Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Portland, ME

Whether you’re packing the Eastern Prom for the Fourth of July fireworks, filling Hadlock Field for a Sea Dogs charity game, or hosting a summer concert at Thompson’s Point, one fact remains: Portlanders expect great food alongside great entertainment. Best Food Trucks makes that happen with turnkey food truck catering for large-scale events all across Portland, ME.

Unlike the old-school tent kitchens that needed extra permits, generators, and hours of set-up, our local food trucks roll in with fully self-contained commercial kitchens. They park, power on, and start serving lobster rolls, hot dogs, falafel, crêpes, and just about anything else your crowd craves—usually in under 30 minutes. That speed keeps lines moving and guests happy, whether you’re feeding 300 at the Maine Marathon finish line or 3,000 at a waterfront festival.

Best Food Trucks will curate a lineup that fits your theme, headcount, and budget. Want comfort-food nostalgia? We’ll send PB&ME with their over-the-top peanut-butter creations. Need quick handheld bites for a beer fest at Industrial Way? Mainely Hotdogs has you covered. Looking to add a touch of Paris to your Old Port block party? Crepe Elizabeth can spin sweet and savory crêpes to order. For plant-based or gluten-free crowds, Falafel Mafia serves Mediterranean bowls that satisfy everyone. And if your guests are here for the seafood, Mobile Musette plates gourmet Gulf of Maine catches that remind people why they love Vacationland.

From food truck scheduling and city permitting to on-site service management, Best Food Trucks handles every detail so you can focus on the music, the runners, or the opening ceremony. Trust the local experts in food truck catering for large-scale events in Portland, ME—we’ll make sure your event tastes as memorable as it looks.

Skip the Line and Soak Up the Event—Portland Style

When you’re rocking out at Thompson’s Point or cheering on finishers at the Peaks to Portland Swim, the last thing anyone wants is to be stuck in a food line that stretches to Baxter Boulevard. Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform keeps the focus on the fun. Attendees simply pull out their phones, choose from your curated fleet of Portland food trucks, and get a text the moment their lobster roll, donut sundae, or vegan shawarma is ready. No guesswork, no crowding—just straight-up Vacationland vibes.

Planning a massive brew fest on Industrial Way? Send out a pre-order link with ticket confirmations so guests can lock in a 5:30 PM pickup before the first pour. Hosting 10,000 fireworks fans on the Eastern Prom? Our high-capacity system processes hundreds of orders per minute, keeping lines short and the green space open for blanket real estate. It’s the perfect pairing of technology and food truck catering for large-scale events in Portland, ME.

Food trucks for large-scale events plus real-time online ordering equals happier guests, smoother traffic flow, and more time to enjoy Casco Bay sunsets—not to mention a higher spend per head for your vendors.

Truck ran 30 mins late on our order and the meatballs tasted like they were previously frozen - they were a weird texture and not flavorful

The order was "on time" very generous amounts, the roll was toasted perfectly.( unexpected) the meat was so tender and tasty..the mac & cheese yummy, and the beans even had a piece of VERY tender bacon in it! DELICIOUS!

My sandwich was tasty! I didn't like that it had two different sizes of bread one substantially smaller. This caused the roast beef on one end to be dried out. It was a great sandwich and the chef was very friendly.

The Mac and cheese was fantastic 10/10 would get again. The peach lemonade is also lovely. They are such wonderful people too!

Plantain! Jerk chicken was fried crispy. Thought the jerk barbecue could have been a little spicier. Still very good

First time buying. The rice & vegetables were perfect! And the yum yum sauce added just the right "kick". The egg rolls were a bit skimpy on filling, but taste was fine.
