Mr. Gourmet Sausage was AWESOME! They arrived with plenty of time to set-up, kept me up to date on the number of guests served, and were super courteous to our guests. Best Food Trucks made the booking very easy and were so pleasant to work with.

It was so fun having the truck at our wedding! The truck arrived on time, people were served quickly, and the person working the truck was so kind and accommodating. We loved taking photos with the truck with our photographer and we got sent with lots of leftovers at the end of the night. All our guests continue to rave about the ice cream sandwiches!

Papi’s catered my daughter’s high school graduation party. They were such a huge hit! The adults, the teenagers and all the kids kept raving about how delicious everything was. They had a great variety to choose from…something for everyone. Even the pickiest eater loved them. And it was a different and unique food truck option, something more fun than your average food truck. I wholeheartedly recommend them for your next party. I’m still getting texts from family and friends talking about the food. They were amazing!!!

My family and I love these whoopie pies and all the varieties! If you could find a food truck pick up spot closer to Exeter/Portsmouth we would love them even more!

Very friendly gentleman! The whoopie pies were great!! I plan on ordering some to send down south to my daughter in college. Her friends have never had Whoopie pies so I'm going to send them the mini ones. They'll love them. How would I go about doing that?
