Awesome totally vegan! - Edit
Been here twice so far, I get so excited when I see the purple truck! I had a burger and fries; it comes loaded with toppings, my favorite part is you don’t have to customize or worry about anything not being vegan! It always delivers and is delicious and dimensional! Cool, creative and friendly people! Thank you for existing! Also GF friendly!

Stellar - Edit
What a treasure to find. My sister and I stopped by en route to NH. Truck this Sunday was on Congress Ave. near Thompson’s Point. Brekkie was amazing. Please tell me how to make chickpea bacon! Such a beautiful sandwich of textures and flavors—salty, mild, smoky, sweet… Tater tots with maple smoky sauce, OMG. And maple lemonade. What a decadent and delicious brunch.

Delicious and not too heavy - Edit
Traveling from Brunswick ME to Logan, was looking for something vegan and accessible. Found their location was close to the highway and stopped. Food was ready pretty fast and it was so good! Felt satisfied but not stuffed.

Amazing vegan comfort food! - Edit
We got the 80s dog and the baconator burger. This was one of the best vegan burgers I’ve had! It was homemade, high quality, crispy, and super flavorful. My partner loved the hot dog and we both will definitely be coming back!

Name is accurate! - Edit
Delicious vegan fast food, has both a lunch and brunch menu. Changes locations daily—you can see where they are on Instagram or their website. Especially nice when they are on the Eastern Promenade and you can enjoy your food there. My favorite all vegan place in Portland (although there are sadly not that many)
Read morePros: Make their own burgers and cheese sauce

As advertised, totally awesome!! - Edit
The food here is a great splurge. My husband and I got the baconator, which had homemade vegan bacon, vegan Gouda, jalapeños, and an amazing homemade vegan patty. They offer gluten free buns, and their fries are in a dedicated gluten free fryer.

Delish. - Edit
Got the breakfast sandwich as part of the special Sunday brunch menu and it was delicious. Tots were good, too, but the egg sandwich was lit. Would have gone back for another if I wasn’t so full!

Totally vegan & delicious - Edit
My first time ordering from the truck was for Sunday Brunch. Awesome and friendly staff, and I am so thankful that a fully vegan food truck exists in Portland! I absolutely LOVED the maple tots. The breakfast sandwich was really good but it was a bit dry so I added vegan mayo at home and it was delicious. I will keep coming back to try everything!

Amazing - Edit
Love TAVFT - best black bean burger I have ever had. Menu is always amazing. Prices are high-ish - only because I wish I could visit more - but the quality is absolutely worth it. My carnivore husband loves it too!
Read morePros: Best vegan comfort food on the planet!, Even meat-eaters will love it.
Cons: Prices are, maybe 20% higher than the average food, truck, but the food is at least 50% better.

WOW - Edit
This food truck is outstanding! Like with any food truck, there are just a few items to choose from but you can’t go wrong with whatever you order. Creative, tasty, and thoughtfully prepared, this is comfort food at its finest! The Sunday special features a breakfast sandwich that is out of this world. The lemonade is a perfect compliment as well. The service was so friendly. The only downside was that there was no place near where the food truck was parked to sit and eat. We ended up driving a few minutes to a park to enjoy our food.
Read morePros: All vegan, Creative food, Friendly service
Cons: No seating by the food truck

So glad I found this on HappyCow! - Edit
I am passing through Portland on my way to Acadia National Park, and I am so glad I was able to catch this truck while here! I had a black bean cheeseburger, jalapeño cheese fries, and maple sweetened lemonade. Seriously some of the best food I’ve had, especially the dang cheese sauce!
Read morePrices were a bit steep ($10 burger and I think $6 fries), so I’m sure it’s a lotta work to run a food truck.
