By managing food truck daily life from event booking, to online ordering and catering we have cultivated an intimate relationship with great vendors throughout the country and know exactly which truck(s) will suit your needs, from a small neighborhood party to massive corporate events.
Best Food Trucks is revolutionizing the way Des Moines experiences on-campus events, bringing a unique blend of convenience and culinary excitement right to the heart of your university. Picture the iconic Drake University quad or the bustling Iowa State University campus transformed into a dynamic food truck festival. Students, faculty, and visitors alike can savor an assortment of scrumptious dishes, from gourmet burgers to exquisite tacos, all provided by our diverse food trucks. This on-campus atmosphere not only livens up the environment but also strengthens the community bond as everyone gathers to enjoy these mobile gastronomic wonders.
Envision the lively scene as a fleet of food trucks parks along the main square of Grand View University or Des Moines University. Students past and present, along with faculty, can mix and mingle, relishing tasty treats from various cuisines, all while reminiscing about their college experiences. The on-campus setting boosts school spirit and offers a convenient dining solution for those already present, making every bite a memory to cherish.
For off-campus events in Des Moines, Best Food Trucks elevates your celebration to the next level. Whether it's practices, social gatherings, conferences, dinners, meetings, service events, and more, our food trucks bring the party to you. Off-campus locations allow for larger crowds and the chance to add extra entertainment, such as live music or games, creating an unforgettable experience. And with Des Moines' unique venues that might not always be equipped for traditional catering, food trucks provide a versatile and efficient solution, ready to serve in even the most challenging locations.
Among the stars of the Des Moines food truck scene is The Big Red Food Truck, known for its American bistro cuisine. This food truck has become a local favorite, serving the Des Moines Metro area with pub-style food that's perfect for any on or off-campus event. Having been a part of the community for nearly nine years, winning numerous food truck competitions, and even making an appearance on the Food Network, The Big Red Food Truck is a testament to the vibrant food culture in Des Moines. Don't miss their award-winning dishes, celebrated for bringing a taste of the Iowa State Fair right to your event with their sister trailer, The Cluckin' Coop.
