Where to find food trucks in Orlando

Most Orlando food trucks move around, so the most reliable way to eat at one is to know where they gather. The A La Cart lot in the Milk District is a permanent food truck park and home base for Smoke & Donuts, with seating and a bar. Weekend farmers markets at Lake Eola in downtown Orlando and on Plant Street in Winter Garden also draw trucks, and reviewers have spotted The Crepe Company at both.

For roaming trucks like Monsta Lobsta and Treehouse Truck, check their social pages or websites for the week's stops before you drive across town. Breweries, office parks and neighborhood events are common hosts. Seasonal festivals and outdoor concerts around Orange County also bring big groups of trucks together, which is a good way to sample several in one evening without chasing schedules.

What to order from Orlando food trucks

At Smoke & Donuts, start with the Lou Donut, a cake donut topped with brisket burnt ends, then add smashed potatoes or lager mac and cheese. At Treehouse Truck, the smash burger can be made into a New York chopped cheese, and the truffle fries are worth the upgrade.

Monsta Lobsta keeps things simple with Maine lobster rolls, and The Crepe Company lets you go sweet or savory. Tamale Co. is best ordered ahead online so your tamales are ready when you arrive. If you are sharing with a group, order a few different things from each truck and split them, which is the best way to cover a food truck lot in one visit.

Tips for food trucks in Orlando

Summer heat and afternoon storms are the main hazards. From June through September, plan for evening visits and keep an eye on the radar, since trucks may close early when lightning rolls in. Bring a hat and water if you will be eating outdoors. Cooler months from November through March are the best season for food truck lots and market visits, when long lines are far more pleasant.

Hours are shorter than restaurants and popular items sell out, so arrive near opening. Most trucks also cater, which is a fun option for parties, weddings and office events: Treehouse Truck, Monsta Lobsta and The Crepe Company all book private events.
