Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in New York
From summer concerts in Central Park to the marathon crowds lining First Avenue, New Yorkers know that a great event isn’t complete without unforgettable food. Gone are the days when organizers had to fuss with bulky tents, endless permits, and generators just to feed the masses. Modern food trucks roll in with fully self-contained commercial kitchens, set up in minutes, and start serving Brooklyn to the Bronx without missing a beat. When you partner with Best Food Trucks, you tap into the city’s most iconic mobile eateries—perfect for festivals, street fairs, film shoots on the Hudson, or a Giants tailgate in Jersey.
Craving crispy chicken on the Staten Island waterfront? Invite Yankee Doodle Dandy’s and watch lines form for their Love Me Tender Chicken Sandwich. Need thin-crust grandma slices for a corporate crowd in Midtown? Jiannetto's Pizza will fire up those legendary Sicilian squares. Burger fans at your Brooklyn block party will flock to Smash Burger, while dessert lovers cool off with classic soft-serve from the Carvel Ice Cream Truck. Want to add global flair to a Queens cultural festival? MAKINA Cafe brings soulful Ethiopian-Eritrean plates that turn any gathering into a culinary adventure.
No matter the borough or the headcount—500 concert-goers at Forest Hills Stadium or 5,000 runners at a charity 5K—Best Food Trucks curates the right mix of mobile kitchens, coordinates scheduling, and handles every permit and payment detail. Book with us and give your guests the ultimate New York food truck experience, one delicious bite at a time.
Skip the Line and Savor the Event, New York!
In the city that never sleeps, no one wants to nap in a food line. Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system lets guests at your large-scale event tap their phones, place an order, and get a text when it’s ready—whether they’re swaying at SummerStage in Central Park or tailgating outside Yankee Stadium.
Attendees scroll the menus of every truck on-site, pay instantly with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or even the same card they use for OMNY, then head right back to the action. The result? More time singing along at Governors Ball, shopping the Union Square Holiday Market, or cheering a Knicks playoff watch party in Bryant Park, and zero time stuck in a slow-moving queue.
Want to kick things off even faster? Send a pre-order link with the event invite. Guests can lock in a 12:30 PM slice from their favorite pizza truck before the first guitar riff on Randall’s Island. Built to handle New York–sized crowds, our platform processes thousands of simultaneous orders without breaking a sweat, keeping lines short and stomachs satisfied.
Food truck catering for large-scale events in New York plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering is the winning recipe for keeping your crowd fed, happy, and laser-focused on the fun that brought them together.

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!
