My company recently utilized Tampa Bay Food Trucks for a corporate lunch event and we were so happy! We worked with Kim Sanders, who was amazing and incredibly helpful. She was very fast and efficient and kept in constant communication with me for the entire process. The food trucks that we chose for our event were wonderful - they were on-time, friendly, efficient and most importantly delicious and we had great feedback from our employees on the event. Coordinating this with Kim through Tampa Bay Food Trucks was a seamless process, our company looks forward to working with them again!

We had Tampa Bay Food Trucks at our 1 Year Wedding Anniversary Party and they were phenomenal! Dochos Latin Bistro + Pint-Sized Ice Cream made the event unforgettable and we had friends and family raving about the food long after the event was over! The communication behind the scenes was also amazing and we felt confident with the process every step of the way. We will always recommend Tampa Bay Food Trucks to anyone looking to add some fun to their events!

We used Tampa Bay Food Trucks to secure a food truck for a birthday party at the St. Petersburg Shuffleboard Club. Tish was great to work with and very responsive. The process was easy and we were delighted with the Slider Guy food truck we chose. The husband and wife team were friendly and fast, and most importantly, the food was delicious. Our guests were all raving about it!

Our Roots: The Evolution of Tampa’s Food Truck Scene

The Tampa food truck scene gained momentum with the city’s first food truck rally on Sept. 23, 2011, organized by Tasting Tampa. This event helped spark a thriving food truck culture in the region. By 2013, Tampa became one of the top cities for launching a food truck, second only to San Antonio, Texas. Tampa Bay Food Trucks has been instrumental in this growth, partnering with major employers, universities, hospitals, and local attractions such as Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park.
