Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in New York City
In New York, every block party, film shoot, and borough-wide festival lives or dies by two things: the entertainment and the food. Gone are the days when event planners had to wrestle with canvas tents, temporary power lines, and hours of setup just to feed a crowd. Modern food trucks roll in with self-contained commercial kitchens, plug-and-play service, and menus that rival Manhattan’s hottest restaurants—all without the red tape of pop-up tents.
Whether you’re organizing a concert in Central Park, a tech expo at the Javits Center, or a post-marathon celebration along the streets of Brooklyn, Best Food Trucks delivers the most diverse food truck catering New York has to offer. We curate fleets that can handle 500 hungry Yankees fans at Yankee Stadium or 5,000 runners crossing the finish line at the TCS New York City Marathon. From gourmet fare to nostalgic comfort food, our lineup satisfies every New Yorker’s palate and every event’s logistics.
Craving all-American chicken sandwiches that would make Lady Liberty proud? We’ll roll in Yankee Doodle Dandy's, famous for its Love Me Tender Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Soldier wrap. Want to cool down a summer street fair in SoHo? Nothing beats a swirl of vanilla-chocolate from the iconic Carvel Ice Cream Truck. For the Midtown lunch crowd, thin-crust Sicilian squares from Jiannetto's Pizza disappear faster than a subway express train.
If your Wall Street gala needs next-level burgers, Smash Burger serves Angus patties with that perfect New York sear. And for a cultural twist that fits Queens Night Market vibes, MAKINA Cafe dishes out Ethiopian-Eritrean platters with injera that turns every bite into a flavor adventure.
From Times Square to the tip of Staten Island, Best Food Trucks handles permits, pre-orders, and on-site coordination so you can focus on the lights, the music, and the memories. When you need reliable, scalable, and unforgettable large scale event catering in NYC, our food truck network is ready to park, serve, and satisfy—New York style.
Skip the Line—Soak Up the Show, New York!
In a city that never slows down, nobody wants to stand around waiting for lunch. Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system lets your guests order a Katz’s-worthy pastrami melt or a Queens-style birria taco right from their phone and get a text when it’s hot and ready. No elbow-to-elbow lines, no yelling over the A-train rumble—just grab, go, and get back to the music, the keynote, or the Knicks watch party.
Hosting a concert on the Coney Island Boardwalk? Email a pre-order link so fans can lock in a pickup time before the opening act even plugs in. Running a 5K in Prospect Park? Runners can schedule their smoothie bowls for the exact minute they cross the finish line. Our platform is built for Gotham-level volume, so high-frequency orders flow as smoothly as a Downtown 1 train.
Pairing New York food truck catering with mobile ordering is the smartest way to keep thousands of attendees focused on your event—and still feed them the exceptional eats they expect from the culinary capital of the world.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

We were very happy with the Smash Burger truck. They showed up on time, were very professional, and the food was delicious. I would hire them again. Thank you!

The pizza taste great but the picture made them look bigger than the pie was and I didn't know I would have order a few more because they were small.

Nashville bourbon cheesesteak.. delicious only suggestion to put queso sauce in a separate container so the bread won't get soggy.

. The boneless wings and fries were really good but the kids burger barely had a meat patty on it. It was almost eating just bread. I know it's a kids burger but it still costs like 9 dollars.

I made a review earlier about their sauces being a little amount, I’ve tried them since and they have made the portion of their sauces much better and the food was amazing again!
