Milwaukie Station Food Cart Pod

Milwaukie Station Food Cart Pod is an absolute gem! The variety of food trucks offers something for everyone, from delicious wraps at The Good & Evil Wrap Co. to amazing Japanese dishes at Teppanyaki Hut. The outdoor seating area is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of picnic tables under a covered pavilion, perfect for enjoying a meal with friends or family. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy some fantastic food. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a great food cart experience in Milwaukie!

The beer garden is SUCH a vibe. Great beers on tap, covered seating, oftentimes live local music & plenty of noms from all the other carts.

I got the Rise n Grind wrap. It was goat cheese deliciousness! It was so fresh and delicious wrapped in a spinach wrap. So good and such a friendly welcoming! I will be back! Highly recommend!

Tiny but mighty! They have a covered seating area and a nice bar cart. A smaller but good selection of food to choose from. Parking is decent. Only gripe is the bathrooms are honey buckets 🤣

If there are 10 carts, why are there only 3 listed? Alert, there’s only 3 carts worth going to.

I just don't get the crazy love of food carts here. One would hope innovative or lower than market costs for burgeoning aspiring restaurant owner in the making. But as is the custom in overrated portie foodie culture, very disappointing. It was not "bad", but it was below what I'd usually get in a sit down restaurant, for the same price, without wasps and struggling to eat with paper and plastic disposables. It's like those mail to you meal kits: why? All the expense, but inferior product and you share the work load. No thank you.

Nice quiet little area, found a truck with homemade bread bowls! Had a bread bowl of Clam Chowder, and was very surprised at the quality. Hubby had a Ruben with onion rings from the same vendor. We both decided to get two Thai iced teas, I liked the Thai green iced tea better.

The BBQ place and the tenpanyaki hut are awesome. The potato place is a rip, though charged my friend lady in the truck was rude. Assumed he wanted loaded fries when he only wanted normal one. Would only tell him the price after he asked in Spanish. And still charged and served him loaded fries anyway . Avoid.

On the outskirts of downtown Milwaukie is this wonderful little food truck court. Milwaukie Station blast about ten foot truck with anything from Asian American cuisine, Mexican American cuisine, Mediterranean cuisine, southern bbq, sushi and a adult beverage cart. Nice little vibe with plenty of outdoor covered seating.

The loaded fries with chorizo are excellent!! The Potato Cart, yummy ( not sure of their name, but the cart is red.)

We were unimpressed with our visit. We went on a Monday night at 5 o'clock which seems like prime dinner time to me but at least half the carts were closed. They did have ample seating and some of it was covered, but no heating anywhere which is kind of crucial if you're trying to make it a year round option in Oregon. Bathroom was a gross porta-potty. We ordered from three different carts, the Mexican food and BBQ were both quick and the good was decent. The gyro place had us waiting for 15-20 minutes and then was the worst gyro I've ever had...the chicken tasted fishy and I didn't like it so I fed it to my dog who later had explosive diarrhea...coincidence? The concept is great and maybe they are still working on figuring it out, we might give it another try sometime but we aren't in a hurry to rush back

This is such a fantastic food cart pod!! And here's why: right next to the max stop, ample street parking, 10+ food carts and a beer/wine cart, bathrooms, hand washing station, TONS of seating, reasonable prices, most carts took card (also there's an ATM on site) and the BEST FOOD! My only complaint is the ground is covered in dirt and gravel. My toddler boys thought it was fun to throw dirt and rocks and got completely dirty before we ate. I was wearing sandals and had dust and rocks all in my shoes. Please pave the site! I'm glad thankful to have so many amazing food trucks near our house we'll be back here often!

Hey! Food carts steps from the MAX stop. Friday night was First Friday Milwaukie. There were 4 carts present during FFM, but only 2 were open. One was Caribbean (with a Cuban sandwich on offering) and the other was Teppanyaki Hut, with sushi burritos. We ordered a sushi burrito, then sauntered over to Cha Cha Cha, where it took about 20 minutes to get a quesadilla. By the time we got back to Teppanyaki, we waited about another additional 5 minutes for food. This was their soft opening in Milwaukie. Both employees at this booth were friendly and in good spirits, though they were overwhelmed. They took cards, but there is an ATM in a cool retro steampunky cage silo around. There were also TONS of tables stacked up. The space is pretty large, like there could be live music in the future. The other booths around were Anything Pastable (pasta, their menu has fried ravioli on it!?), Filipino (there was an employee, but the cart wasn't open for business) and Caribbean, making 4 total. Cute spot! Nice addition to the area. Rohst coffee is across the street, and Duffy's bar is a block away. I wonder if Duffy's will allow outside food on the outside tables with the new carts. The Bernard's garage is also turning into condos (gag me) in a few years, the deal just went through so Milwaukie is turning into the cookie cutter hamlets you see all over Portland. For better or worse. No restrooms at this point, just an atm, tables with a few umbrellas and 4 carts. There are no plans from Milwaukie city council so far to cover the carts from rain or extreme sun.

Not all of the carts are in yet, but the ones that are here are great. When we came on a Sunday in mid July, only Carabean Thing and Teppanyaki Hut were open, but I swear the others have been open when I've driven by during the week. You can tell the planners and builders put a lot of thought into making this space cool and inviting

My husband and I have always talked about trying these food carts. I log on lots of miles around this area, and they always seem to be busy and smell so good! Well tonight we got the chance. With this whole virus thing, we have been in lockdown mode as everyone else. Be last night was our anniversary and we decided to support small business and get takeout and go down to the river to eat. Kinda romantic.... right? Any way sadly only two carts were open. Okay l get it!!!! I had reviewed menus and carts on line. The one l picked was not open and also the beer cart was closed!!! Again I get it! But this chick can always fly by the seat of her britches lol! I packed a few cold brews to go in cooler, (desperate times desperate measures) we ordered our food from the gyro truck. Hubby loved his gyro, it was huge! A two handed monster that he couldn't put down once he started. I got the philly cheese steak Sammie which was also good. But l could only eat half. We split a order of fries which we also yummy. While our food was being prepared we had a chance to walk around and look at all the food carts and their menus we will definitely be going back! Sorry no pics.... was eating, drinking beer at the river! Lol

Small but Mighty! Milwaukie Station will take you by surprise. There's a lot of them packed into a small area, and they make the most of what they have. You have 15 carts easily here to choose from with plenty of seating in the middle. Parking can be tricky, and the rails for the Max have to be navigated carefully.........but it's all worth it. I'm a big fan of these stations......they're getting smarter about putting them together. You have much to choose from here. My favorites are the Vietnamese Noodle House and Greek Gods Gyros(they're Egyptian but hey!). Super nice people at all the carts, and if you're there at the right time.....some free samples at many of them. At night there's a beer and wine pod and the Orange Line Starts off for Portland with smells of fresh Caribbean, Asian, and Mediterranean food to go! Only place it loses a star for me is that being outside and being close to water......there's a swarm of yellow jackets around that hone in on your sandwich! They've got to get a little creative to deal with this on sunny days with better traps.....but then again....you can't control those little jerks with wings! Also, and more importantly, they need to figure out the rain situation. Not all the tables have umbrellas and all of them need umbrellas or there needs to be a tent set up around the tables. Overall, great experience here and I'll be back. It's also very student friendly for local kids in downtown Milwaukie, so show those student I.D's for some good deals!

Cool place to chill and grab a bite lots of choices. We had sushi and a few items from the greek truck.

Im gonna review Milwaukie Station as the trucks should really have their own pages. It's a good idea. As someone who lives in Milwaukie I'm glad to see more truck pods that I don't have to drive into PDX for. The thing is just getting started so we are still waiting to see. When we went on a Monday afternoon, only two trucks were opened. A few more had been dropped off but they were still waiting on inspections, paperwork etc. more trucks are coming too. I talked to a guy who seemed to run the lot and he was talking about a dessert truck and a beer one and the standard Mexican and Thai trucks as well. This is where the questions come. There's already not enough shaded seating and when more trucks come will there be enough seating at all as that small spot gets more and more crowded. It's also going to become a parking challenge, so expect to have to walk in the future. We are at both open trucks and both were solid, although obviously still figuring things out. So I think it's best to support it now and then wait and see on how good these trucks will be long term. I'm giving it four stars for now because there's only two trucks and only two tables with shade.

New Food Cart Alert. Ames Meat Research opened today and it's REALLY really good. We had the chicken mushroom and brie melt which was perfectly melty and delicious on crunchy golden brioche. Also the french dip was great and we tried the chef salad (with __moon__ cheese and a good homemade ranch!) and the butter lettuce salad (so nice with the fresh herbs!) Everything was fresh tasting and well prepared! Will be back ! http://amesmeatresearch.com We got a lovely beer served in an actual GLASS (no plastic :-)) at the beer cart while we were there too! Friendly dude behind the bar !

The place I normally go to and love "Teppanyaki Hut" was closed unfortunately, but that gave me an opportunity to try a new cart. I tried out "17th place" and was very impressed, and will definitely return. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries, and was very pleased with it. The burger was obviously made with love, the fries were nicely seasoned with salt and cracked black pepper, and the people there were very nice which is even more emphasis to return. Another cool thing is that they slipped a coupon in my togo bag, so I thought that was awesome. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Oh and I almost forgot, they play some great music at this cart.

Sunday after work I generally always go to Killer Burger in Sellwood. Not today. Today it's cloudy and sporadically raining and I wanted something different. We were stopped by the crossing for the max and right there was the Milwaukie Station Food Cart Pod. So we parked and ventured over. Possibly 'cause of the weather or that it was Sunday at 3pm I don't really know - there were only 4 carts open - Mexican, Gyros, the Noodle House and Teppanyaki Hut. I love Sushi. So we ordered from the chef and proprietor at Teppanyaki Hut. My wife had the Mt. Fuji roll which was an enormous sushi roll but the size of a burrito and I had the Shrimp Tempura Udon Noodle Soup. On a cold, cloudy day it was warm, delicious and healthy. The tempura was lightly fried and the shrimp was juicy, plump and flavorful. It was wonderful. My wife enjoyed half of her roll and took the remainder to go. We also had the chicken gyoza and that was flavorful and fresh as well. Overall we enjoyed our time at the Milwaukie Station. Parking was more abundant on Sunday since the school was closed and the covering over our tables kept us nice and dry during the shower outbursts. The only thing I would suggest is not to have the tables so close together only 'cause I have long legs and I banged my foot against an adjoining bench while attempting to sit. It's okay - I obviously survived! :-) I can't wait to return and try dishes from the other carts and have a smorgasbord of delicious delicacies right in our very own backyard of Milwaukie.

We stopped by two times, both Sunday afternoon. Both times only 3 carts open and one was the tap cart. We will not be back!

This food cart pod is really awesome. Has something for everybody, from pasta to sushi to Filipino food, to Mexican--and more. It's well organized, plenty of seating, and on hot days, has cool misters strategically placed. You can get beer or cider or an amazing ice-cream float--or both! :) It's a wonderful addition to what is becoming a vibrant little downtown. They did a great job with putting this together, which doesn't surprise me. Milwaukie tends to be very thoughtful in their planning. There's plenty of options for vegans, vegetarians, and kids. Very family friendly--and just plain friendly. I can't wait to go back!

We went to the Milwaukie station tonight an 8 at the Greek gods food truck and at the barbecue place. I left a review for Greek gods but I could not find the barbecue restaurant so I'm leaving it here. It is called Smokin Grill and the brisket is so tender you could cut it with a plastic fork! It's served with your choice of two sides and cornbread for about $10

All the food is great!!!!! Lamb is not my favorite but its really good here. I can eat at this place everyday and never get tired of it.

I give the Milwaukie Station 4 stars because I don't like the pasta cart. The guy in the cart was rude, not friendly, not helpful. Everyone else was very friendly and helpful, food was wonderful.

A good number of options (8+ food carts) with nice access to the MAX and outdoor seating. Would recommend to anyone looking for a new food cart pod.

OH MY, If you crave real food this place is the place to be. The price is affordable too. I've been coming here for the past three days trying new things. I had the lamb over salad (Bomb) then i had the chicken shawarma AMAZING. Today i had the kofta over rice. What a delight. The area is new and pleasant. I haven't even tried the other food carts. This place is that good.

A lot of food to choose from Thai cart, sushi and etc. I got from thai was really good
