Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about private party food truck catering

Can I get a food truck for a small private party?

Yes. Our minimum for food truck service is 20 guests. If you have fewer people, our drop-off catering option can work well — we prepare everything fresh and deliver it to your location without the truck.

What kinds of private events do you cater?

We cater birthday parties (milestones and regular), anniversary celebrations, family reunions, block parties, neighborhood gatherings, graduation parties, retirement celebrations, and any other private event where great food makes the day better.

Can the food truck come to my house?

Yes, as long as there's driveway or street access with about 30 ft of clearance for the truck plus a line area. Many of our private parties are in residential neighborhoods. We'll confirm access when you book.

How long does the food truck stay at my private party?

Standard service windows are 2–4 hours, depending on your package. For smaller parties, 2 hours is usually plenty. For larger events with staggered arrival times, we can extend the window. Tell us your headcount and schedule when you quote.

Can I customize the menu for my party?

Our menu is built around gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches, hand-cut fries, and tomato soup — but we work with you to select the specific sandwiches and items that fit your party. We can also accommodate dietary restrictions including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free.
