Food Truck Catering for Fundraisers in Gainesville, FL
Planning a charity 5-K around Depot Park, a silent auction in Haile Plantation, or a booster event for the Gator Nation at UF’s Ben Hill Griffin Stadium Club? Wherever your Gainesville fundraiser is happening, Best Food Trucks makes feeding your crowd effortless. Instead of juggling multiple caterers or begging volunteers to work the grill, let our local fleet roll up, fire up, and serve up the flavors Gainesville loves.
Our team handles every detail—from permitting at the City of Gainesville Special Events Office to setting up our cashless ordering app—so you can focus on raising money, not managing menus. Guests order right from their phones, skip the line, and get hot, restaurant-quality meals in minutes. No long buffet tables, no cold pizza, no stress.
Taste the Best of Gainesville’s Food Truck Scene
When you partner with Best Food Trucks, you tap into Alachua County’s most popular mobile kitchens:
- Blueline Q – Slow-smoked barbecue ribs, pulled pork, and brisket that compete with any tailgate on University Avenue.
- Rancho Luna Food Truck – American comfort classics like loaded burgers and crispy fries—perfect for hungry donors after the paddle raise.
- Tommyknockers Mobile Kitchen – Southern comfort staples: fried chicken sandwiches, collard greens, and peach cobbler that tastes like grandma’s kitchen in Micanopy.
- A – Authentic African flavors featuring jollof rice, suya kebabs, and plantains that bring a global flair to Midtown fundraisers.
- Impact Island Cafe Food Truck – Caribbean jerk chicken, coconut rice, and tropical smoothies that turn your philanthropy party into a Gainesville beach day—no coast required.
Each truck arrives self-contained with its own kitchen, power, and friendly crew. You’ll avoid the headaches of rental equipment, setup fees, and late-arriving private chefs. Plus, our real-time sales reports make it easy to track revenue splits for percentage-back nights and giveback programs.

Let Guests Skip the Line and Keep Their Eyes on Your Gainesville Fundraiser
Whether you’re hosting a dance-a-thon at Buchholz High, a Habitat build-a-thon in Porters Community, or a silent auction at the Cade Museum, nothing kills the vibe like a 20-minute food line. Best Food Trucks’ Gainesville-optimized online ordering system fixes that. Guests browse menus on their phones, tap to pay, and stroll back to bidding or cheering. A quick text tells them when their brisket sandwich or açai bowl is ready—no shouting names over a generator.
Need to keep the program tight? Email or post our pre-order link a few days before the event so donors can lock in a pickup window before the first gavel drops. On event day, the trucks fire up, orders roll out on schedule, and you stay laser-focused on smashing that fundraising goal instead of managing meal tickets.
Food truck catering for fundraisers in Gainesville has never been this smooth: zero extra staffing, zero paper order forms, 100% happy Gator Nation supporters. Exceptional eats, hassle-free service—served up faster than a Treon Webb touchdown.

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.

We ordered the Chili Chicken Pizza, Pepperoni Pizza, and an order of wings. Everything was delicious

The Buffalo Chicken Pizza was perfect and the Pepperoni with Bell Pepper was good. I personally had a problem with my veggie pizza, but it is really my fault because I guess the veggie pizza comes with Truffle Oil on it and either I didn't see that or I don't like Truffle Oil. So really the truck gets a 5.

It was fresh and delicious and phenomenal value at $15. I'll definitely eat there again next time they're at Peabody.

. They are really good but I would suggest a better description of the size. We would have ordered a few more.

Joann and her team with Senor Blues was a pleasure to work with for our company Xmas party. They showed up early and were ready to go when our party started and the food was delicious.
