Why a food truck

Made for the big day

  • Backyard grad parties

    Family, friends and the whole class in one place. The truck serves to order, so guests eat when they arrive.

  • School & campus commencements

    A celebration treat for graduates and their families right after the ceremony.

  • Class nights & senior days

    An end-of-year surprise for the graduating class, served in the lot or on the field.

  • A crowd that comes in waves

    Graduation guests rarely arrive together. A truck keeps serving fresh for the whole window.

How it works

How to plan a graduation with a truck

Start my request
  1. 01

    Book early for May and June

    Graduation weekends are some of the first dates to go. Six to eight weeks ahead keeps your choice of truck open.

  2. 02

    Share the ceremony time

    Tell us when the ceremony ends and we plan the truck to be serving the moment guests walk out.

  3. 03

    Check the space

    A driveway, lot or curb with about 25 to 30 feet of flat ground. Send the address or a photo and we confirm it fits.

  4. 04

    Hosting with other families?

    A joint party is an easy way to reach the 100-guest starting point. Tell us the combined count.

What’s included

One booking. Everything handled.

You pick the truck and the date. Everything below comes with it.

You book direct

Snack City NYC owns and staffs every truck and runs its own booking. No marketplace and no middleman: the team that answers your request is the team that shows up.

  • The truck and our own crew

    Every truck is company-owned and arrives fully staffed by a crew we train ourselves.

  • Made fresh on board

    Everything is prepared on the truck and served to order at the window.

  • Setup, service and cleanup

    We arrive early, serve your guests and leave the spot spotless.

  • Paperwork for your venue

    DOH certified, licensed and insured, with a certificate of insurance for your venue on request.

  • A fixed written quote

    Priced for your guest count and service time. It does not grow on the day.

  • One point of contact

    A coordinator confirms access, parking and timing with you before the day.

What happens if it rains on my event day?
