Food truck and communication was great, however there was confusion as the driver thought BFT booked the event for 100, when in fact I booked for 200 meals

We were very pleased woth the overall experience with Willie B’s. The food was good and came out quickly enough for the teachers to enjoy their lunch. There were plenty of options for any degree of health or comfort food. We had good feedback from the teacher about the quality of the food as well. The only issue was lack of communication. The communication was good until the day of. The truck was 20 min late which definitely caused some concern for our team. No call, text or comment was made when they did finally show up. I had been told we would receive a text prior to arrival and we did not. Thankfully they did not need the 30+ minutes they originally said they would to set up so it did not cause issues with the service. The only reason I feel that it is important to mention this is that a simple text or call to notify us that they would be later than we discussed the day before, would have avoided any confusion and stress for our team.

Would have been a 5 star but they got there exactly at the time the luncheon was scheduled to start - making me a little nervous! Aside from that the food and service were both excellent!
