Ross Island Grocery & Cafe

3502 SW Corbett Ave., 503-227-4531, rossislandgrocery.com.

Though a convenient destination for basics like beer, wine, bread and milk, the comforting, dinerlike menu makes this more of a cafe than a grocery. Classic sandwiches come in half or full portions.Additional fare includes morning breakfast and afternoon burgers, wraps and salads. There's live music on first Fridays and comedy on third Thursdays.
