Tampa Bay Food Trucks was our first and is still our primary booking agency since we started our business, in 2022. Mike, Kim, Ben , and Tish , have all been our mentors, plus the other food truckers affiliated, have become our food truck family. It’s an incredibly close-knit network of people who can count on each other, in all circumstances. We have established a good reputation and means of income, because of Tampa Bay Food Trucks! Forever Grateful, Tammy McCarthy 1 Up Burger

Tampa Bay Food Trucks was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding! We had Aloha To-Go as our food truck, and everything, from planning to execution, was seamless. The customer service and coordination team were outstanding: so helpful, accommodating, and on top of every detail. We planned our casual backyard wedding ourselves, and Kim S., our coordinator, made everything feel so much less overwhelming. She handled all the pre-planning with excitement and ease, answered every question before I could even ask, and made sure the day-of ran perfectly. She even made sure the bride and groom were fed first (a detail we never would have remembered in the moment!). As stressful as wedding planning can be, having Kim and the Tampa Bay Food Trucks team in our corner made such a difference. I can’t recommend them enough—amazing food, service, and people!

If I could give 5 more stars, I would! What an amazing booking experience with Ms. Tish. I hired Cluckology Food Truck to cater my twins' Sweet 16 Party at our church and they did NOT disappoint. The wings were blessed and highly flavored...lol Mr. Adam arrived early and served my guests amazing food! I will definitely hire him again and use Tampa Bay Food Trucks for my next event. Thank you so much!

The past few months Ive been up and down going to court fighting ONE FAT FROG over financial disputes, However TAMPA BAY FOOD TRUCK RALLY saved the day. I recently purchased a GREAT food trailer from TAMPA BAY FOOD TRUCK RALLY . The salesman Michael Blasco was very professional.

Im very happy with my purchase, the food trailer looks great runs great. I would definitely recommend TAMPA BAY FOOD TRUCK RALLY to anyone and everyone in the food truck industry.

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.

For parking, make sure there’s a designated spot where the truck can fit, 30' is normally a good rule of thumb. Usually a flat area that’s easy for guests to reach works best. Our food trucks won't need power or water, we're self sufficient! Others may bring their own generators.

However, last-minute requests can sometimes be accommodated. If you have an event coming up, contact us to let us help with all your needs. We can help you plan the perfect menu based on your needs and budget.
