Let’s be real: Indy’s food truck scene has been on a roll — but it’s also tough to keep up with all of these eateries wheeling around. (We’re still looking forward to the idea of a food truck park).

Luckily, taste-testing food trucks is one of our unofficial hobbies, so we’ve got all the delectable details on 11 mobile eateries around town, plus advice on how to track them down.

Note: We always recommend checking online to confirm locations before heading out, as these details can be rather fluid.

Paco’s Taqueria

This popular local taco joint has storefront locations at 4390 N Keystone Ave. + 5202 E. Thompson Rd. but you can also snag some street tacos on wheels. Most recently, the business shared that its truck will be parked outside its newest location opening soon in Carmel.

Chomp’z Truck

This truck has something for everyone — from tacos to burgers. It has been wheeling around Indy since 2016 + caters at parties, business lunches, breweries, and other events. You can keep up with Chomp’z on Facebook.

Indy Sakura Express

Indy Sakura Express is the food truck version of the Sakura Express restaurant at 7201 N. Keystone Ave. and serves up the same high quality and delicious Japanese cuisine. Try the Japanese curry, takoyaki, or Japanese style fried chicken.

Books, Bourbon, and Bacon

Birrieria Iturbidense

Pi Indy

This unique food truck has one side of the food truck that allows patrons to see them cook up the wood-fired pizza right from their truck. You can create your own or choose from its specials which include the Figgy Piggy and Corn Pi. Pair your pizza with breadsticks and you are good to go.

That Vegan Joint
