Food Truck Catering for Fundraisers in Santa Barbara
Whether you’re rallying the community for a beach clean-up at East Beach, hosting a silent auction on State Street, or planning a school benefit up in Goleta, your cause deserves your full attention—not hours spent chasing down caterers. Best Food Trucks makes Santa Barbara food truck catering for fundraisers effortless, so you can concentrate on inspiring donors and volunteers.
Our experienced team handles every detail—from permitting in the Funk Zone to scheduling load-in at the Santa Barbara Bowl—while our real-time digital ordering platform keeps lines short and guests happy. No more worrying about no-show private chefs or bland buffets; you’ll get punctual service, transparent pricing, and rave-worthy menus designed to boost attendance and donations.
Want authentic local flavor to match Santa Barbara’s laid-back vibe? Choose crowd-pleasing trucks like Tacos Pipeye for killer carne asada, Maravilla Latin Cuisine for savory empanadas, Gloria's Gourmet Kitchen for street-style tacos, or Yummy Bird for crispy fried-chicken sliders that disappear faster than a sunset over Stearns Wharf. Best Food Trucks delivers the perfect mix of flavors and efficiency, turning your next Santa Barbara fundraiser into a delicious success story.
Skip the line—keep your Santa Barbara fundraiser front and center
At a busy charity gala in the Rose Garden by the Santa Barbara Mission or a surf-clinic fundraiser at Leadbetter Beach, every minute should be spent mingling with donors—not standing in a food line. Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system lets guests grab their phones, choose their favorite truck, and get a text the moment their tri-tip taco or açai bowl is ready. No queues, no confusion—just more time to raise money (and a glass) for your Santa Barbara cause.
Want to keep that paddle-raise energy high? Send a pre-order link with your invitation so supporters can schedule a convenient pick-up time before the first auction item even hits the stage at the Lobero Theatre. Food trucks plus real-time ordering is the smartest way to power any Santa Barbara fundraiser: streamlined service, stellar local flavors, and zero extra work for your planning committee.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

Their Mexican food is great. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the steak sliders were slightly inconsistent, but great tasting.

Generous portions, well seasoned (not over seasoned), very courteous service under time pressure & walk-up customers, as well as unexpected under staffing. Thank you April's Kitchen. At our house, you're a "do again". ☺️

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard
