Crunch Into Orange County’s Freshest Chicken With Our Food Truck Catering

Whether you’re posted up on the pier in Huntington Beach, breaking for lunch at an office park in Irvine, or tailgating before an Angels game in Anaheim, a hot-off-the-grill chicken sandwich is the fuel Orange County locals crave. Piled high with crisp lettuce, garden-fresh tomato, and house-made pickles—or served simply fried and golden—chicken done right is unbeatable. But only when it’s made to order. Waiting on a 45-minute delivery window? That just doesn’t fly in the OC.

That’s why our chicken food truck catering in Orange County brings the sizzle right to your curb. Imagine the legendary Motha'clucka Sandwich from Bawking Chicken parked outside your Costa Mesa office, or the crispy tenders from Chicken King FT feeding a birthday crowd in Mission Viejo—piping hot, served in seconds, and Instagram-worthy every time. Even non-chicken specialists like Messi Burger keep OC fans coming back for their secretly awesome wings, while Kiki's Cuban Food and Catalina Tea Bar round out the lineup with Cuban bites and refreshing cold-tea mocktails for a full on-site feast.

From Newport Beach yacht parties to pop-up weddings in San Juan Capistrano, our fleet of vetted Orange County chicken food trucks is ready to roll in, set up, and cook everything fresh on the spot. No chafing dishes, no reheats—just crunchy, juicy chicken straight from the truck to your plate. Book now and taste why OC trusts Best Food Trucks for the ultimate chicken food truck catering experience.

Supporting Orange County’s Small Businesses, One Chicken Sandwich at a Time

Booking chicken food truck catering in Orange County does more than satisfy hungry guests at your event—it keeps our local economy clucking along. Most of the trucks on the Best Food Trucks platform are owned by Santa Ana chefs who perfected their family spice rubs, or by former line cooks from Laguna Beach restaurants who decided to chase their own dream on four wheels. Every time you park one of these trucks outside your office in Newport Beach or your baby-shower in Fullerton, you’re putting real dollars back into OC neighborhoods.

There’s an eco-friendly bonus, too. Because our chicken food trucks cook everything fresh on board, they burn less energy than a brick-and-mortar kitchen running full tilt all day. Plus, the only “leftovers” are compostable plates and the happy memories your guests take home—no stacks of buffet pans headed for the landfill.

So the next time you hop on Google and type “corporate catering near me in Orange County,” skip the same old boxed lunches. Hit up Best Food Trucks instead and serve crave-worthy chicken while supporting the small businesses that make the OC food scene legendary.

It was good but so spicy! I wasn’t expecting it to be spicy. It may be too spicy for the average person lol.

Had the buffalo lemon pepper tenders with fries. Fries were spot on. Hot and fresh. Seasoned nicely. Tenders were not hot. A little heavy on the batter and needed more sauce and lemon pepper. Flavor was fantastic. Just needed a bit more and to be hot and fresh.

Food truck catering is when you hire a food truck to provide freshly made meals from a full service mobile kitchen for your event. Instead of using large containers filled with food made hours earlier, food is made fresh and onsite.
How does food truck catering work with Best Food Trucks?
With Best Food Trucks, you choose the budget for your event and provide details like, time, date, how many diners and what type of party you're throwing. Best Food Trucks will send out your request to regional food trucks who will submit a proposal based on your budget.
How do we choose the budget for our food truck event?
You choose the budget (within our parameters) and we'll find proposals that match that budget. Every proposal we send you will be for your submitted budget.

Are there different budgets for each food truck proposal?
No. Each proposal will be for the budget you've chosen. If you have a budget of $2000, we'll only send you proposals for your budget of $2000.
