Ice Cream Food Truck Catering in Nashville

There’s no better way to cool down after a stroll through Centennial Park or a hot afternoon cheering on the Titans than with a swirl of hand-crafted ice cream. Best Food Trucks brings the very best ice cream catering to Nashville, connecting you with local dessert pros who can park right outside your office on Music Row, your wedding venue in Franklin, or your backyard in East Nashville.

Our roster of Nashville food trucks can turn any occasion into a sweet celebration. Pair a custom ice-cream sundae bar with Paris-style crepes from Gypsy Crepe Company, or follow up a pulled-pork slider with a signature cupcake from The Cupcake Collection (Joy). Looking for true Southern comfort? Add chicken-and-waffle cones from Southern Spoon before diving into your scoops.

If your crowd craves more than ice cream, our dessert specialists have you covered. Treat guests to cheesecake milkshakes from The Baking Room Inc. or a warm seasonal cobbler à la mode courtesy of The Tennessee Cobbler Co. – Mobile. Everything is prepared fresh on the truck and served fast, so your party keeps rolling like a classic country riff.

Nashville trusts Best Food Trucks for flawless ice-cream catering at CMA Fest parties, Vanderbilt graduations, neighborhood block concerts, and corporate happy hours downtown. Our booking team handles all the logistics—permits, parking, and power—so you can focus on picking flavors and toppings.

Food was ready about 20 minutes before I requested it, so it sat for a long time before I was able to pick it up. Also, the guacamole is a little strong on the lime.

Pleasant transaction - good was ready and easy to pick up- the wrap was amazing full of flavor and I will have this again and again. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience

I probably would not have gotten the mac and cheese bites if i knew there would be thyme in them. That's on me though, and now I know for next time. Really well-seasoned burger and I liked the normal mac that was on it!

Be attentive to ordering apps, so that food is ready in a fair amount of time. And, have To-Go packaging ready for safe transport.

The flavors in the mac and cheese really pop. The chicken in it is good. The heat is correctly advertised and enjoyable.

The food was delicious. For the price it would have been nice to have an egg roll in the plate. But it was really good.

How does food truck catering work with Best Food Trucks?
With Best Food Trucks, you choose the budget for your event and provide details like, time, date, how many diners and what type of party you're throwing. Best Food Trucks will send out your request to regional food trucks who will submit a proposal based on your budget.
How do we choose the budget for our food truck event?
You choose the budget (within our parameters) and we'll find proposals that match that budget. Every proposal we send you will be for your submitted budget.
