Vendor Bender

So much fun! Love getting to experience new snacks from around the world. Last time we were there, they were filling up machines and the dude let us try what he was snacking on. Parking sucks.

Listen up folks!! This snack and drink paradise is a sweet spot!!! Well, sometimes salty, spicy, or even sour. More than a dozen vending machines line the walls in this house of tasty treats. While some do the candy, chips and drinks are familiar, the majority of the products are from foreign countries. While there are a few staples (Lays potato chips - with many flavors to choose from), the inventory is ever changing, providing the opportunity to get out of your comfort zone and try something new. Definitely check this spot out…. You won’t be disappointed and your taste buds will thank you!!!

Super cool place! Big selection and good prices. So fun to go and pick out different items from all over the world! The inside was clean and the machines are nice and organized. They take cash and cards including tap to pay, and they also have grocery bags available for free to put all of your snacks in. Already can’t wait to go back!

When it comes to an exciting little outing I strongly recommend Vendor Bender. It is a fantastic addition to Squirrel Hill. 24/7 vending machines galore brimming with chocolates, chips, sweets and fascinating drinks from all around the world. There are a large number of items to try. It is highly likely you have never seen most of these before. Most items are around $2 to $3.50. You can take a tasty trip around the world right here in Pittsburgh anytime you feel like. You don't need to check their hours since they don't close. As the popularity has increased the freshness has soared.

It's the Yummiest place to get snacks from around the globe, open 24/7. I truly recommend it for some late night munchies!

Such a fun place to buy snacks from around the globe. The owner is nice and items are changed regularly. Always something new to enjoy. They take credit cards...so don't worry about not having change.

Love this place! An ever changing stock of international snacks?!?! Yes please! I'm going to have a hard time not stopping by weekly just to see whats in stock!

Just an open shop with tons of vending products from all over the world.apparently the selection changes regularly, but I'm not from the area so I can't confirm.

If you want to try different snacks from around the globe, this is the place you should come to. My husband and I had a good time picking out snacks from all over the world to sample.

A fun place to explore and try new things from other cultures. It was a different experience and I’ll do it again!

They have a great selection of content from all over the world. Not only do they have chips, candy and drinks, but there is a machine with meats and cheeses. Today I got some snacks from Taiwan, India, and the Philippines.

We love this place! Big Orange Chupa Chup fan here 👌we love Jupina too

A unique place that offers a wide selection of snacks, drinks and charcuterie items from all around the world. Mostly all the machines had a card reader so you do not need exact change. Stock rotates weekly so you can expect to see something new. It’s also open 24/7 as well. I loved it and when I’m on that side of town, I will swing by again.

Really worth stopping in, machines are well maintained and 24/7 it seems, incredible selection!

This place has a lot of different choices of snacks and drinks from all over the world. The self-serve atmosphere is convenient, and the items are not much more expensive than you would pay for normal American vending machine items. They are also responsive to their customers on Facebook and have extended their hours. I hope this place sticks around!

This spot is really dope! Derek the owner is always on site... if you have a question about anything in the machines or need to see a product. Something about putting money into these machines feels like playing a game. Like an adult Chuck E Cheese where you win cool snacks and drinks!
My favorite thing I tried was the Beef and Onion flavored chips from Ireland. I've been to most of the ethnic shops in Pittsburgh, and this is quite frankly the largest selection of international variety I've ever seen. I am not sure any store in all of Pennsylvania covers this many regions. I tried this dandelion tea from England that was unreal! I will definitely be back.

Soooooo fun. Love all the options. I couldn't decide!!!!

always the best selection! love this place!

There were a lot of different options available.

Havent had the chance to visit yet but the concept is amazing and I already know I'm going to enjoy the experience.
