Let’s be real—some of the best food in town isn’t coming from a kitchen with four walls. It’s rolling through the streets.

There are many food trucks in Huntsville, but these are our recs.

These trucks are some of my favorite places I’ve been to.

  • Nacho’s Mexican Food Truck: This spot has some of the best birria tacos in Huntsville. I love the atmosphere—just sitting by the truck, good music playing and great food.
    • Where: Off of University Dr. near MidCity
    • Facebook
  • Celia’s Kitchen – Mexican Food Truck: Quesadillas are one of my go-to comfort foods, and they seriously know how to make a good one. My friends and I love stopping by between classes—quick, fresh and it always hits the spot.
    • Where: the corner of University and Wynn Dr.
    • Facebook
  • Catrinas Mexican Food Truck: The carne asada takes me back to family cookouts—so good. Make sure to pair it with the pineapple agua fresca; it’s the perfect combo. This place is conveniently located near Providence, off University Drive.

  • Taste of Maine Lobster Shack & Food Truck: I’ve never been to Maine, but I feel like I’ve gotten a taste of it. The rolls, melt and everything in between are excellent. Plus, all of their seafood is imported straight from Maine.
