Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Portland, ME

From summer concerts on Thompson’s Point to the Kite Festival on the Eastern Prom, the biggest gatherings in Portland, Maine share two essentials: killer views of Casco Bay and unforgettable eats. Modern food truck catering for large-scale events in Portland (ME) has replaced the old canvas-tent set-ups that once clogged up Deering Oaks with extension cords and extra permits. Today’s trucks roll in with self-contained commercial kitchens, cut their engines, and start serving lobster-roll crowds in minutes—no fuss, no mess, and no three-hour breakdown at the end of the night.

Best Food Trucks curates Portland’s most popular mobile kitchens so event planners don’t have to juggle menus, permits, and power hookups. Whether you’re feeding 50 craft-beer fans at Bissell Brothers or 5,000 runners at the Shipyard Old Port Half Marathon, we’ll build a delicious lineup that moves lines fast and keeps guests smiling.

Craving local flavor? We’ve got it covered:

  • PB&ME flips the classic peanut-butter sandwich on its head with over-the-top American-comfort combos that pair perfectly with Sebago Brewing pours.
  • Mainely Hotdogs serves snappy Maine red dogs and all the “accessories” you need—think brown-butter lobster rolls and house-made relishes—for a true backyard-cookout vibe.
  • Crepe Elizabeth brings a touch of Paris to the Portland Peninsula with sweet and savory crêpes ideal for brunch-time festivals at Payson Park.
  • Frozen Rooster fries up crispy buttermilk chicken tenders that disappear faster than the tide at Higgins Beach.
  • Lucky Lou's Portland spins gyro cones and grills souvlaki, giving large Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont crowds a taste of the Aegean.

No matter the scale—Portland Sea Dogs home opener, corporate retreats on Peaks Island, or a university commencement at USM—Best Food Trucks delivers efficient, crowd-pleasing food truck catering in Portland, ME. Tell us your headcount and venue, and we’ll coordinate the permits, POS systems, and menu mix so you can focus on live music, craft beer, and that famous salty sea breeze.

Marathon catering

Skip the Line in Portland, ME—Enjoy the Large-Scale Event!

Best Food Trucks pairs Portland, ME food truck catering for large-scale events with a lightning-fast online ordering system that keeps crowds moving, whether you’re rocking out at Thompson’s Point or cheering the Maine Celtics at the Expo. Instead of standing in a 40-person queue for a brown-butter lobster roll, guests tap in their order from a phone, wander back to the stage or beer garden, and get a text the moment their food is ready.

Planning something huge, like the Maine Brewers’ Festival or the Peaks Island Relay? Send a pre-order link days in advance so runners, brewers, and volunteers can choose a pickup window before the ferry even leaves Casco Bay Lines. Our platform is built to handle the kind of high-frequency ordering that comes with 5,000 hungry Mainers all breaking for lunch at once.

The result: shorter lines, happier sponsors, and attendees who remember your live music and waterfront views—not the wait for their tacos. Food truck catering in Portland, ME plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering equals the smoothest way to feed a crowd while you keep the focus on the fun.

Food was amazing. Chef Yarwood clearly knows what he is doing. The steak tips with mushrooms and onions as well as the Mac and cheese were truly delicious. I will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Good pizza! I love the crust and the garlic is over the top! Suggestion: allow me to add sausage and extra basil to the base white pizza without adding red sauce.😉

The Ice Dreammm Truck was a hit. Strawberry Shortcake was a favorite. The employees were very friendly.

I found the cheese pizza to be salty and the margherita pizza needed more tomato sauce. The cauliflower crust was good as was the balsamic vinaigrette.

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!

The sandwich and salad combination is a good value: whole sandwich and large salad. It was also very tasty.
