How we rank

How this list of Detroit trucks is ranked

Updated hourly from bookings on Food Truck Club

  1. 1

    Rated by hosts

    After every event the host rates the truck. Only trucks booked through Food Truck Club can be reviewed.

  2. 2

    Weighted by volume

    A long record counts for more than a handful of reviews, so a few perfect scores do not outrank dozens of great ones.

  3. 3

    Ties go to recent work

    Trucks with more confirmed bookings in the last 12 months rank higher. Trucks without a review yet come last.

Local know-how

Planning a food truck event in Detroit

Metro Detroit's trucks cover tacos and birria, smoked BBQ, Mediterranean shawarma and falafel, hot dogs and sliders, sandwiches, Spanish and Latin dishes, South Asian fusion, ice cream and coffee. The cuisine mix on this page updates as trucks join.

Each city in the metro sets its own rules for mobile vendors, and plants, office campuses and parks add their own. Tell the truck where it will park and what the site requires when you book. Every truck is reviewed and approved by our team before it can take bookings and carries its own health permit and liability insurance, with a certificate of insurance available on request.

For event ideas and costs by event type, start with the Detroit food truck guide, or browse every Detroit truck by cuisine.

  • Downtown, Midtown and Corktown

    Office lunches, Wayne State events and gatherings around Campus Martius and Eastern Market; confirm curb or lot access and whether your spot needs a city street permit.

  • Dearborn and Downriver

    Plant, supplier and office campus events; confirm gate access, badging and whether the site needs a certificate of insurance naming the property.

  • Oakland County office corridors

    Troy's Big Beaver corridor, Southfield, Farmington Hills and Auburn Hills host office lunches and employee appreciation days; confirm with property management where the truck can park.

  • Macomb County, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti

    Warren and Sterling Heights industrial sites plus campus events in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti; ask whether the site or campus keeps an approved vendor list.

FAQ

Questions about Detroit's top rated trucks

How is this list of Detroit food trucks ranked?

By host reviews. After each event booked through Food Truck Club, the host rates the truck. Trucks are ordered by their average rating, weighted by how many reviews it rests on, so a truck with a long record is not outranked by one with two reviews.

Ties go to the truck with more confirmed bookings in the last 12 months. Verified Detroit trucks without a review yet are listed after the rated ones, by recent bookings. The list updates hourly.

Why do so few Detroit trucks have reviews yet?

Detroit is a new market on Food Truck Club. Ratings come only from hosts after their events, so they build as Detroit events are served and reviewed. Trucks without reviews yet are listed after the rated ones.

Every truck on the list was reviewed and approved by our team before it could take bookings, carries its own health permit and liability insurance, and is covered by our Satisfaction Guarantee.

What do Detroit's top rated trucks charge per person?

Across bookings on Food Truck Club, the typical price is $18 per person before tax, and the middle half of events land between $14 and $24. The median minimum order is $750; an event for 100 to 149 guests typically totals about $1,950, and one for 200 to 299 guests about $3,096.

These are platform-wide medians, not local figures. Each truck on this list shows its own per-serving price and minimum, so compare those before you book, or see the food truck cost guide for how guest count and cuisine change the total.

Can I book a specific truck from this list?

Yes. Open the truck's profile, check its menu, per-serving price and minimum, then pick your date and guest count, place the order online and pay.

If your first choice is not free on your date, pick another truck from this list or browse every Detroit truck. You can also tell us about the event and we'll match you with an available truck. See how it works.

Can I book a Detroit food truck for a winter event?

Yes. Trucks serve through the winter, but guests order at the window and need somewhere warm to eat, so plan an indoor space next to the parking spot, a heated tent or a covered loading area. Confirm with the venue where the truck can park and run its generator, and ask the truck about its cold-weather setup when you book.

The dates that go first are summer weekends from Memorial Day to Labor Day, when graduation parties, block parties and festivals compete for the same trucks, so book those early.
