Food Truck Catering for Des Moines Neighborhood Events
Whether you’re planning a Beaverdale Porch Party, a Drake Neighborhood clean-up, or a movie night in Sherman Hill, you want to concentrate on the fun—not fret about feeding everyone. Best Food Trucks is Des Moines’ go-to partner for neighborhood food truck catering. We handle permits, scheduling, and crowd-pleasing menus so you can focus on music playlists, yard games, and connecting with your guests.
From laid-back block parties along Ingersoll Avenue to large community gatherings at Gray’s Lake Park, our team brings the same Midwestern hospitality your neighbors expect: punctual service, fresh ingredients, and portions big enough for an Iowa appetite. No more chasing down private chefs who cancel last minute or juggling multiple vendors who can’t find parking on Grand Avenue. One call to Best Food Trucks secures everything—food, staffing, and our easy mobile ordering system that keeps the line moving faster than an I-235 commute on a Sunday morning.
We’re home to some of the metro’s favorite mobile kitchens, including:
- Tacos Degollado – Authentic Mexican street tacos that turn any cul-de-sac into a fiesta.
- Tacos La Barca D.C. – Birria and carne asada served with homemade salsas that heat up chilly Iowa evenings.
- Ninas Tacos – Family recipes perfected for the East Village lunch crowd and your backyard bash alike.
- Taqueria La Esperanza – Flavor-packed tortas and tacos that pair perfectly with a cold local brew from Confluence.
- Veggie Thumper – Plant-based comfort food so good even die-hard pork tenderloin fans come back for seconds.

Guests simply pull out their phones, choose their favorite truck—whether it’s birria from Tacos La Barca D.C. or a Veggie Thumper soul bowl—and get a text the second their food is ready.
Planning ahead? Drop our pre-order link into your neighborhood Facebook group or Nextdoor thread so folks can lock in a pickup time before, during, or after the block party. More time for bags tournaments, catching up on Hawkeye highlights, and watching the sun set over the Des Moines River—zero time standing in line.

The truck got there early and set up for the party without issue. They made excellent food, and we're super helpful. Everyone enjoyed the food and was happy to have a choice in what they wanted to eat. It made the party so much more fun to show everyone we had a food truck ready to serve food for the whole time the party was going on. 10/10 would rent again.

As a person who generally does not leave reviews, I just have to say how amazing Mac's Food Truck was. They were early to set up, super helpful, extremely patient and insanely fast in preparing each meal. They were so nice and everyone at our event was raving about the food!!! Senior executives even took the time out to comment and compliment the service. Everyone was so happy! Thank you. I would a trillion % use them and highly recommend them in the future!!!
