That's an interesting point. There are many people who feel more inclined to eat at food trucks than traditional restaurants, and here are a few reasons why:
- Price: Food trucks are cheaper (startup costs are much cheaper than for B&M).
- Convenience: Food trucks are often faster. In areas where there are fewer restaurants, and in food deserts, mobile businesses are sometimes the only good ones around.
- Pop Culture: In the past few years, food trucks have become more and more ingrained in our culture, and they have developed dedicated followings of repeat customers. It's cool to eat at food trucks, especially in areas where there are many! There are people who have specific food trucks they love - it's the same idea as having a favorite restaurant - except they want to know where their favorite trucks will be next. There are people who prefer specific food trucks over local restaurants.
So yes, there are a lot of perceived benefits. This article has more reasons: https://prestigefoodtrucks.com/2016/01/8-reasons-why-food-trucks-are-better-than-a-sit-down-restaurant-january-2016-blog-post/ https://prestigefoodtrucks.com/2016/01/8-reasons-why-food-tr...
- HWR_14 4y agoI don't feel that food trucks are often cheaper than B&M. In fact, my biggest reason for not going to them is that are often as expensive, but without the ability to sit down at table. And the food is frequently worse. I mean, yeah it's better than Burger King.
