Food Truck Catering for Des Moines Schools
From Pep Rally Fridays at East High to field-trip sendoffs at Greenwood Elementary, no city does school spirit quite like Des Moines—and nothing fuels that spirit better than a lineup of local food trucks. Best Food Trucks pairs the energy of Central Iowa’s campuses with mouth-watering mobile kitchens, making us the top choice for food truck catering for schools in Des Moines. Whether you’re feeding hungry Bulldogs at Drake University or treating faculty at Hoover High, we handle every detail from permitting to online ordering.
Our industry-leading preorder system lets students and staff skip the line and grab their meals between classes, keeping hallways clear and schedules on track. We partner with an eclectic roster of DSM favorites, including crowd-pleasers like El Taco Guapo, Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, and Taqueria La Esperanza. From Taco Tuesday in the Roosevelt parking lot to post-game celebrations at Valley Stadium, each truck brings authentic Mexican flavor that makes cafeteria pizza a distant memory.
Best Food Trucks understands that every campus has unique dietary needs—from gluten-free options for students at Des Moines Public Schools to vegetarian choices for the Iowa STEM Council meeting. Our curated vendor list ensures you get the right mix of menus without the administrative headache. Tell us the date, the bell schedule, and the headcount—we’ll handle the rest so you can focus on creating an unforgettable event.
