Food truck catering brings an on-site full service kitchen to your location to serve made to order meals to your guests. No more trough style scoop and serve catering with food made hours before your meal. Food trucks offer a variety of menu items to choose from, so there is something to appeal to everyone's taste. Ditch the old style of scoop and serve catering and bring a full service kitchen to your event! You'll be able to select from multiple food trucks in your region and quickly schedule them for your event using our automated outreach system. Our catering professionals can help you choose from our wide range of affordable food truck catering options that work best for your event. Additionally, we can coordinate all logistics and provide round the clock support before, during and after your event.
In addition to being the best choice serving your guests, food truck catering is also a great way to support local businesses. When you hire a food truck, you're not only getting great food, but you're also helping to boost the local economy. Food trucks are owned and operated by solo entrepreneurs and family small businesses. Food trucks are also a great option for eco-friendly catering. Food trucks use less energy than traditional catering methods, and generate less waste.

They are one of the only true NY/NJ style pizzas in Tampa. Plus they said the first 10 online orders get free zeppoles and they were true to their word. The food & service is awesome.

The fries were the BEST!! The meat was a little on the salty side for my tastes (but I don't add salt to my food) Overall it was excellent, I like that it wasn't prepared until I got there eventhough I ordered in advance!

Put the baked beans in a separate bag, knotted to prevent spillage. 1/3 of my beans ended up under the main container inside the bag.

Food was really good. Only thing I recommend is not skimping on the brisket. Ordered a 3 meat platter with sausage, brisket and chicken. The amount of chicken we got was a lot compared to everything else. Chicken just happens to be the most inexpensive item for the business so I feel like that was on purpose.

Food was good. I specifically marked no bacon on my order but there was bacon on it anyway. But that's okay, I just pulled it off and gave it to the dog. lol

The food is amazing! I got caught in traffic so was well behind my pre-order time, the food was still made fresh when I got there. Can’t wait for them to come again!
We allow you to start your request by entering your minimum budget. Therefor all of the proposals you receive for your request will come in at either that minimum budget you entered or include a budget increase requested by the food truck on top of your minimum budget. This ensures that you will always receive the best price for your booking.
Please reach out to ur customer service team and they can adjust any details on your request, but please keep in mind that if this causes the budget to decrease for any reason the request may have to be restarted and resent out to the food trucks to submit new proposals.
The food truck will have a set overage per person price that can be added to the budget before the event starts, or we can invoice for the approved overages after the event. We will send you an email during the event asking if you need any overages, you can request the overages then. Please keep in mind that the food truck may only bring limited extra servings for your event if not told how many more to expect before the event start date, so at that point they would serve their extra food until they sell out and BFT would invoice you accordingly for those approved overages after the event. Please note, it’s best to let the food truck know how many extra meals they are approved to serve through our online request system.
Typically food trucks will be prepared to still serve in most weather situations, but if the weather does impact your event and you need to push back the date, all parties will communicate to see if a new date can be rescheduled for your event.
We have implemented a chat feature so that clients can reach out to food trucks directly before or after booking to ask questions or supply extra details about the event. You can access this feature when reviewing the proposals or after booking a food truck. Please note that any contact information, budget questions, or related questions may be flagged by the chat feature and not sent to the food truck. This has been implemented to that our BFT team can monitor any changes to the event that otherwise might be discussed directly so that our team can stay up to date on any changes to the request.
The request link we send you can be copied and shared with anyone you send it to who will then have access to review the proposals at any time. Please keep in mind that only the initial client will have access to view the budgets for that request and will only be shown the proposals, not the cost to book the food truck. Only you would have access to the budget information. We only allow one mobile number and email per request, so please make sure that they person who will be actually booking is listed on that request. Please contact customer support if you need to modify the client contact information.
If you started the request, you can follow through with the entire booking and then share the final invoice with anyone you would like to make the payment. Simply download the invoice for payment due and share that PDF file with the person that will be paying. That person can then select ‘Pay Invoice’ from that invoice PDF file and make payment.)
After booking a food truck you will be sent an email with a link to pay the invoice due. If the booking is outside of two weeks, you will only be required to pay 50% of the total due and then the remaining final pay would need to be completed a day before the event start date. If within two weeks, full pay for the event would be required. We distribute the 50% deposit pay out to the truck immediately in which the event would then be considered officially booked. We would then issue the final payout to the food truck once the event has been completed. If you had any approved overages we would send a separate invoice to you after the event. We offer two forms of payment, either by card or ACH payment. Please note that within 7 days of the event only card payment can be accepted. ACH payments have no fee, but there is a 2.9% processing fee added to the budget for card payments. We do not accept checks unless that is the only form of payment, in which a 5% check fee would be added to the budget total. If you need to pay with a purchase order, please let our team know and we can fill out the required forms needed, but this may not be an option if the event is less than two weeks away. We do not accept extended ‘net pay’ and the total amount due must always be received before the event start date with no exceptions. We do not back out taxes for tax exempt organizations and the budget is all-inclusive (tax, gratuity, and all related booking expenses within your budget total.
Please contact our customer service team about the cancellation and you would be refunded accordingly based on the food truck’s refund policy listed on their request. Each truck may have a different set of refund policies, so please review that before booking the food truck. Some trucks may offer no refunds after booking.
Sometimes a food truck may need to pull out of an event for an emergency reason, in which our team would then do everything possible to find you a replacement option. If the replacement option does not work for you, or one can not be found, our company would issue a full refund.
Please contact our customer service team about the issue and we will do our best to resolve the situation in the fairest way possible for all parties involved.
Please let us know this information as soon as possible along with the name of the company and address of that company needed for the COI. Food trucks can typically get the COI’s issued for your event from their insurance companies within 24-48 hours).
The food truck will not be considered officially booked until our company sends them over the deposit for the event. The food trucks expect to receive the deposit within 48 hours of being selected and may take other events until that deposit is received. In cases where your event is more than two weeks away and only a 50% deposit is initially required, the final pay must be completed a five days before the event start date.
We recommend selecting and getting payment down on a food truck as soon as possible because these vendors receive multiple requests and typically will book on a first come, first serve basis. Whoever gets the food truck the deposit payment to the food truck first for that date will get that truck.
