Portland’s selection of food carts — the city has hundreds — has drawn global acclaim (CNN declared Portland home to the world’s best street food). Most carts are grouped in “pods” all around town, making it easy to sample several carts at a time. Explore international flavors and unique new food concepts — without the wait of a sit-down restaurant — at Portland’s many food carts.
Inspired by his own background, chef Anthony Brown mixes Cajun and Mexican influences in his dishes. Nacheux offers staples like tacos and mac n' cheese, but you can also find unique Southern-Mexican creations by Anthony.
John Hunt, former co-owner of Stoopid Burger, brings you Union Burger—all the simple things you know and love about burgers, but made with quality ingredients. Opt-in for one of the classics, like a cheeseburger, or try a specialty burger.
Birrieria PDX is a family owned and operated cart serving freshly made birria de res in quesadillas, tacos and instant noodle bowls. Specialty drink menu includes in-house horchata, as well as cucumber-lime-chia and pineapple agua frescas.
With a menu offering burgers, vegetable bowls and sandwiches, Farmer and the Beat serves classic Americana dishes made with care and the freshest local products. Menu features vegan and vegetarian options and unique daily specials.
This food cart’s theme is “Southwest Inspired. Portland Made.” They use fresh, local products to create exciting dishes like fennel- and pepper-crusted pork loin or cola-braised beef cheeks.
