Food Truck Catering for Chicago Schools & Campuses
Whether classes let out near the L tracks in the Loop or you’re cheering on the Ramblers up in Rogers Park, nothing satisfies hungry students like a lineup of Chicago’s favorite food trucks. Best Food Trucks makes Chicago school food truck catering effortless, giving CPS principals, university event planners, and athletic directors an easy way to bring hot meals right to the quad, gym, or parking lot.
Our platform connects you with a deep roster of local legends. Book Venezuelan arepas from the bright-red La Cocinita Chicago, fall-off-the-bone brisket from Soul & Smoke, gourmet sammies from The Fat Shallot, crispy Argentinian pastries via 5411 Empanadas, or Sicilian street eats from La Comodita—all without leaving your desk. From pep rallies at Lane Tech to late-night study breaks at UIC, we’ve got every neighborhood and palate covered.
Our best-in-class online ordering system eliminates hallway-length lines. Students and faculty place orders on their phones, get real-time pick-up times, and can even track the truck while they’re finishing that last problem set. Gluten-free, vegetarian, halal—our diverse Chicago food truck partners accommodate the full spectrum of dietary needs.
Leave the permits, scheduling, and vendor vetting to us. Best Food Trucks has already mapped out load-in spots from Hyde Park to Evanston and handles all the paperwork with the city so you can focus on what matters: creating an unforgettable campus experience. Level up your next spirit week, alumni weekend, or everyday lunch period with Chicago’s premier school food truck catering service.
Matt,
Your crew absolutely delivered during CPS Appreciation Week and at our Ramblers Welcome Bash. Best Food Trucks is hands-down the easiest food truck catering service for schools in Chicago—smooth permits, happy students, zero stress.
