11 Best Food Trucks near Thompsons Station

“If you’re looking for food that will rock your world and your blood pressure, look no further than the Salsa Food Truck. We hired them to cater my son’s rehearsal dinner, and while the carnitas tacos were nothing short of a religious experience—seriously, I’m still dreaming about them—the road to taco nirvana was paved with pure chaos.

Olga, one of the owners, is… let’s just say “spirited.” She called me two hours before the event asking what day and where it was happening—despite the fact that I had given her that info months ago, and again four days before. At one point, I wasn’t sure if she was coming to cater a wedding or just trying to find her way to a taco dimension of her own.

But the food? Oh, the food. Worth every frantic phone call and spike in cortisol. The carnitas tacos were life-changing. I would almost go through it all again just to have another bite.

So, if you’re okay with a little bit of logistical roulette and a lot of incredible flavor, Salsa Food Truck is your go-to. Just bring your appetite—and maybe a calming tea. 🌮💃🔥“

“I tried Tiny Little Donuts for the first time on my birthday, coincidentally, also National Donut Day! They were hot and fresh, even after being in the car a few minutes after my dad picked them up and brought them home. The donuts just melt in your mouth and are just absolute perfection! 10/10 would recommend! Definitely will be checking out again when I'm up at my parents' house! Thank you for making my birthday even sweeter!“

“I came here today since I was in the neighborhood. So glad I did! The workers were friendly and genuine. They were patient as I tried to decide which drink to get. They have a unique selection of drinks and blends I have never heard before. Even though I'm not much of a coffee drinker, they have a wide selection of non-coffee. I got the chai smoothie which was like a chai frappe. It was so good, I shared it with my friend. It wasn't until after I ordered my drink that I noticed the scriptures on the wall. It is always a delight and warms my heart to meet other Christians and definitely explains why this place felt set apart in the best way possible. The love of Jesus is definitely shown by their quality of work and attentiveness towards their customers. God bless you all!“

“Love the cause! Thank you“

“Beach Co. Chill Shaved Ice is an absolute must-visit! From the moment you walk up, the vibe is fun, relaxed, and perfect for cooling off. The shaved ice is incredibly soft and fluffy—nothing like the crunchy kind you get elsewhere—and the flavors are vibrant, refreshing, and taste amazing.

They offer a great variety of flavors and toppings, so there’s something for everyone. The staff is super friendly and patient, especially if you take a while deciding (because there are so many good options!). Everything felt clean, well-kept, and thoughtfully put together.

One of the coolest surprises is that they also have a shop with live plants, which adds such a unique and charming touch to the whole experience!

Whether you’re stopping by for a quick treat or bringing the whole family, this place delivers every time. Definitely one of the best shaved ice spots around—I’ll be coming back again and again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Pastor tacos are very good and authentic! Had seen the truck on Columbia Ave before and had hesitated to try, but stopped today… will definitely stop again when in the area.“

“I've been on the hunt for the best street tacos in town, and I think I've finally found them. This little taco stand is tucked away in a corner of the city, but it's definitely worth seeking out. The carne asada tacos are my absolute favorite. The meat is perfectly grilled and seasoned, and the tortillas are warm and soft. The birria tacos are also amazing. The meat is so tender and flavorful, and the broth is rich and delicious. But what really sets these tacos apart is the attention to detail. The tortillas are made fresh every day, and the meat is cooked to perfection. The toppings are also perfectly balanced, and the salsas are homemade and flavorful. If you're looking for the best street tacos in town, look no further. This little taco stand is sure to satisfy your cravings. I’ve been visiting here since it opened in Franklin and I am happy to see it expand!“

“Great food and great atmosphere! This will definitely be a go to place when we are down this way!“

“I had an awesome experience at Music City Gyros. The vibe is welcoming from the moment you walk in, and the staff is incredibly friendly. They have a great selection, but the gyro stole the show hands down the best I’ve ever had. Fresh, flavorful, and at a very reasonable price. I’ll definitely be back.“
