When to Book

Recommended lead time
15–30 days before your event

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Philadelphia, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Venue & Setup Requirements

Usually self-contained
Most trucks bring their own power and water. Confirm any hookups with Tony Luke's when you book.
Space needed

A flat, accessible parking spot—typically 12' × 25' for most trucks

What is included in the catering price?
Your quote from Tony Luke's includes food preparation, serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), the truck's staff, setup and breakdown, and travel within the Philadelphia service area. The per-serving prices on this page already include Food Truck Club's service fee; sales tax is added and the complete total is shown before you confirm.
How far in advance should I book Tony Luke's?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Tony Luke's typically answers a request within 24 minutes, so you'll know quickly whether the date is open. Food trucks in Philadelphia book up fastest in spring and fall, and events with 100+ guests benefit from a little extra notice for menu planning and staffing.
What types of events does Tony Luke's cater?
Recent bookings through Food Truck Club include a 60-guest catered event in BENSALEM (September 2026) and a 70-guest catered event in Glenside (September 2026), out of 5 events catered so far. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Philadelphia are all bookable from this page.
Where does Tony Luke's serve?
Tony Luke's is based in Philadelphia, PA and takes bookings across Philadelphia, Camden, Gloucester, Delaware, Montgomery, Bucks, Chester, Burlington, Mercer, New Castle and Cecil Counties. Travel inside that area is part of the quote; for a venue outside it, submit the request and the truck will confirm whether it can make the trip.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
Tony Luke's lists vegetarian options and vegan options on its profile. Include a count for each in your booking request so the truck preps enough, and flag any allergies at the same time.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
Usually not. Most food trucks arrive with their own generator, water tank, and cooking equipment, so a flat, accessible parking spot of roughly 12 by 25 feet is all they need. Some trailers and dessert carts do run on an outlet, so mention what your venue offers and Tony Luke's will confirm any hookups before the event.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
Rescheduling is the usual answer when weather turns, and we work with you and the truck to find a date. If the event has to be cancelled, the refund follows the cancellation policy above.
