Food concession trailers seem like a practical option for serving food at events, festivals, markets, and roadside locations, especially because of their mobility and lower overhead compared to traditional restaurants. They offer built-in cooking, storage, and serving facilities and can be adapted for different cuisines, from coffee and desserts to full hot food menus.
For those who have experience with this format, what do you consider the most important factors when choosing a food concession trailer? Is it layout, durability, energy systems, or ease of maintenance? I’ve been looking at available options in Washington and came across this page https://goldenstatetrailers.com/food-trailers/washington/tacoma-wa/, which got me thinking about how much customization really matters in practice.
I’d be interested to hear real experiences and advice from people who have operated or purchased food concession trailers.
