Food Truck Catering for Events in Chicago
Whether you’re planning a summer festival on the lakefront, a corporate outing in the Loop, or a block party in Logan Square, nothing unites Chicagoans like great food. Modern food trucks make event planning easy—they roll in with fully licensed kitchens, self-contained power, and the same health permits used at Taste of Chicago. That means no pop-up tents, no long set-up times, just hot food served fast.
Best Food Trucks partners with the city’s most loved rolling restaurants to give you an unbeatable lineup for any gathering. Craving Latin flair? Invite La Cocinita Chicago and let guests build their own arepas and tacos. Need smoked goodness for a South Side picnic? Soul & Smoke will pull up with tender brisket and mac ’n’ cheese that tastes like Sunday at Grandma’s. For gourmet sandwiches that rival anything on Randolph Street, book The Fat Shallot. Looking for a handheld hit at a Cubs tailgate? 5411 Empanadas serves baked Argentinian pockets perfect for walking to Wrigley. And when your guests shout “Mangia!”, La Comodita answers with crispy arancini and Sicilian panelle straight from the fryer.
From movie nights in Millennium Park to weddings in Ravenswood lofts, food truck catering in Chicago brings variety, speed, and that unmistakable city flavor to every event. Let Best Food Trucks handle the scheduling and permits, and you can focus on what really matters—enjoying the party and hearing that first satisfied “Yum!”
Skip the Line, Chicago—Grab Your Food and Get Back to the Fun!
Nothing kills the vibe at a West Loop block party or a summer concert at Grant Park faster than a 30-minute food line. Best Food Trucks solves that Chicago problem with our slick online ordering system. Guests simply scan the truck’s QR code, tap in their order, and get a text the moment their Italian beef tacos or Garrett-style cheese curds are ready. No more shivering on the pier in November or sweating on the Midway in July while you wait for lunch.
Hosting a corporate outing in the Loop? Drop a pre-order link in your meeting invite so the sales team can schedule a 12:15 pick-up before the keynote starts. Planning a tailgate outside Soldier Field? Fans can order a Polish and fries on the Red Line ride over and snag it as soon as they hit the lot. Food trucks plus mobile ordering equals more time cheering, dancing, and networking—and less time standing around.
Give your Chicago event the winning combo of fast service and unforgettable eats with Best Food Trucks’ online ordering today.

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.

Everything was great but no one knew they could get a cookie, the sign for the type of pizza's and the cookie was not very visible. The team did a great job, food was hot and delicious (salad very good). We had some happy campers.
