Skip the Line and Soak Up the Kansas City Vibes
Nothing kills the mood at a Brookside block party or a graduation bash at Loose Park faster than a long food line. Best Food Trucks’ online ordering system was built to keep Kansas City celebrations moving. Guests tap in their order on a phone, grab another Boulevard beer, and get a text when their ice-cold treat is ready—no crowding around the window, no guessing when the cone will drop.
Hosting a company picnic near Union Station or a post-game gathering outside Kauffman Stadium? Send a pre-order link in advance so employees or fans can choose a specific pick-up time. Their sundae or Dole Whip will be waiting the minute they walk up, even if the Royals go into extra innings.
Online ordering means you keep the focus on your event, not the logistics. We streamline payment, timing, and traffic flow so you can concentrate on lawn games, first dances, or hearing the brass band at the American Jazz Museum. It’s the easiest way to serve premium Kansas City ice cream food truck catering without lifting a finger.
From amateur party planners to veteran event pros, everyone trusts Best Food Trucks for smooth, professional results. Let us handle the scoops while you handle the memories—KC style!

We were a little nervous that they would need more time to set up, as they didn't arrive until about 25-30 minutes before our event. However that was the only potential negative aspect. These guys were quick with getting food out, I had so many positive comments regarding how good the food was I lost track how many there were. I would absolutely hire this truck again in a heartbeat.

Nothing specific, my wife just thought the Sonora steak tacos were ok but nothing special. My 3 mahi mahi tacos tasted great but were cold and I had to heat them in the microwave.

First experience. All was pretty good. Burger was well seasoned, bacon was good. Could have used a bit more of the signature sauce. All in all a good experience

Everything was very good. I had the three tacos, shrimp, pork and chicken. Shrimp and pork were very tasty. The chicken was dry and lacking taste. Overall, nice tacos. Great corn shell, very tasty and fresh.
