Cape Town has established itself as a renowned culinary destination, offering a diverse range of high-quality dishes and innovative culinary creations. Recently, the city has seen a surge in popularity of food trucks, which have captured the attention of foodies with their refined dishes and scrumptious street food.
While food trucks are not a new phenomenon, they have recently gained unprecedented popularity in Cape Town. In the past, finding these mobile eateries could be an adventure in itself, as their locations changed daily. However, food lovers can now rejoice in the establishment of Food Truck Valley, a semi-permanent gathering spot for these mobile culinary marvels.
Located at N1 City, opposite McDonald’s in Goodwood, Food Truck Valley offers an array of fully halaal food trucks, where both resident and special guest trucks serve their signature flavors. Open every weekend, visitors can savor their meals at the tables set up in the center of the parking lot, fully immersing themselves in the food truck experience.
Food Truck Valley is not only a feast for the taste buds but also a feast for the senses. Visitors can take in the sight of tantalizing dishes and food pictures, enjoy the rich aroma of various cuisines, and experience the excitement of deciding which delectable dish to try first.

Food Truck Highlights
KTG Grill House brings a fusion of flavors to the forefront, offering dishes like KTG Prawns and BBQ Ribs that have quickly become the talk of the town. They skillfully pivoted from their initial location to a food truck at Mr Smalls in Belgravia without skipping a beat, maintaining their culinary excellence on wheels. They sweeten the deal with a delivery service within a cozy radius and a thrilling ‘Good Thursday Madness’ promotion that’s hard to pass up.
SIBS has arguably perfected the art of taco creation, crafting bites that burst with flavors. While their culinary craftsmanship is top-tier, a slight revamp in packaging could propel their family takeout experience from great to exceptional.
