Food Truck Catering for Des Moines Schools & Campuses

Whether it’s a lunch rush at Drake University, a Friday night football game at East High, or a field day in West Des Moines, nothing feeds hungry students and faculty faster than an eclectic lineup of on-campus food trucks. Best Food Trucks is Des Moines’ one-stop shop for school food truck catering, pairing local favorites with our seamless online ordering system so your crowd spends less time waiting and more time enjoying the event.

We’ve already teamed up with some of the metro’s most talked-about trucks, including mouth-watering Mexican options like Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, and Taqueria La Esperanza. Looking for something plant-forward after gym class? Try the locally loved Veggie Thumper. From carne asada to vegan grain bowls, every Bulldog, Tiger, and Maroon will find a plate they can cheer for.

Our best-in-class ordering software is built for Des Moines traffic—both online and on Grand Avenue—so students can preorder on their phones and grab lunch between classes without missing a beat. Gluten-free, nut-free, or dairy-free? We filter vendors by dietary needs to ensure every Hawkeye-in-training can eat safely.

Skip the headache of cold pizza and complicated cafeteria logistics. Let Best Food Trucks handle scheduling, permitting, and vendor coordination while you focus on creating unforgettable memories. For the most reliable and delicious food truck catering for schools in Des Moines, trust the team that knows the difference between a skywalk shortcut and a downtown detour—Best Food Trucks.

Matt,

The food trucks were a huge hit at our Drake Relays tailgate and again during finals week at Roosevelt High. Best Food Trucks handled everything—from permits to online pre-orders—so our students could focus on classes and our staff could actually enjoy lunch. Thanks for being such a dependable partner!
