Local Legend Eats
Local Legend Eats is a food truck caterer rocking amazing street food combining different cuisine techniques and delivering more than just burgers and fries, or tacos & nachos. We bring authentic flavours, locally sourced ingredients and amazing service. We’re only a new business but have catered to a few big names such as Barfoot & Thompson, Williams Corporation, Red bull, Subaru, Nestle, Phillip Morris, Te Whatu Ora and others. A few of our customers were kind enough to leave great feedback in our Google profile.
Although we take part in a few public events our focus is private and corporate catering.
