What does a burger truck cost for an event in Boston?

Full-service event pricing in Greater Boston typically lands between $15 and $30 per person depending on menu and service style, and burger trucks sit at the value end. Weekday lunches usually start around 50 guests and celebrations around 75-100. Pricing includes setup, service, and cleanup.

Are plant-based burgers available?

Yes. Plant-based and veggie patties are standard on most Boston burger trucks. Specify needs in your request.

How fast can a burger truck serve a large group?

With pre-orders or a limited menu, a burger truck can clear a 30-minute break for a mid-size group, and a second truck covers large crowds. We plan the service window with you.

Are there burger trucks on the Boston roster right now?

Boston's roster is new and growing, and burger trucks are being verified as they join. Request a quote with your date and we'll tell you what's available or suggest the closest option. We'd rather be upfront than promise a truck that isn't there yet.

How far in advance should I book?

A couple of weeks of notice covers most events, and week-of works more often than not. Summer weekends and anything near commencement season in late May and June go first, so book those early. Winter weekdays have the best availability of the year.

Do trucks serve the suburbs, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island?

Yes. Coverage runs Boston and Cambridge, the Route 128 and 495 office parks, the North and South Shores, Worcester, southern New Hampshire, and Providence. Travel fees may apply outside the urban core.

Can trucks get into downtown towers, lab campuses, and hospitals?

Yes, with advance coordination. These sites usually require a certificate of insurance naming the property, a scheduled loading-dock or curb window, and sometimes vendor registration. Share the site when you request quotes and we handle the paperwork with the truck.

Can trucks operate in Boston winters?

Yes. Trucks serve year-round from covered loading areas, parking garages, and indoor-adjacent setups where guests order outside and eat inside.

Boston is a new market for Food Truck Club. How are trucks vetted?

Boston is one of our newest markets and the roster is being built truck by truck. Every vendor is vetted before their first booking: permits and insurance confirmed, menus and pricing reviewed, and the operator interviewed about capacity and communication. Post-event reviews feed into the same rating system that averages 4.8 stars across 630+ reviews nationwide.
