The Pump House has rebranded and also now has tacos too (same ownership as Taqueria Picaro in Ashland).
Just a few minutes walk brings you to this lively indoor outdoor restaurant and bar with fire pits to cozy up around. You probably took note of this place on the drive in, as it is often the most happening place in talent! Good food & drinks with a casual order at the counter atmosphere. Food wise Talent’s food trucks also have great burgers and tacos too, but for drinks and ambiance the Pump House is happening!! They also have good lunch and happy hour specials!

Very unique Talent fixture! Multi course menu, all homemade and this family owned restaurant can accommodate dietary needs beyond what you see on the regionally varied menu. Food is good, atmosphere is unique though I haven’t been since they redecorated. I think the with photos covering the walls are a thing of the past! Staff very kind. Nice place for a slow meal, not uppity at all! No credit cards accepted.

Expansive menu from Indian fusion to burgers, to healthy bowls and salads! They have a large outdoor seating area and often have music on weekends. Great 1/2 off happy hour too! I highly recommend the Manchurian Cauliflower appetizer, and the butter chicken. You can sit by the fire and enjoy coffee, tea and espresso as well in this cozy space. Walking distance as well!

Food trucks
For a small town we’ve got lots of options! Some are downtown, some on Valley View Rd, some near the roundabout behind the liquor store! Not all have listings which show up as options on Airbnb so I can’t list them all. Go explore! There are 3 trucks by Legend Cider so grab a drink and check out the menus.
Legend has an expansive taproom of cider & beer, plus a few yummy food trucks... I love the Terriyaki one! There’s also Hula Grill Hawaiian and Yummy on Wheels. Such a great addition to Talent!
