Des Moines Food Truck Catering for Fundraisers
From charity 5Ks along Gray’s Lake to silent-auction galas in the East Village, Des Moines knows how to give back. Let Best Food Trucks keep your donors smiling—and your planning stress-free—by bringing the city’s best mobile kitchens straight to your fundraiser. We handle every detail, so you can focus on boosting the thermometer instead of babysitting the buffet line.
No more scrambling for rental chafers, worrying about no-show caterers, or fielding complaints about lukewarm food. Our local fleet arrives on time, cooks fresh to order, and uses our digital ordering system to keep lines moving faster than the DART through Downtown. Whether you’re set up at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Principal Park, or the Drake University quad, we’ll park, serve, and clean up without a hitch.
Want flavors that fire up generosity? Try street-style tacos piled high at Tacos Degollado, sizzling al pastor from Tacos La Barca D.C., or hand-pressed tortillas at Ninas Tacos. Need vegan and vegetarian options for your South Side supporters? Veggie Thumper dishes plant-powered plates that even carnivores crave. And for authentic Central-Mexican flavor that transports your guests far beyond Polk County, book Taqueria La Esperanza.
Best Food Trucks is the Des Moines leader in fundraiser food truck catering. Our single-point booking, transparent pricing, and rave online reviews mean zero surprises—except how easy it is. Leave the logistics, permits, and crowd control to us, and spend your valuable time engaging donors and champions of your cause.
Ready to turn great food into greater giving? Contact Best Food Trucks today and see how effortless (and delicious) your next Des Moines fundraiser can be.
Skip the line—keep the giving rolling in Des Moines!
Nothing kills the buzz of a charity auction or “Paddles Up” moment faster than a 30-person food line. That’s why every Best Food Trucks booking in Des Moines comes with our friction-free online ordering system. Your guests tap in their order on a smartphone, stroll back to the silent-auction tables, and receive a text the moment their tenderloin slider or vegan grain bowl is ready. No lines, no FOMO, and no missed bids for that Iowa Cubs memorabilia.
Hosting the annual Gray’s Lake Fun Run? Email a pre-order link so racers can lock in a breakfast burrito for a designated pickup time as soon as they cross the finish line. Planning a Drake University Dance Marathon or a charity night at Jasper Winery? Schedule staggered pickup windows to keep crowds dispersed and donations flowing.
Food trucks plus Best Food Trucks’ digital ordering means your Des Moines fundraiser stays focused on the mission while guests enjoy hot, fresh, locally loved eats—without you lifting a finger. Less time waiting, more time giving.

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.

Food was pretty good. People seemed to like the BBQ nachos. The wait time was a little long.

Michael was fantastic! He was on time, his set up was easy and clean, and he was hilarious (all our guests loved him!). The food was great and there were plenty of choices, so something for everyone's taste (I had guests who were both gluten and dairy free, so this was great!). The portion sizes were also very generous, no one left hungry! Highly recommend!
