How to make a website for a food truck

The first question about a food truck is 'where will it be today?'. A small website shows your weekly parking spots and timings, the short menu you cook in the truck, and how to book the truck for a party, and sends people to your WhatsApp.

What people look for on a food truck website

Where the truck parks on each day of the week, with a Google Maps link for each spot
The hours at each spot, since evening and weekend timings often differ
The menu you cook in the truck, with prices, and which items are veg
What sells out early, so people know to come before 9
Whether the truck can come to a birthday, office event, college fest or society function, and the minimum guests
How to check if the truck is out today, for rain days and holidays
Photos of the truck itself, so people recognise it on the road

The pages your website needs

Home: What the truck serves in one line, this week's spots and timings, a photo of the truck and a WhatsApp button
Where to find us: Each weekday's parking spot with a landmark, the hours there and a Google Maps link
Menu: The full menu with prices, veg items marked, combos and the items that sell out first
Book the truck: Parties, office lunches and society events: minimum guests, a per-plate or fixed rate, how far the truck travels and notice needed
Contact: Phone, WhatsApp, the kitchen or base address if you have one, and how to check whether the truck is out today

Sample words for your home page

Loaded wraps and Korean-style fries, on wheels in Pune

Baner on weekdays, Koregaon Park on Saturday and Sunday. 6 PM to 11 PM, closed Monday.

Rolling Tawa is a food truck run by two brothers who cooked for hostel canteens before buying the truck in 2022. We make every wrap on the tawa in front of you. WhatsApp us to check where we are tonight or to bring the truck to your event.

Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

Decide the pages. Most food truck websites need these pages: Home, Where to find us, Menu, Book the truck, Contact.
Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.

Copy this request, change the details to match your food truck, and paste it into AppCub:

Make a website for my food truck, Rolling Tawa, in Pune. Pages: home, where to find us, menu, book the truck and contact. Tuesday to Friday we park near the Baner bus stop, 6 to 11 PM; Saturday and Sunday near the Koregaon Park lane market, 5 PM to midnight; closed Monday. Menu: paneer tikka wrap ₹160, chicken tawa wrap ₹190, loaded fries ₹140, cold coffee ₹90. Mark veg items. The truck comes to events within 15 km for 60 guests or more, at ₹250 per plate. WhatsApp 98XXXXXXXX. Yellow and black colours.

Tips for a food truck website

Keep the weekly spots on the home page; it is what people search for most often.
Ask AppCub to update the spots page as soon as your route changes, then publish again.
Tell people to check WhatsApp status on rain days or holidays; the website shows your regular plan, not today's news.
Photograph the truck with its name clearly visible, in the evening with the lights on, the way people will see it.
Show your FSSAI number on the contact page if you have one; event organisers often ask for it.
Make a free Google Business Profile with your base address and add the website link there.

Good to know

The website can't show the truck's live location or take event bookings and advances; people message you on WhatsApp. To track daily stock, sales by spot and event bookings with advances, a food truck app fits better.
The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

Can my food truck website show where the truck is right now?

No, it shows your regular weekly spots and timings. For changes on the day, post on WhatsApp status and ask people to message you before coming.

How do I change the parking spot on the website?

Ask in the chat, for example 'from next week we park near the Aundh bus depot on Thursday', and publish again.

Can people book the truck for a party from the website?

They send the request on WhatsApp from the book the truck page, with the date, place and number of guests. The website has no booking form.

Should I put event prices on the website?

A starting per-plate rate and the minimum number of guests help people decide to message you. Quote the final price on WhatsApp.

Can the menu show which items sell out?

Yes. Ask AppCub to mark items that usually sell out early, so people know to come sooner.

Will people find my truck on Google Maps?

A free Google Business Profile with your base address puts you on Maps. The website pages are made so Google can read them; where they appear is Google's decision.
