Venues & Event Locations
Oakwood Park draws a neighborhood crowd that knows good food when it finds it, and a well-run smoker truck parked near the pavilion tends to become the center of gravity. Lincoln Park's broad green accommodates the kind of sprawling gatherings where brisket and ribs disappear fast. Down at Lakeside Landing Park, the pace slows just enough that people come back for seconds — and at Amherst City Hall events, a serious BBQ spread signals that the occasion is worth the trip.
Ohio has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Ohio jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Amherst.

John
Food Truck Booking Agent
Energetic coordination and strong vendor communication from someone who has worked across 13 trucks.
Big BBQ events live or die on service speed, permitting, parking, COIs, and timing, and John built his eye for matching the right concept to the right crowd across Los Angeles, Denver, Miami, and Ontario, CA. He once talked a stranded driver through a highway breakdown — a blown radiator hose on the way to an Ontario event — arranging a replacement truck so the trailer still rolled in on time, a save that brought the client back the following year. His take on planning a smoky BBQ service that feeds a real crowd: guest count, service speed, setup style, and budget matter just as much as the menu.
- Worked across 13 different food trucks since 2020
- Responsive vendor communication and coordination focus
John will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
