A Community-Based Food Cart Pod Located in the Heart of Downtown Portland

770 W. Burnside

 

Located along Portland’s proposed Green Loop, The Cart Blocks provide a place where food carts can thrive and are celebrated. The Cart Blocks are centrally located within a five minute walk of most hotels and Portland landmarks, like Powells. Walk, ride your bike or come by public transportation - we have plenty of bike parking, Biketown racks and are near both MAX and Streetcar stops.

 

The Cart Blocks is a unique food cart pod that was created to preserve, promote and advance Portland’s food cart culture through a partnership between The City of Portland and Friends of Green Loop, a local non-profit.

Our carts are primarily family and immigrant owned and are eager to share their culture with you through their food. Stop into Rachel & Rose, a London Double Decker Bus that has been converted into a pub, for coffee, beer or wine. Enjoy any of our offerings in the park that is located in the center of our pod with magnificent views of The North Park Blocks.

Our Food Carts include: #1 Bento, Kafta House, Hua Li House, El Ñaño Parrilladas South American Grill, Tito’s Burritos, Choi Choi, Beijing House, Villa Angel Taqueria and Rachel & Rose Coffee, Beer & Wine !

We are open seven days a week serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, generally from the hours of 8am to 8pm.
