Eat from a Truck in Charlotte NCEating from a truck is something that many of us never thought we would do - or maybe you did - I never did!  Today, that's where you'll get some of the best food you've ever eaten!

 

The food truck scene in Charlotte has simply exploded over the last few years.  It all began with a handful of mobile eateries and has turned into a vibrant subculture in Charlotte.

 

Yes, the city’s culinary landscape has expanded to eating food from trucks! 

 

Looking for some of the best BBQ in the city or are you looking for healthy vegan dining? You’ll find everything from sophisticated meals to eat-on-the-run wraps in our local food trucks. You may even find it a difficult choice during the Food Truck Friday rallies in South End and Matthews each week! 


So, if you haven't ventured out to try eating food from a truck, you simply must!  Join us on Fridays at South End (right by our office!) for Food Truck Friday - you'll become a raving fan like we have!

Kathy Streib - I remember when they started doing business here and we always thought of the construction sandwich trucks and it took a bit for them to catch on. When they did, they grew like wildfire!

Good evening Debe Maxwell ,  I guess times have changed in recent years.  I remember when the only time you saw a food truck was at the factories during lunch or break times.  It definately wasn't gourmet!

Food trucks are all the rage. My nephew had them at his wedding reception. Some agents are using them to provide food at broker open houses. I have had some of the best tacos ever at one of these.

I've had some really amazing food from a food truck. When I see these trucks I give serious consideration to stopping if I'm hungry.
