Skip the Line and Soak Up Your Traverse City Neighborhood Event

With Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system, your guests can keep their eyes on the sunset over West Bay—not on a ticket window. Instead of queuing up outside the truck, neighbors place orders right from their phones and receive a text the moment their smoked-whitefish tacos or cherry-BBQ sliders are ready. No lines, no confusion—just Traverse City food truck catering done right.

Hosting a Front Street porch-fest, an evening concert in Hannah Park, or a post–Cherry Festival block party in Central Neighborhood? Send out a pre-order link in advance so residents can schedule a convenient pickup time before, during, or after the festivities. They’ll spend more time cheering on the kids’ bike parade and less time waiting for lunch.

Food truck catering plus online ordering is the smartest, most seamless way to serve outstanding eats at any Traverse City neighborhood event—hassle-free for you and unforgettable for your guests.

Well, my husband and I ordered the Italian beef sandwich and it was phenomenal. The crunch on that bread was amazing. Probably the best sandwich I've ever had on Italian beef as a matter of fact, it was the best sandwich ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Truck arrived well before the event to prepare. The owners/workers were very friendly as I met them upon arrival. They provided a varied selection of entrees to satisfy everyone's tastes and provided options for those with dietary restrictions. Food was also delicious per the team; I can say the burgers and burritos were a hit.
