Des Moines Food Truck Catering for Parties
Planning a birthday blow-out in Beaverdale, a graduation bash near Drake University, or a baby shower overlooking Gray’s Lake? Whatever the celebration, food can make or break the night. With food truck catering for parties in Des Moines, you skip the kitchen chaos, the endless cleanup, and the stress of timing dishes just right. Best Food Trucks brings the kitchen to you—self-contained, sparkling clean, and staffed by professional chefs who know how to keep Hawkeye State guests smiling.
Instead of cramming ovens and slow cookers into your South of Grand bungalow, roll in a crowd-pleaser like Tacos Degollado or the always-popular Tacos La Barca D.C.. Hosting vegan friends from the East Village farmers’ market crowd? Veggie Thumper has you covered with plant-powered comfort food. Fiesta vibes more your style? Book Ninas Tacos or the beloved Taqueria La Esperanza and watch guests line up faster than they do for pork-chop-on-a-stick at the Iowa State Fair.
From Jordan Creek tailgates to intimate backyard soirées in Waveland Park, our streamlined ordering and on-site setup mean you get all the credit for unforgettable eats without sacrificing square footage or sanity. Make life easier—let Des Moines’ best food trucks handle the cooking so you can focus on raising a toast, capturing photos, and enjoying the party you worked so hard to plan.
Skip the Line—Let Des Moines Party While We Cook!
Whether you’re dancing under the lights at a Historic East Village loft or cheering on the Cyclones and Hawkeyes during a backyard rivalry bash, nobody wants to waste time standing in line for food. Best Food Trucks makes party catering in Des Moines effortless with our cutting-edge online ordering system. Guests pull out their phones, choose their favorite food truck dishes—tender brisket sliders, birria tacos, or vegan mac from local legends—and then get a text when their order is hot and ready. No lines, no crowding, just smooth service that keeps the vibe alive.
Planning ahead? Shoot out a pre-order link with the invite so friends can snag a pickup time before they snap selfies at the John and Mary Pappajohn Sculpture Park or take that pontoon ride on Saylorville Lake. On party day, trucks roll up self-contained and spotless, your timeline stays intact, and you stay out of the kitchen. For Des Moines party catering that keeps guests mingling and the menu memorable, book a food truck with Best Food Trucks and watch the celebration run itself.

Food was amazing! Owners and staff really have a heart for service. All my guests raved about every item on the menu. Bananas Foster Plaintains were excellent and something no one had ever had.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.
