I really like this food pod. Good atmosphere, good beers at a fair price in the main building, and a good selection of food trucks. The only downside is that the beertenders almost never wipe down the tables, which are always sticky and kind of gross. Get that taken care of and this is the best little beer garden in Bend.

Pretty good selection of carts, but PLEASE MAKE YOUR BEER COLDER. After a long bike ride, we'd love a cold beer and yours was cool to begin with and warm before we finished. Sorry, but we don't want to chug. ;)

So The Podski has a major upgrade in the form of a larger beer dispensing building. That's good, except in this case maybe not so much. The building is poorly designed and suffers in comparison to other pods such as The Lot, On Tap and River's Place. The bar itself a design mystery as half of it isn't even accessible to the attendant. Moreover, they still have a very limited tap setup, so much so that I didn't see a beer I wanted to drink. OK, I did but that beer was out and replaced by another - why the attendant doesn't update the board is baffling. He didn't even tell me that the two beer taps that were out had been replaced by others, I had to ask. I quaffed the one beer I chose and then headed over to Immersion. The food truck scene is pretty good here, though.

Great place good bear awesome Miral. Good convo about Disney movies. I highly recommend over the pug across the street where the bartender is the least interested person in the world. Barf.

Incredible pulled chicken and carne asada and well-priced! The owner is very sweet and she makes a MEAN taco with all the fixings.

I really, really, really wanted to love these tacos, but sadly that didn't happen. The meat was super bland and the portions were really small for what you pay. The condiment area was really hinky and disorganized.

We have never had a bad experience. Love all of the food options. Everyone is super friendly and my dog loves it there too. They keep the fire stoked, so even when it was snowy out we could enjoy dining al fresco!

Love this lil food truck lot! It's cozy and friendly. Parking around is easy and it's very walkable if you live around. They have a beer cart that carries beers on tap as well as in cans which we appreciate. We've moved from Portland and this place reminds us of home. The food options are great when they are all open. Your best bet is Thursday ~ Saturday. They are planning on having a temperature controlled structure for a tap room and more food carts early next year. This will be your go to place if you like eating from food trucks!!

Great Place to grab a drink. This place has a great selection of beer. I think they had six microbrews on tap, but they also have a selection of other domestic beer by the can. This is a nice alternative to all of the taprooms in Bend, OR. It was easy to find parking when I went around 3pm, but I could easily see parking being a little more difficult later in the evening. This is the first "beer cart" I have been to. The bartender was friendly and prompt. He was happy to give me samples of several until I had made up my mind.
Nice lady and the tacos were amazing!! Great flavor and the rice and beans were yummy too!

Best local food cart and beer pod in town... friendly faces and good vibes. I love the tin pig food cart, it has the best fried chicken sandwich in town...possibly all of oregon. The beer selection changes VERY frequently which is nice. It's a nice afternoon stop. I like to sit at the tables out front and watch the crazy tourists across the street at river pig.

(This review is for the Ma'ama Jamas truck) I've now gone to this truck 3x and am really impressed wit da food. here's what's up, I am for sure not a vegan...at all, and I know vegan food is typically super lame, but if you aren't a vegan don't write this spot off! My recommendation - get the taco bowl salad thing, It's like a burrito bowl but with quinoa that's cooked in some taco seasoning and boy is it satisfying. If it's cold they have this coconut milk hot chocolate thing which is also dank. Other Notes - It's Bend and the vegan vibes are strong here, down to the way the employees talk lol, so if that's your crowd you'll love it, but if not just take it all in and experience the food. Negatives - Bit expensive but I'm assuming high quality ingredients so you get what you pay for.
