Let Your Donors Mingle—Not Wait in Line
At a Des Moines fundraiser every minute matters, whether you’re rallying pledges for the Iowa Homeless Youth Centers or auctioning off a signed Caitlin Clark jersey. Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform lets guests place their order from their seat—be it a banquet chair at the Science Center of Iowa or a picnic blanket at Riverview Park—and receive a text the moment their meal is ready. No winding queues, no missed speeches, just happy supporters with full bellies.
Want to build excitement before anyone even parks in the East Village ramp? Send a pre-order link with your event invitation so attendees can choose a pickup window that fits between the raffle and the live band. On event day, our system staggers preparation times to keep truck kitchens humming and donation jars filling. It’s the easiest way to pair Des Moines’ best food trucks with friction-free fundraising—more networking, more bidding, and absolutely zero extra work for your volunteer team.

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.
