Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Traverse City

Whether you’re filling the Open Space during the National Cherry Festival, packing fans into Turtle Creek Stadium, or setting up a concert at Interlochen, one thing will make your Traverse City event unforgettable—stellar food. Modern food trucks deliver exactly that. Unlike the old-school tent kitchens that dominated Front Street fairs decades ago, today’s food trucks roll in with fully contained commercial kitchens, eliminating the headache of extra permits, generators, and marathon setup times.

Best Food Trucks partners with the area’s most popular rolling restaurants to create a vibrant “Up North” dining scene right on your event grounds. From gourmet plates to handheld comfort food, our network gives guests more choices—and shorter lines—than any traditional caterer can match. Looking for local flavor? Invite Lost Village Pierogi: “The Polished Cuban Grill” to serve authentic Polish pierogi and Cubano sandwiches, or spice things up with street-style tacos from King Wubbz. Our team will coordinate schedules, insurance, and health-department compliance so you can focus on the music, the fireworks, or the big game.

No crowd is too large for our Traverse City food truck catering service. We routinely feed thousands at the Traverse City Film Festival, Northwestern Michigan College graduations, and corporate retreats along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Best Food Trucks analyzes foot traffic, menu mix, and service speed to determine the perfect number of trucks and POS systems for your venue, ensuring that every guest is served hot, fresh food in minutes.

Skip the Line and Soak Up the Traverse City Vibes

Nothing ruins a National Cherry Festival concert or a Traverse City Pit Spitters double-header faster than standing in a 30-minute food line. Best Food Trucks solves that problem with our Traverse City–ready online ordering system. Guests pull out their phones, browse menus from every truck on site—whether that’s artisan whitefish tacos or warm cherry-apple doughnuts—and tap to order in seconds.

When the food is hot, a text alert guides them straight to the pickup window on Union Street or the outfield concourse at Turtle Creek Stadium. No lines, no guessing, just more time for air shows over West Grand Traverse Bay and sing-alongs at Interlochen.

Hosting an extra-large crowd? Send our pre-order link with your ticket confirmation so attendees can lock in a pickup time before they even hit M-72. Our platform was engineered for high-frequency ordering, meaning it can handle thousands of simultaneous transactions during fireworks night without breaking a sweat.

For large-scale event catering in Traverse City, food trucks plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering equals happier guests, smoother traffic flow, and rave reviews long after the last cherry pit has been spit.

We did a pre order online and didn't know the burgers came with fries - not an issue just something that would be nice to know because we ordered additional fries then

Freshness. Crispy oinion rings and fries. Burgers were perfectly built. Only critique would be on the pricey side.

Food is 10/10. I look forward to ordering every time it's by the office. The staff working the truck are so kind too.

The crispy crunchy bread. Also like that it doesn't come with a side because the sandwich is plenty by itself.

When we ordered in September, it was awesome! This time, there were 4 misshapen ribs (one huge, 2 medium, one bite size). The sausage also tasted overcooked and was sliced into small pieces (nothing like the last time). The is was the first time that we had food requested at the start of the shift, and not at 7:00 PM, and it seemed as if this was leftover from a prior shift and 'dumped' on us. Was still tasty with the sauce, but disappointed in this trip (and we raved about Logan's to many friends.....)

The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.

Food was great! It was made exactly how I wanted. I had loaded steak fries without lettuce. Food was nice and hot and flavorful. The staff was very nice thoughtful and attentive. I will definitely be ordering from this business again and leaving a nice tip . Thank you for the great food

We ordered the Chili Chicken Pizza, Pepperoni Pizza, and an order of wings. Everything was delicious

The Buffalo Chicken Pizza was perfect and the Pepperoni with Bell Pepper was good. I personally had a problem with my veggie pizza, but it is really my fault because I guess the veggie pizza comes with Truffle Oil on it and either I didn't see that or I don't like Truffle Oil. So really the truck gets a 5.
