East Oakland, USA



Oakland is well known for its diverse array of food trucks. None more famous perhaps, than the original food truck: the taco truck.



While taco trucks might not be the actual original food trucks, they were the first in Oakland. (The origin of the food truck is traced back to 1866 cattle drivers who served meals out of “chuckwagons” to other herders.) The Fruitvale, especially along East 14th, has become the taco truck mecca of Oakland. Forget fine dining — taco trucks have it all. Burritos, tostadas, tortas, tacos or aguas frescas: your local truck has it.



We’ve created a map of the many taco trucks found in the Fruitvale. See if you can visit them all. Whether you prefer carnitas or fish, taco trucks are a part of the Oakland way of life.
