Why Event Planners Choose Food Trucks
The catering choice that delivers on taste and experience
Easy to Eat Anywhere
Sandwiches work at a desk, on a lawn or standing at a tailgate. No plates, no cutlery.
Fast Lines
Sandwiches assemble quickly, so one truck keeps a 150-guest lunch moving in a normal window.
Options for Every Diet
A vegan sandwich, gluten-free buns, lettuce wraps and a plain grilled cheese are on the roster.
Priced in the Middle
Sandwich trucks land in the middle of Austin's per-guest range, below brisket plates and above pizza.

Best Times to Book in Austin
Plan around Central Texas weather and the festival calendar
Sandwiches travel well in the heat. Plan shade for the line and an evening slot for a July event; lemonade from the deli truck helps.
UT football Saturdays and ACL Fest weekends in October are the contested dates, so book those early. Otherwise this is the best outdoor weather of the year.
December holiday parties fill calendars, and January is the quietest month, with the widest choice of trucks. Austin's mild winters keep outdoor service comfortable most days.
SXSW week in March goes first, so book that early. April and May bring ideal weather, and graduation Saturdays in late May fill fast.
