Food Truck Catering for Chicago Schools & Campuses
Whether your campus is steps from Lake Michigan or tucked along the CTA’s Red Line, nothing fuels Chicago students and faculty like a great food truck. Best Food Trucks makes Chicago school food truck catering easy. From Friday night football games at Lane Tech to everyday lunch service at CPS charter academies, our team curates the perfect lineup of on-campus food trucks so no one has to wait in a cafeteria line that rivals traffic on the Kennedy.
Using Best Food Trucks’ seamless online ordering platform, your students can place lunch orders between classes, grab their meal, and still make it to the next bell. Teachers and staff can pre-schedule pickup times—perfect for those grading marathons in the teachers’ lounge. We handle all scheduling, permits, and dietary checks, ensuring every event—be it homecoming, alumni weekend, or standardized-testing breakfasts—runs smoother than a Wrigley Field seventh-inning stretch.
Chicago campuses are known for their diversity, and your food options should match. Here’s a taste of the Windy City food trucks we frequently book for school catering:
- La Cocinita Chicago – Venezuelan-inspired Latin bowls, tacos, and arepas that bring a pop of color and flavor to quads from Hyde Park to Rogers Park.
- Soul & Smoke – Chef D’Andre Carter’s slow-smoked brisket and mac ’n’ cheese give your pep rally the same energy you’d find at a summer barbecue in Washington Park.
- The Fat Shallot – Gourmet sandwiches like their truffle BLT keep Northwestern all-nighters happily fed without leaving the library.
- 5411 Empanadas – Hand-held Argentinian empanadas—ideal for students hustling between the Arts Building and their next Blue Line stop.
- La Comodita – Sicilian street-food classics that make every PTO meeting feel like a summer evening in Palermo—right in Pilsen.
From CPS elementary field days to college orientation week downtown, Best Food Trucks delivers reliable, crowd-pleasing Chicago school food truck catering. Let us elevate your campus dining experience so you can focus on education—while we take care of the cravings.
Matt,
Your crew absolutely crushed it during DePaul’s Welcome Week and again at our city-wide STEM Expo on Navy Pier. Best Food Trucks handled Chicago school food truck catering at three different campuses—from Lincoln Park to the South Loop—without a single hitch. Fast, dependable, and tastier than a Vienna Beef dog at Wrigley. Thanks for being such a solid partner!
