Santa Barbara’s laid-back coastal vibe pairs perfectly with the freedom of food trucks. Forget wrestling with pop-up tents on Cabrillo Boulevard or chasing extra permits at the Santa Barbara Bowl—our fully self-contained mobile kitchens roll in, fire up, and serve within minutes. Food truck catering for events in Santa Barbara eliminates long setup times, extra generators, and post-party cleanup headaches.
From sunset concerts at Chase Palm Park and movie nights at the Courthouse Sunken Gardens to UCSB alumni gatherings and oceanside weddings in Montecito, a curated fleet of local trucks keeps guests happy and exploring new flavors. Best Food Trucks partners with home-grown favorites like Tacos Pipeye for sizzling al pastor, Maravilla Latin Cuisine for hearty Latin comfort, the taco pros at Gloria's Gourmet Kitchen, crispy chicken specialists Yummy Bird, and Goleta staple Taqueria Mena. Guests can roam the Funk Zone with a craft beer in one hand and a birria taco in the other—no buffet line required.

Best Food Trucks brings more than fresh flavors to your Santa Barbara event—we bring time back to your guests. Our cutting-edge online ordering system lets fans place an order from their phone while they’re snapping photos of Stearns Wharf or cheering at the Summer Solstice Parade on State Street. When their tri-tip sandwich or vegetable paella is ready, a quick text alert sends them back to the truck—no standing in line, no missing the music.
Planning a concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl, a fundraiser at the Funk Zone wineries, or a company picnic at Elings Park? Drop a custom pre-order link into your invites so attendees can schedule a pickup window before gates even open. Food truck catering for events in Santa Barbara has never been this seamless: fewer queues, more views of the Pacific, and happy guests who stay engaged with the celebration.
Food trucks + online ordering = the best way to let everyone enjoy your Santa Barbara event while still savoring exceptional eats from the Central Coast’s top mobile chefs.

The food was absolutely amazing—the meats were tender and smoky, and every side dish was flavorful. The service team was outstandingly professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring all our guests were served quickly and with a smile. Most importantly, the entire event went off without a single issue. Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse delivered incredible food and zero stress, making them the absolute highlight of our day!

Luis of Senor Wooffle was terrific to work with. He was able to make some menu modifications that we needed. This is the first time we have used a Food Truck and were so pleased. BTW - his root beer floats were fabulous!
