Your food truck deserves a website that moves.

What should a food truck website include and how much does it cost?

Short answer: A food truck website needs a home page with today's location, a weekly schedule, a menu, a catering and private events page with an inquiry form, an about page, and a contact page. On We.Inc, the free plan builds up to 3 template sites with no AI, and AI building and editing starts on Starter at $20 a month with 250 credits. A custom domain costs about $10 to $20 a year.

Key facts

  • We.Inc's free plan allows up to 3 template sites published on a we.inc address with no AI included.
  • We.Inc's Starter plan costs $20 a month and includes 250 credits for AI building and editing, useful for weekly schedule updates.

Summary checked against this page on September 25, 2026.

A food truck website needs three things: where the truck will be this week, the menu, and a way to book it for private events. We.inc's AI builds those pages from a short description, or you can publish a free template with no AI. AI building and editing starts on Starter at $20 a month, which makes weekly schedule updates quick.

Pages every food truck website needs

Try this prompt

A website for Smoke Signal BBQ, a food truck in Austin, Texas. Pages for our weekly schedule at breweries and office parks, a menu with brisket, pulled pork, and sides, a catering page with an inquiry form for weddings and corporate events, and our story. Bold, smoky look with black, rust orange, and cream.

A real food truck site, not a template

This is Smoke Line BBQ Truck, a food truck business we described to the AI in a sentence. Every service, price and line of copy on it was written for that business. See the Smoke Line BBQ Truck example site.

Who this food truck website design suits

What makes a food truck website work

Make the schedule easy to update

Your weekly stops change constantly. Ask the AI to replace the week in one message, and link your Instagram for day-of changes like weather cancellations.

Catering inquiries need the right questions

Ask for date, start time, headcount, address, and whether power and parking are available on site. It saves back-and-forth and filters out events the truck cannot physically serve.

Permits follow you from city to city

Mobile food vending needs health permits and often separate city or county licenses. Rules differ widely, so check with each local health department before listing a new stop.

Window orders still run on your POS

The AI can add a catering deposit page that charges through your own Stripe account, but we.inc is not a POS and does not run the order line at the truck. Keep Square or Toast for window and pre-orders, and link its order page.

What it costs

Free covers up to three template sites on a we.inc address, no AI included. Starter at $20 a month is the practical choice if you update your schedule weekly by asking the AI. A domain of your own (about $10 to $20 a year) works on paid plans.

The free plan lets you build up to 3 sites from templates and publish them free on a we.inc address. It has no AI. Building and editing with AI starts on Starter at $20 a month with 250 credits.

Frequently asked questions

Do food trucks really need a website?

Social media handles day-of updates, but event planners and caterers look for a real site with a menu and an inquiry form. It makes booking you for events much easier.

How do I show where my truck is each day?

Keep a weekly schedule page with days, times, and addresses. On a paid plan you can ask the AI to swap in next week's stops in one message.

Can customers pre-order from my site?

Pre-orders that go to the truck window should come through your POS, since we.inc does not connect to one. Link your Square or Toast pre-order page and put the button next to your menu.

How much does a food truck website cost?

You can start at $0 with templates on a we.inc address. AI help costs $20 a month on Starter, and a custom domain adds roughly $10 to $20 a year.

Can I take catering deposits?

Yes. The AI can build a deposit page with checkout through your own Stripe account, linked from your catering inquiry form.

Food truck website designs, compared on "where are you today?"

A food truck site answers two things: where the truck is and what is on the menu before it sells out, then books events. Below, five sample sites and a template, each read for brisket by the pound, a two meat plate and ribs.

How these were picked

Food truck, truck catering, barbecue, caterer and cafe samples from our library plus the ROAM food truck template. Smoke Line BBQ Truck is the demonstration; its prices, cook and reviews are made up. Checked 27 September 2026. Every design here is from the We.Inc library and is labelled as a sample or template. None is a customer site, and no entry claims results.

1. Smoke Line BBQ Truck

Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it

Task: Someone deciding whether to drive over before it sells out.

Design choice: "Today's location" is the first button and the menu is priced: brisket $29/lb, two meat plate $24, ribs $26/lb. The FAQ says brisket usually goes between 1 and 2pm.

Limitation: The day's location is posted elsewhere first. Put a "Today" block at the top of the homepage and update it daily.

2. Smokestack Rolling Kitchen

Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it

Task: An event host getting a catering quote.

Design choice: "Get a quote" with two and three meat packages and an FAQ on serving speed and deposits.

Design choice: "See today's board" and "Can I call ahead and reserve brisket?" in the FAQ.

Limitation: A fixed restaurant; no truck schedule.

4. Copper Table Catering

Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it

Task: An office booking lunch.

Design choice: "Request a proposal" with drop-off lunch and a headcount deadline FAQ.

Limitation: Formal catering tone.

5. Marigold Street Cafe

Sample site built by our AI (made-up business). Open it

Task: A daily menu with pickup ordering.

Design choice: "See the menu" and "Order pickup" with every item priced.

Limitation: Fixed address, no barbecue.

6. ROAM

Restaurant template from the We.Inc library. Open it

Task: A truck that wants the location block built in.

Design choice: ROAM: "Smoke, fire, and a line down the block", with Find the truck, Our story and Find us today.

Limitation: No priced menu by default; add yours.

Walkthrough: a lunch customer on the Smoke Line sample

  1. They land on "Brisket goes on at 10pm. Gone by 2pm." with "Today's location" and "Book the truck".
  2. "Sold by the pound, the plate or the whole truck" gives brisket at $29 a pound and a two meat plate at $24.
  3. "Common questions" answers where the truck is parked, when it sells out, catering and vegetarian options.
  4. "Book the truck or find us" closes the page. Edit prompt: "Add a Today block at the top with location, hours and a sold-out note, and a weekly schedule table."

Questions

Where are you parked today?

Put the answer at the top of the homepage and keep a weekly schedule below it. It is the question most visitors come with.

What time do you sell out?

Give a typical time and whether people can call ahead to hold an order. The sample says brisket usually goes between 1 and 2pm on Saturdays.
