Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Tampa
If you’ve ever strolled down Bayshore Boulevard during Gasparilla or joined the pre-game buzz outside Raymond James Stadium, you know Tampa’s crowds get hungry fast. Traditional tent vendors simply can’t keep up with the volume—or the city’s famously fickle weather. Modern food trucks, on the other hand, roll in with fully equipped, self-contained kitchens that are ready to serve thousands in minutes. That’s why event planners searching for “food truck catering Tampa” or “large scale event catering Tampa” trust Best Food Trucks to bring the heat (and the eats) to festivals, concerts at the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre, USF homecoming celebrations, and waterfront gatherings along the Riverwalk.
Best Food Trucks curates a lineup that fits every palate and portion size. Want award-winning BBQ that can satisfy a crowd after a Lightning playoff win at Amalie Arena? We’ll book Wicked Oak Barbeque for brisket that melts like Tampa sunshine. Need melty comfort food for a late-night Ybor City block party? The Melt Machine Grilled Cheese keeps the cheese pulls coming. Craving Latin flavors for a corporate retreat at Sparkman Wharf? Coco's Latin Cuisine Food Truck serves Tampa’s favorite empanadas and arroz con pollo. Hosting a bacon-centric brunch before the Outback Bowl? Bacon Boss #2 has the sizzle covered. And of course, no Sunshine State soirée is complete without street tacos from The Taco Boss.
From permitting to power to parking logistics, we handle every detail so you can focus on the show, the game, or the music. Whether you need five trucks for a riverfront festival or twenty for a citywide celebration, Best Food Trucks is Tampa’s one-stop solution for large-scale food truck catering.
Skip the Line—Soak Up the Tampa Vibes!
Nothing kills Gasparilla spirit faster than standing in a 40-minute food line on Bayshore. Best Food Trucks solves that problem with Tampa’s first high-volume online ordering system for food truck catering. Guests simply scan a QR code, place their order from any truck on site, and get a text when their Cuban sandwich or grouper tacos are hot and ready. No lines, no FOMO—just more time to catch the pirate invasion, the touchdown, or the sunset over Old Tampa Bay.
Hosting a tech conference at the Tampa Convention Center or a concert at Julian B. Lane Riverfront Park? Send attendees a pre-order link days in advance. They can choose an exact pickup window, pay securely on their phones, and walk up to the truck when their name is called. Our system processes thousands of orders per hour, so even a packed crowd after a Lightning playoff win moves smoothly.
Food trucks for large-scale events in Tampa + Best Food Trucks’ online ordering = maximum fun, minimal wait. Let the crowd focus on the music, the game, and the Gulf Coast breezes—while we handle the hunger.

Freshness. Crispy oinion rings and fries. Burgers were perfectly built. Only critique would be on the pricey side.

The crispy crunchy bread. Also like that it doesn't come with a side because the sandwich is plenty by itself.

When we ordered in September, it was awesome! This time, there were 4 misshapen ribs (one huge, 2 medium, one bite size). The sausage also tasted overcooked and was sliced into small pieces (nothing like the last time). The is was the first time that we had food requested at the start of the shift, and not at 7:00 PM, and it seemed as if this was leftover from a prior shift and 'dumped' on us. Was still tasty with the sauce, but disappointed in this trip (and we raved about Logan's to many friends.....)

We ordered the Chili Chicken Pizza, Pepperoni Pizza, and an order of wings. Everything was delicious

. The boneless wings and fries were really good but the kids burger barely had a meat patty on it. It was almost eating just bread. I know it's a kids burger but it still costs like 9 dollars.

Don't run out of German potato salad so early in the evening. We placed our order before 5:00 for a 5:20 pick up and they were already out of it.

The brisket and collards were on point. The flavor profile was spot on. Looking forward for the next time.

I wish there was another slice of tomato on my loaded grilled cheese, it was a lot of bread. The kale salad was very tasty. Thanks

the ribs had a nice smoky flavor and parts that were burnt ends, I love that. Sauce was very good too
