My Food Park HTX

Permanently Closed, the weeds are over grown, graffiti everywhere and Lola deserted for months unfortunately for us. :(

Anybody know where my food truck park relocated to? I think they lost their lease. They were asking suggestions. Last time I checked they were gone. Sad.

I always enjoy going here. variety of selection. kid friendly. great food but needs more tables. and try to bring ur own drinks too as u will expect them to be overpriced.

Love this place! Htown street eats is here, soul food on wheels, taco truck, so many. I have to try everything. The food off of these trucks have been amazing from Korean cheese steak to ox tails I am in heaven!

My husband and I have been here a couple of times, each with different trucks. The park is at a great location, lots of seating (even a large shaded area), plenty of free parking and has a port-​a-​potty too. Do bring your own drink if you like because they sell theirs at $ 2-​$ 3 each. Will definitely be back when there are trucks we want to try.

Great location, seating, port-​a-​potty, and special events.
This review is for the food truck park, not any of the food trucks themselves.
The food truck park is located near the intersection of Highway 6 and Memorial Drive, about a half-​mile north of Buffalo Bayou and Highway 6.
Before you arrive, grab a drink somewhere. If coming south, there is a gas station near the Memorial intersection that has fountain drinks, beer and wine. I am not sure if you can bring alcohol on site, however. There is also a Starbucks across the street at the Memorial intersection.
Yes, the park is located in a gravel lot. This is both good and bad… bad because of possible dust, but good for those sweltering hot days where you don’t want pavement. Compared to downtown, the best part about the lot is that parking is free.
We arrived on a Sunday and noticed there were plenty of spots to park. Tables are located in the back of the lot and on the side near some trees. There is a port-​potty behind the main office, which was very clean. A pump-​sink is located there as well, with some hand sanitizer. The park is very well kept, but we decided to eat in our car, where we had some A/​C.
Another good thing is that the park is open 7 days week! Sunday must be the slow day, as there were only five trucks there, compared to the day before when 9 trucks were onsite.
If you really feel stuffed after eating, drive south on Highway 6 about a half mile and go for a walk (or, better yet… bike) along Buffalo Bayou on the Terry Hershey or George Bush trails. Some of the George Bush trail is located behind the food truck park. There are also a couple of picnic tables near the bayou and Highway 6 if you would rather take your food there to eat.
Up-​to-​the-​minute news on the park’s Facebook page shows scheduling for food trucks, movies and concerts. We will return, perhaps on a Saturday when more trucks are available.

I really love how they have a great variety of food trucks coming out. Every day there are different trucks. They have a ton of space to sit and hang out. They have covered seating also.
They have a port-​o-​potty. Hold it if you can’t use those kinds of restrooms.
Also, bring your own drink if you can. They normally sell drinks for 2 to 3 dollars.

Discovered this park yesterday at our 4^th July party and immediately hit it up today — in spite of the thunder storms!
Great location, plenty of parking, restrooms, outdoor seating with umbrellas, bouncy castle for kids, and from the flyers i’ve seen they have great family evenings every Saturday.
We will be back for sure :)

A variety of food trucks and they change depending on the day. I have been here twice so far and have checked out Mr. sizzles, crêpe truck, pb&j, phở-​jita, and the Flippin patties. All good selections but a little on the pricey side. I always spend close to $ 20 on myself just for lunch and dessert. Check FB page for the schedule of food trucks. Upside is, they all pretty much take credit card and there is outside seating and parking.

In from Chicago and loves this place! Great options, friendly service, gluten free and vegan options! If I ever find myself there again I would go back in a heartbeat!

Please note that my review is for the park itself and not the different food trucks that come out here to do business. Each individual food truck will get separate reviews after I’ve tried them, obviously.
I didn’t know they had a food park on this side of town. I know about the food truck park in East Downtown area, but I thought that was the only one. But then here I was, just driving North on Highway 6 and to my left, I saw a whole bunch of food trucks! Seriously, I saw the food trucks and I immediately made a very unsafe lane changes all the way from the right lane to the left lane just so I could bust a U-​turn immediately. No human beings, or animals, or trash cans, or any other objects were hurt during the instance that I was using my Belly to think instead of my brain. Phew!
After I turned into the park, I noticed that this park was way bigger than the one in the downtown area. This park also has seating area so you can actually sit down and eat without having to bring your own folding table or chair (like I did at the downtown location). There were also a couple of porta potties if you need to go do your business. I didn’t use them so I’m not sure whether or not they have soap or hand sanitizer for the customers. However, the food trucks should have some.
Although there is limited seating at the dining area, there’s plenty of space should you want to bring your own folding table and chairs. And also, there seems to be additional seating area behind the main office. At the time I was there, there weren’t that many people eating (I was there around 1:30 pm so it was way past lunch time) so there were ample seating. The dining area also has umbrellas to cover you from the sun or rain should Houston’s weather chooses to go crazy on you.
At the time I was there, I think there were five or six food trucks. There was Bernie’s Burger Bus, the Waffle Bus, Flip N’ Patties, Cupcakes on the Stick, and a couple other food trucks that I didn’t really pay attention to because I was in a rush (this was, after all, an unplanned stop.) There was, however, a lot more space for more food trucks, The lot (all 3.5 acres of it) should be able to hold 20 food trucks at any one time with no problem and still have plenty of parking space! That’s how big it is.
Now, if you’re planning on dropping in, check out their Facebook page to know what food trucks are going to be out there. I was told that the schedule is updated nightly. Or early morning at the latest if there were some late cancellations from the vendors.
All in all, this is a great place to go and try different food trucks. This is especially good for people who are living more on the West side so they don’t have to drive all the way to Downtown to experience a food truck park. Now we just need to have more people know about the park so more vendors would camp out here more and this could potentially be one of the best hang out places in the Houston area!

I’ve only been to one other food truck park and it was the one in Austin. So, the fact that this place has a bathroom and parking and a area for the kids to play in makes this park great!
Lot of trucks come out, so you’l get a great variety!

I love this concept and the fact that I don’t live far from here. I hate that I work so far from it so I could visit more often. I love the food truck scene and the fact that they can have a spot to gather so I don’t have to hunt one down throughout the city.
They are usually open lunch time from 11 – 2, and most days they have dinner from 5 – 8 or 9. I recommend following them on Facebook and/​or Twitter. The owner of the park is very interactive and will keep you updated all day with which trucks are there complete with pictures. They are definitely using social media correctly, since that was how I even found out about the place. Plus the owner is super nice and friendly, she recognized me from the social media-​sphere the day I went. So cool!
The day I was able to go, I had the Wicked Fries from the Pocket To Me truck. These perfectly cooked fries are covered in spicy sausage, cheese, chives, fire hot spices, their special «wicked» sauce, and sour cream. They were darn spicy and oh-​so good!!! I’m instantly a fan of this truck.
My sister had the Kimchi Fries from Chi’Lantro truck. This truck is pretty famous and I saw when they were featured on Eat Street on the Cooking Channel. Anyway, Kimchi Fries are french fries covered in caramelized Kimchi, Korean BBQ, onions, cheeses, cilantro, magic sauce, sriracha and sesame seeds. I tasted them and they were fantastic.
Afterwards, we had cupcake push pops from the Zeapod Cakery truck. I had the red velvet and the strawberry (I’m greedy). I forget which one my sister got. The cake was fluffy, the icing was perfect. So gooood.
The atmosphere is similar to being at a small fair or carnival without the rides. You will sit outside in the gravel parking lot on plastic lawn furniture under lawn umbrellas and eat. Nothing wrong with that, but don’t expect something super luxurious. My sister used their bathroom and from what she said it could use some work, but it is a gravel parking lot so neither of us were expecting luxury there either.
Support small local business and just go. Try something new or get something from your favorite truck.

For those who are actually reading my review and all the other ones, I want to point out that this review is solely for the food park, the accommodation the park have, and nothing more. Any of the food trucks that are parked and serving there whether during lunch or dinner time will be reviewed on their Unilocal page, not on here.
That being said, this little (or big) piece of land is being utilized at its best. From my understanding is that a certain food truck owner was tired of business building owners turning down having any food trucks parking onsite due to the possibility of competing against onsite cafeteria or deli shop. So they bought this land and welcome the Houston food truck community to have a place for them to not worry about the hassle of getting permission from so and so and know that it’s close to the Energy Corridor and people are willing to travel to this place and get their food.
There’s 2 entrances/​exits for this food park and there’s somewhat of a big marquee sign so people know where it is if they somehow missed all those food trucks parking right by the highway. Now the parking is pretty much make your own parking. Most people simply park by the side or there’s a huge back lot. But never less, there should be plenty of parking for people to come and enjoy this food truck park. One thing people needs to be aware is that the ground is pretty much all gravel, and the back lot is just land. There is no smooth pavement of any kind.
The good thing about this place is that there’s seats and tables (empty spools) and some have umbrellas to cover the high sun for the lunch time. Then there’s also a sound system hooked up where they are playing whatever-​local-​radio station they felt like putting it on. There’s also restrooms inside the building and port-​a-​john behind the building. Did I mention the building is now fully tagged with awesome graffitis? I believe they also provide the cones for the food trucks to mark the City of Houston’s policy where how far the food truck needs to be away from a place to sit and eat.
I am glad there’s a food truck park so close to where I live and work. I will definitely try to stop by here as much as possible.

Food trucks are so awesome. A lot of them in one park is even better. Having it right by the office? BINGO!
There were so many choices it was so hard to choose!!! I have been wanting to try Kim Chi Ramen for the longest time and was super excited to see it on the menu. I was disappointed in the ramen (tasted like regular cheap ramen noodles) but everything else was delicious! (see picture) I think spicy mayo pretty much makes any food much more appetizing =)
Looking forward to our next work field trip to the food trucks!

This is so exciting, Energy Corridor getting a food park – yay! We’re somewhat «hip» now.
:-P
The place is not very visible, you have to be really looking for it. It is right on the opposite side of the lot with Starbucks/​Kolache Factory. I wish they’d put up much more prominent signs. There’s a good mix of trucks that come (though I do wish there were more vegetarian friendly trucks) – Flip ‘n Patties, HTown StrEats, Chilantro, Bernie’s Burger Bus, Food Patty Wagon, Phonatic, Pocket To Me, Musubi, Taco Nuts, Speers Rolling Bistro are the food trucks I’ve seen so far. I really hope this catches steam and becomes a permanent fixture. Would be nice if they had a specific seating area that was shaded and more pleasant than the current option though.

I hope to have an updated review where there are more positive points, but I’m not sure if we’ll come back.
We went today for our lunch break, which seemed like a great idea, since we work in the Energy Corridor. Traffic was light, so we arrived in five minutes.
There were a few tables with umbrellas to eat under, but not enough for folks wanting to eat there and avoid the beaming sun. The gravel is not comfortable wearing any kind of business attire for shoes. The gravel was also an issue with some trucks driving away leaving a trail of dust flying around near the tables.
After waiting in line for 15 minutes for Chilantro and waiting an additional 25 minutes for the actual food, we spent most of our lunch waiting. Yes, the weather has been a bit cooler, but at noon, with the sun beating down on you, it’s still HOT — especially when you’re in your work clothes. Chilantro had the right idea of having a small tent to block the sun, but it doesn’t help when you’ve already ordered and are waiting even longer for your food to be prepared.
We sat next to a couple of women complaining about the Taco Nuts truck taking 10 minutes for their one taco that was ordered. They ended up also getting food from PhoNatic, which had very quick service.
The dessert/​cupcake truck and snow cone truck there did not have lines.
The overall experience for this soft opening is 2 stars. I’ll rate the individual trucks we visited separately. This rating is soley for the food park itself.

I’m so pissed (my tummy isn’t though, trust me) this place came so close to my job! I mean seriously… I’m trying to shed some pounds people and these food trucks so nearby are not helping in the least damn bit!
I heard about this place from some coworkers who dined 2 days earlier. It was a good 6 trucks out there today; just different types of food galore (including a dessert truck). Apparently it changes daily so like them on Facebook to keep in the know! *Link* –
Tables all around, shaders on some of them with plastic chairs but still this Houston sun beats on you from the side… it’s a bit piercing though not hot. Damn sho’ll ain’t keeping me away, let me point that out right quick! Loads of people were already there when we got there, think I’ll come before noon next time especially for the more popular trucks. I can’t imagine when it really starts poppin out there… they definitely will need more tables for that noon crowd.
Good parking lot, some shade is further back… gravel road, it isn’t 5 star atmosphere but the level and variety of food trucks around is on point and that’s all my belly cares about…
Most have squares so you’re good to go even with no George Washingtons in hand.

My Food Park is such a clever idea. Different food trucks in one place with areas to sit and music… very cool!
Ate Vietnamese and dessert — both delicious! Can’t wait to see what I find on my next visit!

Just off of the intersection of Highway 6 and Memorial, this location will be great for people working in the Energy Corridor (especially on BP’s campus).
It is essentially an open gravel lot, with nothing too fancy, but a few nice tables and lawn chairs.
Zeapod cakery is a staple (I believe the owner of the truck is also the owner of the park). Bernie’s Bueger Bus, Skratch, PocketToMe, Kona Ice, and Pink Box are the trucks I’ve seen so far.
I’ll be curious how successful this can be.
