The Cart Blocks is in a great location, next to so many stores and coffee shops to explore in downtown/NW. But, the food cart scene in Portland has leveled up compared to a decade ago and I feel The Carts Blocks has a few improvements they need to implement to make this food cart pod a great place to go.First big problem is the lack of covered seating, when we arrived it was a rainy, grey day (like it is most of the time in Portland) but there was no sufficient covering over any of the seating. The only sort of covering offered was not even water proof, with water dripping through it onto the seating making everywhere you could sit wet and uncomfortable.Secondly, there is zero heating in this food cart pod unlike other food cart pods such as Midtown Beer Garden and Hawthorne Food Asylum. As such, this makes it even additionally uncomfortable as no one wants to eat outside in 30-40 degree weather without a heating source.Lastly, the seating at this location could use an uplifting, it just doesn't look great and is very barebones because of the reasons I listed previously.I hope The Cart Blocks can improve on all three of these sections because they have a great group of food carts I like to go to but I almost never can eat my food there since the seating experience is so poor. If these improvements can be made, I think this food cart pod would be on level with the best in the city. It is definitely worth a visit and I will continue to support the amazing food carts here!

A convenient pod of trucks close to Powells Bookstore and Sizzle Pie. The food was decent but not the greatest for the prices. I’m glad I checked it out, but I likely wouldn’t go back as the location doesn’t feel the safest at night.

Lots of food options and you can eat it all on the double decker bus.
The good: there are a good number of trucks, at least 9-10, almost all open. All mouthwatering. Everyone was friendly. The food we had was really fantastic. Would eat here again.The semi cons: while it will be great when done, the construction means less seating and more dirt. It wasn’t a problem and will give the carts access to public water. So it should pay off. Also, it seemed a little dead, even though it was around lunchtime.
Super happy the city is bringing this back!!! Check out Rachel and Rose!

Rachel and Rose with the Harry Potter themed bus says you can bring outside food in. Coffee wine and beer are served at this location.

I enjoy all of the food carts here. Most notably, I have especially enjoyed the El Ñaño cart this month. Their Pan de Chicharron is so dang good and honestly everything I've tried has been delicious and filling. Big fan!

Love the double decker London bus! Great beer and chill vibes. You can bring food up from any of the other food carts ?

As of early September 2021 many good carts. But area a bit rough. Fine to pickup food to go but lacks beer garden or similar that would make it a destination
