Food trucks are back!

Every weekday during the academic year, food trucks serve delicious street food for the Stanford community.

The start of a new academic year means food trucks are back on campus, bringing with them lots of tasty street food for hungry Cardinal.

Each weekday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. – excluding holidays, summer quarter and academic breaks – two food trucks park at the corner of Via Ortega and South Service Road, outside Y2E2. There you’ll find students and postdocs among those lined up to order street food from local vendors. (Don’t worry, the service is usually pretty fast!) If you’re new to Stanford, be sure to bookmark the food truck schedule.

From poke bowls to lobster rolls, here’s a look at some of what they serve.
