2018 Food Truck Awards

Read full interviews with out winners here!

It takes a lot of drive to launch a truck, and determination to keep one running. To honor these efforts and the joy they bring to stomachs and taste buds throughout the region, we’ve worked with locally based, nationally deployed food truck tracker FoodTrucksIn.com to celebrate this distinctive culinary niche – a niche known for the cooperation between its members as well as for creating great food. Nearly 700 people voted for their favorite food trucks, and the results are in.

Here’s a video from the first year

The event is sponsored by National Sound Studio, Skyline, Providence Food Truck Events and Narragansett Beer. The Food Truck Awards were produced as a collaboration between Motif Magazine and Food Trucks In RI.
