Mobile Catering Excellence

Hire a Food Truck for Your Event

Grilly Cheese food truck catering is a mobile event catering service that brings a fully-equipped gourmet grilled cheese food truck directly to your event across Philadelphia, New Jersey, and the greater Northeast. The service is built for gatherings of 20 to 6,000 guests, with on-site cooking, professional staffing, and a self-contained operation that requires no venue kitchen or external utilities. Founded in Philadelphia in 2012 and recognized as one of the top six grilled cheese brands in the nation, Grilly Cheese has catered more than 2,500 weddings, corporate events, and private celebrations throughout NJ, PA, NYC, MD, DE, and DC.

We bring our fully-equipped food truck right to your event and cook everything to order on site. Gourmet grilled cheese, fresh fries, and a crew that keeps the line moving.

Quick Answer:

Grilly Cheese brings a full-service grilled cheese food truck to your event, cooking to order and serving fast. We can plan events from intimate gatherings to very large groups, with capacity based on the menu, order mix, equipment, crew size, service window, and guest flow. For large events, we may recommend a slimmed-down menu, staggered waves, additional stations, or multiple trucks. We are self-contained with an onboard generator and typically need a 30 ft by 10 ft space.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I hire a food truck for my event?

To hire Grilly Cheese for your event, submit a quote request on our website or call us directly. We'll confirm your date, discuss menu options and guest count, then send a contract and deposit invoice to lock in your booking. We arrive 30–60 minutes early to set up and serve during your designated time window.

How much does it cost to hire a food truck for an event?

Food truck rental pricing varies based on guest count, menu selections, event duration, and travel distance. Contact us for a custom quote tailored to your specific event needs.

What size events can I book a food truck for?

You can book our food truck for events ranging from 50 to 500+ guests. For smaller gatherings under 50, drop-off catering may be more economical. For very large events, we can coordinate multiple trucks or combine with drop-off platters.

What do I need to provide when renting a food truck?

You just need adequate space for the truck (roughly a parking space and a half) and clearance of at least 10 feet overhead. We're self-contained with our own generator, so no electrical hookups are needed. Just provide access and guests.
