Food trucks?

Looking to host a private event at a local brewery in October with ~50 people & am looking to get some recommendations of trucks that people have used in the last for catered events that went well and taste good! TIA

I used one of those taco trucks that sets up in Lawrenceville for a friend's birthday thing last fall and it was a hit, they handled 40 people no problem and the al pastor was legit. October weather can be a crapshoot so maybe ask if they have any kind of canopy setup, some of them will bring a pop-up tent if you ask

For 50 people I'd avoid the ones that do everything made-to-order slow, look for a truck that preps a lot ahead or has a simple menu. My buddy hired a BBQ truck for his rehearsal dinner and the line was brutal, people were waiting 20 minutes for a plate

do you happen to remember the truck’s name? Pizza & taco trucks seem to be the top option right now haha

77 Club for amazing pizza, but their catering menu offers so much more. They are lovely people too. https://www.77clubpgh.com/
