Ice Cream Food Truck Catering in Austin
When the Texas sun turns extra toasty, Austinites know the cure: a scoop (or three) of artisan ice cream. Best Food Trucks makes it easy to bring Austin’s favorite frozen treats straight to your event—whether you’re throwing a birthday bash at Zilker Park, cooling down the crowd after a Hill Country wedding, or sweet-talking clients at a downtown tech mixer during SXSW.
Our hand-picked roster of dessert rigs is led by local legend Amy’s Ice Creams, home of the iconic Mexican Vanilla and more than 350 rotating flavors. Want classic cones, dairy-free fruit ices, or over-the-top sundaes loaded with mix-ins? Amy’s rolls up ready to scoop happiness faster than you can say “Hook ’em, Horns!”
Craving a full food-truck lineup? We can pair that frosty finale with savory crowd-pleasers like al-pastor tacos from El Buen Sason Tacos Al Pastor, Southern-inspired plates from Black Sheep Soul, or crave-worthy arepas from Four Brothers “Venezuelan Kitchen”. Finish the feast with wood-fired slices from Carter Bros' Pizza and you’ve got an Austin food-truck fiesta worthy of Rainey Street.
Every truck in our Austin network is vetted for premium ingredients, stellar service, and that unmistakable ATX vibe. From corporate offices off South Congress to family reunions on Lake Travis, we show up on time, handle the lines, and keep the ice cream flowing until the very last sprinkle.

The chef is wonderful! I went to the truck and window a bit before my pickup time. Thankfully it was a slow minute and he was able to accommodate me. The Turkey + Monterrey Jack crepe was very flavorful! I am really pleased and plan to order from them again! Great small business!
