Really great spot in downtown Troutdale! Decent food options and a nice indoor/outdoor seating area! Dogs are welcome outside, so we decided to bring our doggos with us! I have been here a couple different times now and I've tried Lulu's Hawaiian food and the Mediterranean food cart. Both were very delicious!! This will definitely be a new regular spot for my family and me. I highly suggest trying it out if you're in the area

Good spot with decent food truck options. The trucks we tried were friendly and quick. Food was decent. Outdoor spot on a warm late summer evening. Lots of families - and dogs - just enjoying the late sun.

Great beer, location and food options. The variety of food trucks gives everyone something to get and be happy. It's especially nice on a warm day when they open up the giant garage doors and let the air flow in.

A new outpost of a great Portland brewery. All of the beers were excellent, flavorful and well balanced. The tap list was heavy on lighter beers, pilsners , helles etc.. and included a cider, all were delicious .Plenty of seating upstairs has a view and outdoor seating as well. Off street parking. Small food menu, however the place has a number of food carts which are ok. Pretty busy on a Saturday afternoon, kids friendly as well. Great service.

I've been anxiously awaiting for this location to open. I was thankful I was able to check it out the first day it was open to the public. Of course the Wayfinder brewer is fantastic and the design of the space is really well done. There are 3 food carts, Hawaiian, Japanese and Mediterranean. They weren't open yet but I'm. Looking forward to checking them out. There will also be 3 additional carts, an ice cream and pizza place inside the building. Fun things to come!

Great discovery!! Beer was superb...had the"Secret, Secret" dark lager was the right temp and served in a chilled mug. There's a variety of food carts...lots of seating inside and out. Will definitely come back!!

Melissa Jones

The space is really great. They serve beer, cocktails, hard seltzer and a few snacks but there are a few good carts outside that make up for it.

Garrett Grebe

Very good beer and really liked that our fairly large group had their choice of cuisine with all the food trucks. Will have to return to try the rest of the beers!
