Backing Sarasota’s Small Businesses – One Chicken Sandwich at a Time
When you reserve a Sarasota chicken food truck through Best Food Trucks, every delicious dollar stays right here on the Suncoast. Our crispy tenders, Nashville-hot sliders, and citrus-marinated grilled chicken bowls come from owner-operated rigs you’ve seen at the Downtown Farmers Market, St. Armands Circle festivals, and spring-training games at Ed Smith Stadium. These chefs are your neighbors—families from Gulf Gate, Southside Village, and across Manatee County who are growing their dreams one order at a time.
Food truck catering is also the eco-smart choice for events on the Gulf. Mobile kitchens run on energy-efficient equipment, create minimal food waste, and leave Bayfront Park and Siesta Key’s powdery sand just as pristine as when we rolled in.

The pizza and the wings were amazing as always. Wait time to receive the food was at or over an hour from placing the order on the BFT app. This has to improve to sustain repeat customers.

A little confusion of the front end, but overall it turned out great! Eveyone loved the pizzas and Seb was great at making sure everyone had what they wanted - including gluten-free options. Every last slice was eaten. It was awesome.
