Food Truck Catering for Events in Portland

Ask any Portlander and they’ll tell you: a perfect summer evening at Movies in the Park or a packed crowd at PDX Pop Now! isn’t complete without a lineup of incredible food trucks. Today’s rigs are fully self-contained commercial kitchens, so you skip the miles of extension cords and complicated fire permits that old-school tent vendors needed. In other words, if you’re planning an event in Portland—be it at Tom McCall Waterfront Park, the Moda Center plaza, or a backyard in Sellwood—renting food trucks is the quickest way to elevate the menu while keeping the Rose City vibe alive.

Best Food Trucks partners with the local icons your guests already crave. Picture the smoky Korean BBQ aromas drifting from Kim Jong Grillin at the Cart Blocks Pod, or the sizzle of handmade tamales rolling out of Tamale Boy’s bright red truck. Want breakfast-for-dinner downtown? Book Cafe de Crepe and watch Pioneer Courthouse Square turn into a little slice of Paris.

Portland’s food trucks also bring serious variety. You can serve authentic Mexican street eats from Amelia's Food Cart—famous for its chorizo-and-egg burritos—or rich Oaxacan mole from Mole Mole Mexican Cuisine on NE Alberta. Whether your crowd wants vegan kimchi bowls, gluten-free tamales, or Nutella-stuffed crepes, our curated roster ensures every dietary box is checked.

From indie concerts on the Eastside to corporate retreats in the Pearl District, food truck catering for events in Portland means faster setup, shorter lines, and happier guests. Let Best Food Trucks handle the scheduling, routing, and on-site service so you can focus on the music, the keynote speaker, or just enjoying a cold IPA while Portland’s best mobile chefs do their thing.

Convention catering

Skip the line—keep Portland weird, not waiting!

Nothing kills the vibe at a Waterfront Blues Festival set or a Rose City Rollers bout faster than a long food line. With Best Food Trucks’ Portland-ready online ordering system, your guests tap a menu on their phones, pick a time slot, and get a text the moment their marionberry BBQ slider or vegan kimchi bowl is ready. No crowding the sidewalk, no missing the guitar solo.

Hosting a company picnic at Laurelhurst Park or a wedding out in Sauvie Island? Send a pre-order link days in advance so attendees can lock in a pickup time before the first toast. Our system staggers orders automatically, which means the trucks fire up only what’s needed, cutting food waste and keeping Portland green.

Food truck catering for events in Portland has never been smoother: fewer lines, faster service, and more time for your guests to enjoy a cold Pacific Northwest IPA while the Timbers Army chant echoes in the background. Exceptional eats, zero hassle—exactly how Portland likes it.

Lupita's Tacos were incredible - I've received positive feedback from attendees! The food was great! I really appreciated the pre-packaging, it made everything go by so smoothly and the line was never too long. And communication up to the event was great. My one suggestion would be to label the pre-packaging so people know what type of meat is inside the burritos/tacos, instead of having to open each container. But other than that, amazing! Will definitely keep them in mind for future events :)
