Skip the line and keep your Santa Barbara fundraiser in the spotlight
Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system lets donors soak in the sunset over the Santa Ynez Mountains instead of standing in a food line. Guests simply scan a QR code, place their order from any spot—whether that’s a wine barrel table in the Funk Zone or a blanket on the Great Meadow at SBCC—and receive a text the moment their meal is ready. No crowded queues, no missed paddle-raise, just seamless food truck catering for fundraisers in Santa Barbara.
Planning a charity 5K along Cabrillo Boulevard? Email our pre-order link with the registration packet so runners can schedule a post-race burrito bowl pickup time before the starting gun even fires. From silent auctions at the Cabrillo Pavilion to art-walk benefits on State Street, our “order-ahead” feature keeps the program moving and the bidding paddles high.
Food trucks plus mobile ordering equals maximum donations and zero extra work for your committee. Keep the focus on your mission while we handle the flavor—Santa Barbara fundraiser catering has never been this easy.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

Their Mexican food is great. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the steak sliders were slightly inconsistent, but great tasting.

This is the best burger truck. Everything we ordered was really fresh. Please keep Smash and Roll on Talavera’s list of trucks.

The fries were cooked well and love the seasoning, I just prefer thinner fries. I also think it would be better if the bun was toasted. Otherwise great meal.
