Food Carts of Portland Bike Tour: local flavors and stories

Overview

Portland’s famous food carts are scattered all over the city's five (now six) quadrants, over 600 in total, in over 60 pods — collections of food carts! Starting at our shop, 833 SE Main Street #121, we'll put you on one of our lightweight bicycles and guide you on a 8-12 mile (11-17 km) culinary experience through some of our best-loved chefs and makers, sampling everything from Oregon farm-to-table delights to snacks appropriate to late-night cravings.

Our focus is on locally-owned businesses with a great story; we’ll take you to a few of our favorites, many of which were important in creating the food cart scene as it exists today. Without these unique and passionate people, we may not have even half of what Portland offers to residents and guests alike. Expect flavors and fusions that tell not only a culinary, but also a cultural, tale. Bikes, helmets and plentiful food samples provided.

We keep groups small, so you'll have an intimate experience with your passionate guides!

What To Expect

Ladd's Addition

In the Ladd's Addition neighborhood is the heart of the original food cart scene and we'll set the scene by trying some of our favorite coffee and discussing our route for the day.

Hawthorne

Hawthorne Boulevard is part of our hometown story: the heart of all that's delicious, funky, and hippie, a thoroughfare with a street food soul! We'll ride into our personal and the city's foodie history (this goes back over a century!) and stop at a special coffee food cart made in a unique vehicle. Here we'll get some caffeinated beverage (if that's what you like) to begin our day!

My girlfriend and I booked this tour wanting to try a variety of Portland's food cart scene. The tour itself was very rewarding not just for the food but for the beautiful neighborhoods you get to bike through. Definitely something you couldn't appreciate as much if this were a driving food tour. The food for the most part was spot on, my least favorite was Matt's tacos as the brisket was really fatty. My favorite was chicken and guns, the smoked chicken was fall off the bone and delicious. If there was a downside to the tour it was unfortunately our guide. He was a young college kid (who's name I've forgotten) who didn't talk much, seemed to be just going through the motions, and just wanted to get home and study for finals. (The last part I understand) however I still give these guys a solid 4 stars cause the food the good and the scenery unexpectedly beautiful.

This was one of my favorite things we did on our vacation. The biking was a fun way to work off some calories and therefore make room for more delicious food! The tour took us through some really cute areas or Portland that I never would have known existed otherwise. Highly recommend!
