Food Truck Catering for Philadelphia Schools & Campuses
From the rowhomes of South Philly to the lecture halls on North Broad, students and teachers move fast—and they’re always hungry. Best Food Trucks delivers the most popular food truck catering for schools in Philadelphia, making lunchtime as exciting as a seventh-inning stretch at Citizens Bank Park. Whether you’re planning a Drexel finals week study break, a Temple University Alumni Weekend, or a Friday pep rally at a Main Line high school, our team curates the perfect mix of local food trucks and handles all the logistics for you.
Our online ordering platform lets your campus crowd skip the lines and grab their meals quicker than a Market-Frankford Line commute. No more cash boxes or clipboards—just tap, order, and pick up. We also accommodate vegetarian, vegan, halal, and gluten-free diets so every Owl, Dragon, Wildcat, or Quaker can eat happy.
Check out a few Philly favorites that can roll up to your next event:
- Chuck's BBQ Chuckwagon – slow-smoked brisket, ribs, and pulled pork that taste like a South Street block party.
- The Cow and the Curd – legendary Wisconsin cheese curds fried fresh, giving Cheesesteaks a run for their money.
- Nick's Roast Beef – iconic roast beef sandwiches and classic Philly comfort food since before the Vet was demolished.
- Slurp Philly – scratch-made ramen bowls perfect for chilly afternoons along the Schuylkill.
- Authentik Byrek – flaky Mediterranean pastries packed with flavor, ideal for a global-taste lunch period.
Partner with Best Food Trucks and turn any Philadelphia school event into a culinary touchdown. We’ll secure the permits, coordinate parking on those narrow Center City streets, and make sure the only thing you have to worry about is deciding which truck to try first. Book your campus food trucks today and elevate the way Philly learns—and eats.
Matt,
You and the Best Food Trucks team knocked it out of the park again this year. From our Homecoming tailgate on Locust Walk to the Spring Fest over in West Philly, your Philadelphia food truck catering kept students and faculty happy and well-fed at every stop. Thanks for being such a dependable partner!
