    Pulled pork wrap
    Megan Y.

    YUM. What a gem! We stopped by Recess on our way to the cheese factory for a late lunch and the gals here are the absolute sweetest! So kind and welcoming and the food was awesome. They do not skimp on anything and the wraps are jam packed with meat and fresh produce and the salad was nice and crisp. Our tater tots and fries were also delicious, piping hot and I loved that the picnic tables were surrounded by blackberry bushes so you can just nibble on those after! (If that's not allowed, oops and sorry) Love seeing female run businesses kick ass!

    I've stopped and eaten here twice. First time I got the chicken wrap next time ordered the cheeseburger burger. Freshly made, good ingredients, friendly service, especially for the doggie.

    Chicken wrap with Mac & cheese

    Freshly made food to order, wanted a breakfast burrito that wasn't on the menu but she made us one anyway. Owner very sweet and accommodating to our needs. She even had treats for our dogs. We're coming back for sure!

    This is a food cart in Tillamook. Food is great. We each had the simple simon burger. They were cooked perfectly to order. The buns are homemade and the burger came with onions, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles. Side dishes we chose are the side salad and mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese is simple, straightforward and delicious This is good honestly food, done from scratch and delicious. They have a nice clearing behind the food cart with picnic tables. Service was friendly and quick. Love this pplace!!!

    Passing through town and decided to give Recess a second try last weekend. They now have a large, grassy outdoor area with picnic tables behind the truck...pretty cool. We ordered a Marco Polo and a Simon Says. Service was friendly, and the food took about 10 minutes. This go-round my burger was cooked to order, and the cheese was accounted for. They've still got one of the most unique and interesting buns around, and I love that a lil salad accompanies the burger and fries. The fries were great, with that hand-cut taste. The burgers were also tasty with fabulous grilled onions. My only real complaint pertained to the salt level. Both the fries and burger were on the salty side (but not the tots)...on the burger it could've been the bun, I couldn't be sure. Either way, if the salt was pulled back quite a bit it would definitely be a 5 star meal to me. Seems like they use high quality ingredients...and they serve up a nice meal. I'll definitely return sometime. I can always just ask for unsalted fries.

    Really good food with the service being very nice. I really enjoyed the little outdoor sitting area because it gave a nice cozy ambiance. Will probably get again if ever visiting here sometime.

    I'm so happy I was able to come back the next day and get the Cobb wrap!! The ambiance is awesome where the truck is situated its covered with shade and there's a nice breeze that comes through. I got there at 11 when they opened. The ladies there are super awesome! The food was delicious I got macaroni cheese was so good! The wrap was full of goodness and I will be back next time we pass through Tillamook. Don't sleep in this spot! Check it out you will not be disappointed! The service was great! I went in this afternoon after reading the awesome reviews and couldn't decide between the burger or the wrap. The girl recommended the burger as thats what they're known for. And I'm always down for a burger . It was delicious! The burger bun was even yum!! It wasn't a typical burger bun one buys from a store. It holds its self really good, which I was impressed by usually the bread gets all moosh at other places. The flavors went so well together the avacado was ripe and for a gal who loves to eat was satisfied! My all-time favorite thing about this food truck was that the meals come with an option of salad!! And fries, or macaroni and cheese OR tots! I love that. In New Zealand and Australia, a lot of meals come with Salads and fries, so it was cool that they do this, and it wasn't just misplaced greens either it was beautifully put together and dressed Thoroughly enjoyed it! 10/10. I'm going to try to come back tomorrow, but if not, next time we make a trip down the coast, I know where I'm stopping for food

    Remi thanks you for the chicken...

    As a self proclaimed clam chowder connoisseur I take the hunt for delicious clam chowder throughout…read morethe PNW coastal area very seriously. Each beach town my husband I travel to, I spend far too much time reading reviews about clam chowder. If only I spent as much energy in other areas of my life as I do "internet-researching" clam chowder, who knows what I could accomplish. I must say that the clam chowder at Werner Beef & Brew is exactly what I have been hunting for. It is the perfect texture and consistency. It has a spectacular balance of clam to potato ratio, and the potatoes are cooked to perfection. They don't have too much bite, nor do they disintegrate into mush the moment they enter your mouth. The chowder itself was worth traveling from Rockaway to Tillamook for. It was even worth a more industrial view vs. an establishment with a more coastal and picturesque backdrop. The salad bar was on point. The variety of salad add-ins, dressings, and topping crunchy-bits were epic. It was a nice balance to the very rich perfect chowder I am already missing. I miss it. I miss the chowder. My husband also got the fish tacos, based on others' reviews and enjoyed every bite. I enjoyed their Dragon Fruit Cider, and he ordered one of their Meaty Bloody Mary's. If you are on the fence if you should order one, you should. You should get that bloody mary. The bloody mary then led us to purchase some of their salami and bologna. It was an elevated version of the sandwich meat my grandpa used with white bread, yellow mustard (off-brand), ice burg lettuce, and a slice of cheddar cheese. Mid-life has me craving nostalgia. It might be the hormone imbalance, but salami white bread sandwiches, here I come.

We were the first ones there so we chose an outside table. Nice space with the fire table. It's a little off the street so everyone isn't in your business The drinks from the bar were not very good. Also the server was not very knowledgeable of the food or the drinks. We got some duck tacos on special. They were amazing. Ok. Things are looking up. Then the showstopper was the meat and cheese board. So beautiful and well explained and lots of handmade wares on. One of the best, if not the best, board I've had. Top notch. So why the bad reviews. We got to chat with the proprietor and we definitely caught them at a bad time. They are having some transitions in staff so if you're willing to be patient, it's worth a shot

One of the best recent improvements is the addition of online reservations, which makes it incredibly convenient after a day on the water or exploring the coast. It's a small change that makes the overall experience even better. Over multiple visits, I've worked my way through nearly the entire menu--including appetizers and desserts--and I've yet to have a disappointing dish. Everything has been consistently fresh, perfectly prepared, and full of flavor. At this point, I'd be happy letting the chef choose my meal because I know it's going to be excellent. If you're visiting the area and want seafood that's worth remembering, this is the place. Grab a window table if you can--the sweeping ocean views are spectacular, and on a clear day, you may even spot a whale spout offshore. It's the kind of dining experience that stays with you long after the meal is over. Highly recommend.
