Food Truck Catering for Parties in New York
Throwing a party in New York City—whether it’s a rooftop bash in Williamsburg, a baby shower in Astoria, or a birthday picnic in Central Park—always comes with limited space and sky-high expectations. Cooking for a crowd in a tiny Manhattan kitchen is stressful, and traditional caterers often take over whatever square footage you have left. Skip the headache and book food truck catering for parties in New York instead. Best Food Trucks brings the city’s best mobile kitchens straight to your curb, courtyard, or company parking lot, so you can enjoy five-star food without losing a single square foot of party space.
Our network features iconic local favorites that every New Yorker will recognize:
- Yankee Doodle Dandy's dishes out all-American comfort food—think crispy chicken tenders and towering sandwiches worthy of a Times Square billboard.
- Craving a classic slice? Jiannetto's Pizza rolls up with award-winning grandma-style Sicilian squares that would make Little Italy proud.
- If smash-style burgers are more your vibe, Smash Burger serves juicy Angus patties with melted cheddar and that addictive Smash sauce—perfect fuel for a late-night SoHo dance party.
- Add an international twist with MAKINA Cafe, whose Ethiopian-Eritrean platters of injera and spicy sambusas turn any Brooklyn backyard into a global food fest.
- Finish strong with sweet soft-serve from the legendary Carvel Ice Cream Truck, a nostalgia-packed crowd-pleaser for kids and grown-ups alike.
Best Food Trucks handles all the logistics—permits, parking, and point-of-sale—so you can focus on enjoying your party in true New York fashion. No pots to scrub, no trash bags full of takeout containers, just top-rated food truck catering for parties delivered right to your borough. Book now and give your guests the ultimate Big Apple dining experience on wheels!
Skip the line and keep the New York party poppin’!
In a city where even the corner bodega takes Apple Pay, nobody wants to queue up outside a food truck while the DJ is spinning “Empire State of Mind.” Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform lets your guests claim their lunch or late-night munch straight from their phones—whether they’re snapping skyline selfies on a Dumbo rooftop or chasing toddlers around a Staten Island backyard. Tap, pay, party: once the order’s in, our system sends a text the moment their food is hot and ready, so the only lines they’re worrying about are on the subway map.
Hosting a tight itinerary? Drop a pre-order link in the group chat and let the crew pick exact pickup windows before the first guests ring the Bell apartment buzzer. No guesswork, no paper tickets, no shouting names over a Midtown traffic din—just seamless food truck catering for parties in New York, served right on schedule.
The result: you stay out of the weeds, your guests stay in the moment, and the party energy stays sky-high from Brooklyn Bridge sunset to last call in Hell’s Kitchen. Hassle-free, crowd-pleasing, and hyper-New York—exactly how food truck catering should be.

Food was amazing! Owners and staff really have a heart for service. All my guests raved about every item on the menu. Bananas Foster Plaintains were excellent and something no one had ever had.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.
