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."

District Tips

Your Guide to Kendall Square Food Truck Catering

Lab campuses have their own vendor rules and their own calendar. Here's what to plan for in Kendall Square.

Clear Vendor Paperwork With Facilities

Biotech and tech campuses typically require a certificate of insurance naming the company or landlord, a facilities-approved placement, and sometimes vendor registration. Share the campus when you request quotes and we handle the documentation with the truck.

Plan Around MIT and Milestone Season

MIT commencement in late May, move-in in late August, and the end-of-quarter milestone celebrations that cluster across biotech campuses are the busiest windows. Book 4-6 weeks ahead for those and 3 weeks for a standard lab lunch.

Build for Dietary Range

Kendall Square teams routinely need vegetarian, vegan, halal, and allergen-aware options. Specify requirements in your request so quotes come from trucks that can meet them, and consider two trucks for large groups with diverse needs.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about food truck catering in Boston

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our customer support team.

What do Kendall Square campuses require from a food truck vendor?
Usually a certificate of insurance naming the company or landlord, a facilities-approved placement, and sometimes vendor registration. We manage these with the truck before event day.
Can trucks serve on the MIT campus?
Yes. Campus events go through the department or student group's approval and MIT facilities' placement rules. We coordinate with your campus contact and handle vendor documentation.
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: mobile food permits and insurance certificates confirmed, menus and pricing reviewed, and the operator interviewed about capacity and communication. Post-event reviews from your guests then feed into the same rating system that averages 4.8 stars across 600+ reviews in our other metros.
How do trucks handle a team with many dietary restrictions?
Specify the requirements in your request and quotes come from trucks that can meet them. For large groups with diverse needs, two trucks with complementary menus keep everyone covered and lines short.
What happens if there's a snowstorm or extreme cold?
Trucks operate through New England winters with covered loading areas, parking-garage placements, and indoor-adjacent service. For severe weather, we work with you and the truck to reschedule. Winter weekdays often have the best truck availability of the year.
