Food Truck Catering for Chicago Offices

Skip the bland boxed lunches and bring the vibrant flavors of Chicago’s food truck scene straight to your workplace. Best Food Trucks makes it simple to schedule on-site, made-to-order meals that keep your team in the building and buzzing with Windy City energy. No more lukewarm trays or employees dashing down to Randolph Street for something decent—our food truck catering for Chicago offices rolls a full-service kitchen right up to your loading dock, plaza, or parking lot.

Whether your headquarters overlooks the Chicago River in the Loop, your tech hub is tucked inside Fulton Market, or your call center is out near O’Hare, our platform lets you rotate multiple trucks so every palate is covered. Craving smoky barbecue? Book Soul & Smoke for a brisket-packed lunch and watch productivity rise faster than the Willis Tower. Need a meat-free Monday hit? La Comodita will park outside with Sicilian arancini and fresh caprese panini that taste like a Little Italy block party.

From the gourmet sandwiches of The Fat Shallot (a Merchandise Mart favorite) to the Venezuelan-inspired arepas at La Cocinita Chicago, our curated roster covers every craving. Looking for a handheld snack that won’t slow down your afternoon meeting? 5411 Empanadas can crank out dozens of piping-hot pockets faster than the Brown Line zips past Quincy.

Using our industry-leading logistics system, you can view real-time calendars, lock in trucks with a click, and let our catering specialists handle permits, parking, and on-site service. We provide 24/7 support before, during, and after each event—so the only thing your employees have to worry about is which Chicago food truck delicacy to try next.

Fueling Chicago’s Small Businesses

Every time your office books food truck catering in Chicago, you’re doing more than feeding the team—you’re keeping the city’s entrepreneurial spirit alive. Most of the trucks that pull up outside your River North tower or South Loop warehouse are run by solo chefs, husband-and-wife crews, or second-generation restaurateurs who perfected their recipes at neighborhood festivals like Taste of Chicago and Pilsen’s Fiesta del Sol. Your lunch order helps them pay rent on a shared kitchen in Avondale, hire an extra prep cook from Belmont-Cragin, and source produce from Green City Market vendors. That’s money staying right here in the 312.

Choosing a Chicago food truck for office catering is also a win for the planet. Because the kitchen is on wheels, trucks draw far less power than a banquet hall’s steam tables, and most operators have already swapped to energy-efficient equipment thanks to ComEd rebates. Reusable serving baskets and compostable cutlery mean you won’t be sending mountains of plastic to the landfill after your quarterly all-hands in the West Loop.

So the next time you fire up Google for “corporate catering near me,” skip the chain restaurants. Let Best Food Trucks roll in a locally owned kitchen, shrink your carbon footprint, and give your staff a taste of Chicago that’s as authentic as a summer night at Wrigley. Hit us up today—your office, our trucks, one deliciously responsible decision.
