Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Grand Rapids, MI

Grand Rapids knows how to throw a party—whether it’s a packed concert at Ah-Nab-Awen Park, ArtPrize crowds spilling down Monroe Center, or thousands of runners celebrating the Amway River Bank Run finish. Every West Michigan gathering needs fast, flavorful, and reliable food service, and that’s where Best Food Trucks comes in. We supply the top local trucks and can feed groups of 500, 5,000, or even 50,000 with ease.

Gone are the days when event planners wrestled with bulky concession tents on Calder Plaza. Modern food trucks arrive as fully self-contained commercial kitchens. They roll up, pop open, and start cooking within minutes—no extra generators, no complicated permits, and no long tear-down times. That means less stress for organizers and more great eats for your guests.

Ready to wow the crowd? Check out some Grand Rapids favorites we can bring to your next large-scale event:

  • Craving a cool treat for a steamy July afternoon? MyCone Creamery hands out premium, small-batch ice-cream cones your guests will chase up and down the Grand River.
  • Need multicultural flavors for an international company picnic at Riverside Park? Roll Call by Gettin' Fresh delivers a global menu that satisfies every palate.
  • Want mission-ready meals for a tailgate outside Van Andel Arena? Airborne Burritos serves handcrafted burritos and bowls with military precision.
  • Looking to add breakfast-for-dinner flair to Movies in the Park? Waffle Stix brings Michigan’s original gourmet waffles-on-a-stick, both sweet and savory.
  • Finishing the night with something sweet at Frederik Meijer Gardens? Around Baking Company offers baked-from-scratch desserts everyone will remember.

Best Food Trucks coordinates menus, schedules, insurance, and point-of-sale systems so you can focus on ticket sales and entertainment. Our on-site attendants keep lines moving, and our digital ordering platform lets guests browse menus and pay right from their phones—perfect for spread-out venues like DeVos Place convention halls.

Love the popper. I liked how the jalapeño is within a tortilla so the filling doesn't spill out. Your tortillas are excellent.

I was just a little disappointed that they didn't have the chess pie that I had ordered. The red beans and rice were really good.
