Food Truck Catering for Parties in Des Moines
Whether you’re throwing a backyard birthday in Beaverdale, a graduation open-house near Drake University, or a lakeside celebration at Gray’s Lake, one truth never changes—great food makes the party. Instead of juggling chafing dishes or cramming a private chef into your kitchen, let a food truck roll up and handle the cooking. Best Food Trucks is Des Moines’ go-to platform for party food truck catering, connecting you with professional mobile chefs who arrive with their own sparkling kitchen on wheels. That means zero cleanup for you and more elbow room for guests to mingle, dance, and cheer on the Cyclones or Hawkeyes without tripping over buffet tables.
Our local lineup covers every flavor craving in the 515. Treat the crowd to street-style tacos from Tacos Degollado, sizzling al pastor from Tacos La Barca D.C., or a salsa-laden feast from Ninas Tacos and Taqueria La Esperanza. Want a plant-powered option for your East Village friends? Veggie Thumper stacks plates high with vibrant vegan comfort food that even carnivores rave about.
Booking is simple: choose a truck, set your headcount, and we’ll park culinary happiness right at your curb—no permits, propane, or power hookups for you to puzzle over. From the first order to the final napkin, Best Food Trucks handles logistics so you can focus on selfies with the Des Moines skyline in the background. Make your next celebration unforgettable with food truck catering for parties in Des Moines.
Skip the Line and Soak Up Your Des Moines Party!
Best Food Trucks brings the Iowa nice right to your phone with our cutting-edge online ordering system. Instead of queuing on the driveway or clogging the sidewalk like it’s a Saturday night on Court Avenue, your guests can kick back, tap in their order from any smartphone, and get a text the moment their meal is hot and ready. No lines, no guesswork—just more time to clink glasses, play bags, or snap selfies with the downtown skyline.
Planning ahead? Send out a pre-order link so friends can choose a precise pickup window—before, during, or after the party starts. It’s perfect for graduation crowds near Drake, tailgate crews gearing up for a Cyclones–Hawkeyes showdown, or family reunions at Gray’s Lake. Food truck catering for parties in Des Moines has never been this smooth: exceptional eats, hassle-free service, and zero extra work for you.

Hire this truck for your event! I hired them with about two weeks notice for my 50th birthday party, and I’m so glad I did! Donnell was fantastic to work with in terms of planning, and the food was *all* amazing—my guests could not stop raving. They worked with me to do small portions of more items so that we could have a variety… I chose jerk chicken, salmon, wings, and chicken tenders as entrees, and sides included Rasta Pasta, rice and peas, cabbage, and Yummy Mac. Everything about the entire experience was highly organized and super friendly, including impeccable service on the night of the event! Yummy food, and fantastic friendly service-you can’t go wrong! 😃
