Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

Real feedback from event organizers who booked through Food Truck Club

"

"Food truck was good! The individuals running the truck were hospitable, they arrived early, and all of our guests were satisfied. We got tacos, churros, and elote. My only critique is that the chicken tacos were incredibly dry. The al pastor and asada tacos were much better."

"The Route 66 Mobile Diner was excellent! The food was fresh and delicious, and everyone loved the sodas. The caterers were so friendly and accommodating. And the music was such a nice touch for our office luncheon! I would highly recommend!"

August 2026

"

"The staff that ran the truck was very friendly. The truck showed up ahead of time, probably about 1/2 hour before we were to begin serving and we went over the scenario in case we were to go over the amount requested. The wait was short and the food was good. The only downside I saw was that, at times, the cheese was not completely melted on the sandwiches. Otherwise, a very good experience with this vendor."

Yes. Arlington Heights is within the standard service area for most Chicago-area food trucks. At about 25 miles northwest Chicago, most vendors include Arlington Heights in their regular coverage.
How far in advance should I book food truck catering in Arlington Heights?
We recommend booking 2-3 weeks ahead for best availability in Cook County. During peak corporate event seasons (spring and fall), 4-6 weeks notice gives you the widest truck selection.

What technology does Food Truck Club use for booking and coordination?
Food Truck Club is built on a purpose-built catering technology platform — the only one that lets you browse menus, see real per-person pricing, and book a food truck online in minutes with no phone calls required. Our platform handles automated vendor notifications, digital Stripe invoicing, and SMS and email updates throughout your event.

What happens if it rains on the day of my Arlington Heights event?
Food trucks operate rain or shine and serve from their windows, so guests stay dry. For outdoor seating, consider a backup plan with covered areas. We can help you think through logistics.
