Marathon catering

Skip the Line and Keep the Party Moving in Detroit!

At a Detroit Lions watch party outside Ford Field or a summer concert at the Aretha, nobody wants to miss the action because they’re stuck in a food line. That’s why Best Food Trucks pairs Detroit’s best food truck catering for large-scale events with a slick online ordering system built for speed.

Guests simply pull out their phone, browse every truck’s live menu, and tap to order—no more shuffling through a slow-moving queue on Woodward. When the food is ready, they’ll get a text faster than you can say “Go Wings!” and pick up at a dedicated express window. The result: more time enjoying the music, cars, or game, and less time standing around.

Planning ahead? Send a pre-order link so attendees can reserve their favorite Mac-in-the-D or coney taco for a specific pickup time before the gates even open. Our platform was engineered to handle the high-volume rush that comes with festivals like Movement and the Jazz Fest, so every transaction runs as smooth as a Motown groove.

Food truck catering for large-scale events in Detroit plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering equals happy crowds, shorter lines, and an unforgettable 313 experience. Let’s keep your event focused on what matters—great entertainment and even better eats.

The team with Alabama Ali’s was amazing! They were on time, friendly and added a wonderful touch to our event! Also, the food was absolutely delicious!

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.

The seasoning of the Shrimps, the tenderness of the tenders. The crispness of the fries. Just would've wanted more seasoning on the fries. Delicious

The brisket tacos were phenomenal. The sandwiches were also very good, a little saucier than my preference but I like little to no sauce, that's not a reflection of you guys, but it is all is very delicious.

please bring this one back. All of the sandwiches were great even the tater tots were soft in the middle and crispy on the outside perfect.

Make pictures more appealing- that was a large problem last night. You need a photographer or something to make those pictures were artistic . The pictures of the Philly cheesesteak do not look good and the burgers all look wilted. The taste of the food is not translating in the pictures. Your onion rings are delicious. Chicken fingers are average. You need a honey mustard dipping sauce. Cheeseburger was very good - add a pickle spear on the side. Fries were average Also add more choices than just Coke - and maybe you have them, but it doesn't show up on line.
