Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Albany, NY

Best Food Trucks brings the capital city’s favorite mobile kitchens to your festival, concert, or MVP Arena tailgate with turnkey food truck catering for large-scale events.

Compared with old-school tent vendors, today’s food trucks arrive at Empire State Plaza, Jennings Landing, or your corporate campus with a fully self-contained kitchen. No extra permits for open flames, no generators sprawled across the lawn, and no long tear-downs slowing traffic on Madison Avenue. Our streamlined service keeps lines moving so your guests can get back to the music, the game, or the fireworks.

Best Food Trucks curates a lineup that reflects Albany’s diverse taste buds:

  • Eggy's Place – an American Bistro on wheels flipping fluffy breakfast sandwiches and gourmet comfort classics.
  • Michele's Charcoal Pit Food Truck – Albany’s go-to for smoky, fire-kissed chicken platters that satisfy even the hungriest Great Danes fan.
  • The Healthy Cafe Catering Co. – multicultural bowls and wraps that keep the Capitol workforce energized without the food-coma.
  • Heisenburgers – science-level perfection in every handcrafted hamburger, perfect for LarkFest street cravings.
  • Smokey Salsa Grill – Mexican-fusion tacos and fresh salsas that turn any Hudson Riverfront gathering into a fiesta.

Whether you need five trucks for 5,000 runners at the Freihofer’s Run for Women or a single show-stopping rig for a corporate picnic in Lincoln Park, Best Food Trucks handles scheduling, on-site logistics, and mobile-ordering technology so you don’t have to lift a finger.

We did a pre order online and didn't know the burgers came with fries - not an issue just something that would be nice to know because we ordered additional fries then

Freshness. Crispy oinion rings and fries. Burgers were perfectly built. Only critique would be on the pricey side.

Food is 10/10. I look forward to ordering every time it's by the office. The staff working the truck are so kind too.

The crispy crunchy bread. Also like that it doesn't come with a side because the sandwich is plenty by itself.

When we ordered in September, it was awesome! This time, there were 4 misshapen ribs (one huge, 2 medium, one bite size). The sausage also tasted overcooked and was sliced into small pieces (nothing like the last time). The is was the first time that we had food requested at the start of the shift, and not at 7:00 PM, and it seemed as if this was leftover from a prior shift and 'dumped' on us. Was still tasty with the sauce, but disappointed in this trip (and we raved about Logan's to many friends.....)

The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.

Food was great! It was made exactly how I wanted. I had loaded steak fries without lettuce. Food was nice and hot and flavorful. The staff was very nice thoughtful and attentive. I will definitely be ordering from this business again and leaving a nice tip . Thank you for the great food

We ordered the Chili Chicken Pizza, Pepperoni Pizza, and an order of wings. Everything was delicious

The Buffalo Chicken Pizza was perfect and the Pepperoni with Bell Pepper was good. I personally had a problem with my veggie pizza, but it is really my fault because I guess the veggie pizza comes with Truffle Oil on it and either I didn't see that or I don't like Truffle Oil. So really the truck gets a 5.
