Fun and/ or fast Food: Phil's Favourite
  • Tip Rating:

  • Restaurant Name: Dairy Queen

    Naturally I've heard of McDonalds and Burger King, but Dairy Queen was a new one for me. Not that I ever eat in McDonald's - I never go there. The only Burger King I've ever been in was in Spain, just for quickness. However... It was exceptionally hot during my visit to Portland, and it's been many years since I've enjoyed a milk shake. I was introduced to DQ by Phil, as it is his favourite (there's that F word again!) fast food restaurant.

    Occasionally some of the staff left one wondering how the place made a profit, but between the three of them, they did manage to produce nice shakes!

    Favorite Dish: I have to admit that the milk shakes were first class! Real fruit, that you couldn't suck up through the straw, haha. Not like the wishy-washy stuff you get in England! And very reasonably priced too.

     Hi Geoff, As it turns out, Carol and I will make the same trip next month...from LA to Portland (we will continue to Seattle). Your tips are great. I love the British perspective...I've never appreciated Dairy Queen and Home Depot so well. Thx...Tom
