tried this place today for lunch. punky's is a typical quick stop sandwich anddrinksstyle place. plenty of parking, and a nice little area inside with booths for eating. the menu has some interesting choices - mostly hot or cold sandwiches/subs. the also offer burgers and fried sides. plenty of chips, snacks, and drinks. a surprise to me: they offer daily homemade "comfort" food. such as chicken alfredo, turkey and stuffing, chicken pot pie, tuna casserole, etc. you can get a generous portion in a take home container. the comfort food, imo, really makes this place different and worth a look. (also spotted some pre-cut homemade desserts, though not much of it was left in the display cooler.....) i brought home a shaved steak sub, and a container of the homemade chicken and broccoli alfredo. both were delicious. prices - reasonable for portland, not too high but not cheap either. negatives to be aware of: the inside of the store looks rather rundown. nothing fancy. and many shelves (primarily the snacks area) were empty. and while they do have a enormous selection ofdrinksin the wall cooler, thedrinksi purchased were not very cold. one other thing: be aware the store hours are unusual on the weekends. they close at 4 on saturdays; closed entirely on sundays. these last few negatives bring down my overall rating for punky's... but still a place worth trying.
