Chattanooga’s Favorite American Comfort Food Truck Catering
Nothing chases away hunger like warm, nostalgic eats, and here in Chattanooga we take our comfort food as seriously as we take our views from Lookout Mountain. Imagine biting into creamy, just-baked mac & cheese or golden chicken-and-waffles drizzled with Tennessee hot honey—served straight from a food-truck window instead of a tired chafing dish. That’s the magic of booking American comfort food truck catering with Best Food Trucks.
Our local lineup features home-grown heroes such as The Brunchery, rolling out brunch classics that turn any corporate lunch into a Sunday Funday, and A Wheely Good Food Truck, famous for belly-filling meat-and-three plates and decadent layered sundaes perfect for a stroll along the Riverwalk. Need hearty handhelds for a tailgate outside Finley Stadium? Greg's Sandwich Works has you covered with sandwiches, fresh lemonade, and a zero-cancellation record that’s as solid as the Walnut Street Bridge.
You’ll also spot Chattanooga staples like Chatter Box Cafe and the Windy-City-inspired Windy City Eatz, each dishing out the stick-to-your-ribs classics locals crave. Best of all, our industry-leading ordering system means no standing in lines under that hot Tennessee sun; guests get a text the moment their made-to-order meal is ready, leaving them more time to catch up with friends in Coolidge Park or snap photos by the Chattanooga Choo Choo.
From family reunions on the North Shore to downtown office parties, Best Food Trucks delivers the American Comfort food truck catering Chattanooga trusts. Book today and taste why the Scenic City calls us first when comfort is on the menu.
How Best Food Trucks Strengthens Chattanooga’s Small-Business Scene
Booking American comfort food truck catering through Best Food Trucks isn’t just a hit with guests—it’s a direct investment in Chattanooga’s homegrown economy. Nearly every truck in our Scenic City roster is a family-run or solo-owner operation headquartered right here in neighborhoods like St. Elmo, Northshore, and Hixson. When you hire a mac-and-cheese slinging rig for your event, your dollars stay local, helping entrepreneurs pay staff, rent commercial kitchens, and keep their rigs rolling down Market Street.
Food trucks are also a greener alternative to traditional buffet catering. Smaller footprints mean lower energy use, and on-board kitchens cut down on disposable serving pans and plastic. Many Chattanooga trucks even partner with area farms for ingredients and compost their food scraps at the Chattanooga Green—reducing waste while dishing out fried chicken, smoky BBQ sliders, and biscuits that taste like Grandma’s Orchard Knob kitchen.
So next time you Google “American comfort food trucks near me,” skip the chain restaurants and let Best Food Trucks match you with a socially responsible, Chattanooga-proud vendor. You’ll get crave-worthy eats, a lighter environmental impact, and the satisfaction of fueling the small businesses that make our river city shine.

Had the buffalo lemon pepper tenders with fries. Fries were spot on. Hot and fresh. Seasoned nicely. Tenders were not hot. A little heavy on the batter and needed more sauce and lemon pepper. Flavor was fantastic. Just needed a bit more and to be hot and fresh.

The fries were perfect! Very crispy and delicious. The chicken was tasty but a bit tough. There were so many orders - both online and walk-up - that they may have been a bit overwhelmed.
