When the food carts at 10th & Washington closed, I was very sad to say goodbye to my beloved Bing Mi cart. I tried catching them at Saturday Market, but the 45 minute wait put me off.Imagine my joy at finding Eggy Pocket!Just as close to my home as the 10th & Washington pod was.More substantial wrap.So many protein options! The sausage will always be my favorite, but I’ve surprised myself several times by trying other options when the sausage is sold out.Great staff, never steered me wrong!And no 45 minute line!Great. Now I’m craving one...
Where I come from, the food trucks are always on the move and I have to really be on top of their schedule if I love them. Apparently in Portland, the food trucks stay in one place in an area with other food trucks. They call these "pods." That's a great way to get a variety of options all in one place. My friend took me to one of these areas and that is how we came across Eggy Pocket. Covid Safety - Staff is wearing face mask and gloves. An Eggy Pocket is a savory marriage between a crepe and a pastry filled with egg batter and then filled with your choice of stuffings. In this case, they have a small menu with your options of proteins or a create your own option. Great concept! My friend had a Pork Eggy Pocket ($10) and I had a Chinese Sausage Eggy Pocket ($10). In addition to the protein, it was also filled with shredded carrots and potatoes. The eggy pockets are pretty big. I found the execution of this glorious concept a bit lacking. At first I thought there was not enough egg until a few bites later, just to discover the distribution of the egg was not even. Also the exterior was not too flakey like a pastry. It tasted a bit dense. It was packed full like a fat burrito, but I would say more with the potatoes and carrots assortment. I love Chinese sausage, but the sauce they put in the inside really took away from the taste of Chinese sausage I like. My friend had a better experience with her eggy pocket where her egg distribution was on point and I guess pork is a safer choice. Both of us were only able to eat 1/3 of the eggy pocket. For me, it was not because I was full, but I was getting tired of the taste and was missing out on some freshness with the meal. I hope to come across this concept again in the future, with a better execution.

AMAZING EASY five stars. Ordered the pork eggy pocket ($10). CHOC full of pork and potatoes. The wrap tasted fresh and hand made. HUGE portions and no skimping on the fillings either. Perfectly seasoned and stick to your bones. It was sort of greasy but hey it's comfort food it's supposed to be!Food came out quickly, owner is super friendly :) Located on a block with a bunch of food carts.

Absolutely the best! I'm still thinking about it. It's a really large portion so you could share if you can stop yourself from devouring it.

This place is amazing. Tried both pork and chicken and I can say they are both delicious. Small tip you can ask for extra sauce drizzle.

When I first heard of this from a friend, my mouth was watering. After trying it for the first time, my mind was blown! This cart makes me appreciate everything that should be right about street cart food. The flavor was amazing! (Sprouts, cilantro, carrots, chicken, and a spicy plumlike sauce in a savory, egg filled elephant ear). The portion was huge! Could probably share one for two normal people or go for glory by yourself. I paid $10 for mine and thought the price was well worth it. I'll definitely go back in the near future to try other fillings (Beef, chicken, pork, Chinese sausage, and veggie). Keep up the good work Eggy Pocket!

Portland has over 500 food carts. Most carts are organized into "pods." On 3rd Ave, between Harvey Milk St. and Washington St. is a pod with around 20 carts. And in this pod is one of my surprise finds. Eggy Pocket. An eggy pocket is a "savory, pastry-meets-crepe pouch, filled with egg batter and cooked on a hot griddle, creating a crispy eggy pocket, which is then packed with an assortment of delicious fillings." There are five flavors to choose from: beef, chicken, Chinese sausage, pork, and veggie. Each eggy pocket is only $9! You can also make your own eggy pocket for $10. I ordered pork and I was hooked. Tasty. Savory. Fresh. There was so much going on (in a good way) with the fillings but it all combined for a gastronomic experience that satisfied my taste buds and my little tummy. Maybe I was just too hungry, but that eggy pocket was gone in 10 minutes! I am a huge fan. Solid five stars!

I used to go to the old location on Alder. Discovered that moved here. Eggy pocket is savory, fluffy and crispy take on a crepe. I ordered the beef eggy pocket with additional Chinese sausage. I wish that the had the duck option like their old location. But still really good and very filling. For $9, definitely worth it!
Along a strip of pad thai, falafel, and gyros, Eggy Pocket is a nice change of pace and knows what it's doing. They take the concept of Chinese jian bing (like a crepe) and adapt it to make a crepe that rises and they fill with a fried egg. Then, you can choose among a selection of meats that they stuff the bread in - I'd recommend the pork if you like a slightly more savory filling. For $9, you'll get a fresh giant egg pocket filled with meat, veggies (carrots and potatoes mostly), and Chinese flavoring. Can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Portland!
