Food Truck Catering for Events in Des Moines
From the buzz of the Downtown Farmers’ Market to tailgates outside Principal Park, Des Moines knows how to throw a party—and great parties need great food. Modern food truck catering brings a full-service kitchen right to your venue, with no tents, generators, or long setup times to slow you down. When you rent food trucks for events in Des Moines, you’re getting a turnkey dining solution that keeps permits simple and the crowds happy.
Best Food Trucks partners with some of the most popular local vendors, giving your guests the kind of variety you normally only find along Ingersoll Avenue at lunchtime. Craving authentic Mexican street eats? Book Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, or Taqueria La Esperanza and watch the line form for fresh-pressed tortillas and sizzling al pastor. Want a plant-based menu that still packs Iowa-sized flavor? Invite Veggie Thumper and serve bowls that even die-hard pork-tenderloin fans will rave about.
Music festivals at Water Works Park, outdoor movie nights in Pappajohn Sculpture Park, corporate picnics in Gray’s Lake—no matter the event, Des Moines food truck catering scales to fit. Our online scheduling makes it easy to secure trucks, set menus, and handle payments, so you can focus on booking the band or setting up the inflatable corn stalks. Ready to elevate your next gathering? Let Best Food Trucks bring Des Moines’ favorite mobile kitchens straight to your event.
Skip the line and savor more of your Des Moines event!
Anyone who’s ever waited 30 minutes for a pork chop on a stick at the Iowa State Fair knows lines can kill the vibe. Best Food Trucks fixes that problem with a seamless online ordering system built for Des Moines crowds. Guests simply scan a QR code, choose their meal on their phone, then stroll back to the Silent Disco or the bags tournament until a text says “Order up!”
Pre-ordering makes things even easier. Send attendees a custom link before the first song kicks off at Water Works Park or before the gates open at Principal Park; they pick a guaranteed pickup time and stroll right past the queue. Food truck catering with online ordering is the fastest way to keep your Des Moines event focused on fun while still dishing out the city’s best street eats.

The food was absolutely amazing—the meats were tender and smoky, and every side dish was flavorful. The service team was outstandingly professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring all our guests were served quickly and with a smile. Most importantly, the entire event went off without a single issue. Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse delivered incredible food and zero stress, making them the absolute highlight of our day!

Luis of Senor Wooffle was terrific to work with. He was able to make some menu modifications that we needed. This is the first time we have used a Food Truck and were so pleased. BTW - his root beer floats were fabulous!
