Providence Jamaican Food Truck Catering
Planning a graduation on College Hill, a wedding by the Roger Williams Park Botanical Center, or a company picnic during WaterFire? Spice it up with authentic Jamaican food truck catering in Providence! Best Food Trucks partners with local favorites like Work Hard Eat Good and Lucan's Grill to bring the island’s legendary flavors straight to your Ocean State event.
Picture the aroma of jerk chicken drifting across Downtown, flaky Jamaican patties served hot on the banks of the Providence River, or a tray of peppered shrimp waking up guests at your Federal Hill block party. Providence food lovers crave bold seasonings, and Jamaican cuisine delivers with scotch bonnet heat, fragrant all-spice, and slow-smoked meats that fall off the bone.
Lucan’s Grill fires up family recipes—think perfectly charred jerk chicken, tender oxtail, and spicy festival fritters—while Work Hard Eat Good puts a Caribbean twist on crowd-pleasers like loaded plantain bowls and jerk pork tacos. Both trucks roll right up to your venue, whether that’s a RISD courtyard, a backyard in Elmhurst, or a corporate campus in the Jewelry District.

Loved this food truck, both the food and the crew! They were wonderful, kind and very quick. The price was not too bad for what we got and we'd love to host with them again!

Their time management could be worked on, and when ordering it doesn't allow you to choose mild, medium or hot like it says so they just give you hot

the service was excellent! This is our first time hiring a food truck from BTF and it was super last minute. I submitted my request on Friday before Memorial Day, for a Memorial Day Luncheon and BTF did not fail us. Our truck was here one hour before event started and was here until all the food we paid for was served. Will definitely use you guys again.

NFM says that was the best Philly sandwich of all the trucks that come to Wright farms. I should have ordered 2 (more) for later. Raise your price and stay in business. Please come back again. Friend NFM

My order wasn't ready despite getting the ready for pickup and it then started raining on me but they still went out there way to make up for it and bring it to me as I was hiding for cover. Thank you so much!!!

I was late picking up food because I got an unexpected work call I had to take. They offered to remake my sandwich when I picked it up. I declined and the sandwich was still very delicious.
