Let Guests Skip the Line and Keep Your Des Moines Fundraiser Front-and-Center
Nothing kills the energy of a silent auction at the Science Center of Iowa—or a pie-in-the-face challenge outside Principal Park—like a 40-person food line. Best Food Trucks’ proprietary online ordering system frees your supporters to bid, mingle, and donate without ever standing around for nachos. Attendees simply scan a QR code, order from their phones, then get a text message when their pork tenderloin sandwich or vegan mac is ready for pickup.
Hosting a charity pickleball tournament in West Des Moines or a “Fill the Backpack” drive at Valley Junction? Send out our pre-order link in advance so guests can reserve a precise pickup time before the first serve or the opening remarks. No crowding, no confusion—just hot, chef-crafted meals arriving exactly when Des Moines donors expect them.
Pair central Iowa’s favorite food trucks with our digital ordering platform and you’ll keep the spotlight on your cause, not the concession line. Fundraiser catering in Des Moines has never been this easy, this fast, or this delicious.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

Their Mexican food is great. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the steak sliders were slightly inconsistent, but great tasting.

Lupita's Tacos were incredible - I've received positive feedback from attendees! The food was great! I really appreciated the pre-packaging, it made everything go by so smoothly and the line was never too long. And communication up to the event was great. My one suggestion would be to label the pre-packaging so people know what type of meat is inside the burritos/tacos, instead of having to open each container. But other than that, amazing! Will definitely keep them in mind for future events :)

Well, my husband and I ordered the Italian beef sandwich and it was phenomenal. The crunch on that bread was amazing. Probably the best sandwich I've ever had on Italian beef as a matter of fact, it was the best sandwich ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
