North New Jersey School & Campus Food Truck Catering
From Hoboken’s bustling waterfront to the tree-lined quads of Montclair State, North Jersey schools know that nothing gets hungry students moving like a lineup of local food trucks. Best Food Trucks brings the area’s favorite mobile kitchens straight to your campus, making lunch periods, pep rallies, and faculty in-service days easier (and tastier) than ever.
Whether your PTA in Paramus is planning Spirit Week or Rutgers–Newark needs a late-night study session refuel, our team handles every detail—permits, parking, and, most importantly, the right menus for your crowd. Using our streamlined online ordering system, Red Hawk undergrads can tap in their order between classes, grab it by the Bell Tower, and be back on the Garden State Parkway before the traffic builds.
We’ve curated a roster of North Jersey favorites so you can mix and match cuisines without the cafeteria headache:
- Latin Bites – A fleet of six Cuban & Puerto Rican trucks rolling up from Manalapan to Jersey City with ropa vieja, maduros, and pastelillos that make lunch feel like a Pitbull soundtrack.
- Sabs District – Crowd-pleasing comfort food perfect for Friday night football in Fair Lawn.
- Cal's Confectons – Dessert specialists serving funnel-cake fries and over-the-top milkshakes that will light up your Instagram stories faster than the MetLife Stadium jumbotron.
- CHIC Gourmet Empanadas – Hand-pressed Latin empanadas loaded with Jersey-fresh ingredients—ideal for gluten-free and vegetarian options.
- Latin Bites SAZON 4 – Sister truck to Latin Bites, bringing even more Caribbean flair to Essex and Bergen County campuses.
Dietary restrictions? No problem. From nut-free classrooms in Clifton to vegan student groups at Seton Hall, we match you with vendors who understand and respect every guideline.
Skip the clipboards and endless email chains—let Best Food Trucks handle scheduling, vendor vetting, and real-time order tracking. All you have to do is watch your students and staff enjoy the best food truck catering for schools in North New Jersey. Book today and turn your next campus event into the meal everyone in the 201, 973, and 551 will be talking about!
Matt,
Your food truck catering crew crushed it for us this semester. From Move-In Day on the Montclair State quad to the late-night study break you ran at our Newark campus, every truck showed up early, served fast, and kept our Red Hawks happy. Thanks for being North Jersey’s most reliable partner for school events!

Aloha Friday worked out great for us. It was easy for them to serve our 350 middle schoolers in less than 2 hours. We offered them 3 choices and the kids loved the Spam Musubi, Chicken Teriyaki and Spicy Tuna Bowl. I would definitely work with them again! The communication with using Best Food Truck to get to them was a little spotty but it all worked out in the end.
