Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in New York

From summer concerts on the Great Lawn in Central Park to corporate gatherings in Hudson Yards and post-game celebrations outside Yankee Stadium, New Yorkers know how to throw a party—and they expect the food to be as memorable as the skyline. Modern event planners across the five boroughs have traded old-school tent kitchens for the convenience and flavor of food trucks. These rolling restaurants arrive fully self-contained, cutting out lengthy permitting, power hook-ups, and tear-down times, all while serving dishes worthy of a James Beard–level palate.

Best Food Trucks specializes in coordinating multiple food truck catering options for large scale events in New York. Whether you’re feeding 500 runners after the NYC Marathon or 5,000 fans at a Brooklyn waterfront festival, we curate the perfect lineup so every guest finds something to rave about on Instagram before the next subway arrives.

Looking for iconic New York comfort food? Book Yankee Doodle Dandy’s for crispy chicken tenders and the famed Love Me Tender Chicken Sandwich. Need late-night slices worthy of Staten Island ferry tales? Jiannetto’s Pizza plates award-winning grandma-style Sicilian squares that hold up on the go.

Not every large crowd craves the same cuisine—so mix it up. Pair juicy Angus patties from Smash Burger with the rich, injera-wrapped flavors of MAKINA Cafe for an Ethiopian-Eritrean twist. Top it all off with a nostalgic swirl from the Carvel Ice Cream Truck; nothing cools off a packed Midtown block party faster than vanilla-chocolate twist soft-serve.

Whether your event takes over Times Square on New Year’s Eve or transforms Prospect Park for a weekend market, Best Food Trucks delivers seamless, scalable solutions. Tell us the venue, headcount, and vibe, and we’ll handle routing, permits, and crowd-flow logistics—so you can focus on the playlist and let our fleet feed New York, one hungry guest at a time.

Skip the Line and Soak Up Your New York Large-Scale Event

New Yorkers don’t queue unless it’s worth it—and with Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system, they don’t have to queue at all. Guests simply scan a QR code, place an order from their phone, and get a text alert faster than the 4-Train express. No jammed walkways, no shouting over street-corner saxophones—just more time to enjoy the headliner on Randall’s Island or the keynote at the Javits Center.

Planning a monster turnout? Our platform is built to handle Yankee Stadium–sized rushes without breaking a sweat. Thousands of simultaneous orders route to each truck in real time, so kitchens keep cooking and lines stay virtual. Push out a preorder link days in advance and let attendees lock in a pickup window that fits their schedule—perfect for runners carb-loading before the Brooklyn Half or families timing lunch between sets at Governors Ball.

Food truck catering for large scale events in New York plus frictionless mobile ordering equals a win-win: your audience focuses on the event, our curated fleet dishes out exceptional eats, and everyone leaves raving about more than just the skyline.

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.

Fat Boys Food Truck catered our CEO’s 25th anniversary celebration, and they were fantastic from start to finish! The team was punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Our staff had great things to say about how delicious everything was — the food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We were pleasantly surprised by the variety of options; we were expecting just burgers but were thrilled to see chicken tenders, wraps, and salads as well. Everyone found something they loved! Thank you, Fat Boys, for helping make our event such a success. We’ll definitely keep you in mind for future celebrations!
