Food Truck Catering for Events in Des Moines
Throwing an event in Des Moines—whether it’s a corporate mixer in the East Village, a graduation party in West Des Moines, or a Saturday movie night at Gray’s Lake—means guests will expect two things: Midwestern hospitality and unforgettable eats. Modern food truck catering delivers both. Unlike the old days of tent vendors that needed extra permits, generators, and hours of set-up, today’s Des Moines food trucks roll in with self-contained commercial kitchens and roll out just as easily, leaving you with nothing but happy attendees.
Best Food Trucks connects you with the top food truck catering for events in Des Moines. Want street-style tacos worthy of the Iowa State Fair midway? Book Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, or Taqueria La Esperanza for sizzling carnitas, fresh-pressed tortillas, and house-made salsas that’ll light up the night. Planning a wellness retreat near the Pappajohn Sculpture Park? Veggie Thumper can roll up with colorful plant-based bowls that even meat-lovers rave about.
From concerts at Water Works Park to tailgates outside Principal Park, renting a food truck for your Des Moines event gives guests more variety than any buffet line ever could. Gourmet or casual, vegan or cheesy, our local fleet is ready to serve—and Best Food Trucks makes the booking process as easy as a stroll down Court Avenue.
Skip the Line, Des Moines—Let the Fun Roll On!
Whether you’re hosting a charity 5K along the Des Moines Riverwalk or a wedding reception overlooking the golden dome of the Iowa State Capitol, waiting in a food line shouldn’t be part of the agenda. Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform lets your guests pull out their phones, choose their favorite Des Moines food truck menu, and get a text the moment their meal is ready. No more missing the headliner at 80/35, the fireworks at Principal Park, or your cousin’s toast at the reception.
Want to keep things even smoother? Send attendees a pre-order link so they can lock in a pick-up time before the first guitar strums or the opening whistle of the Drake Relays. From bacon-wrapped pork chops to vegan sweet-corn bowls, food trucks plus online ordering is the fastest, tastiest way to feed a crowd in Des Moines—while keeping the spotlight right where it belongs: on your event.

The food was absolutely amazing—the meats were tender and smoky, and every side dish was flavorful. The service team was outstandingly professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring all our guests were served quickly and with a smile. Most importantly, the entire event went off without a single issue. Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse delivered incredible food and zero stress, making them the absolute highlight of our day!

Luis of Senor Wooffle was terrific to work with. He was able to make some menu modifications that we needed. This is the first time we have used a Food Truck and were so pleased. BTW - his root beer floats were fabulous!
