2017 Food Trucktoberfest at Monmouth Park Racetrack

One of the biggest benefits of food trucks is that they’re not set in one location so you can find them in a variety of places, such as at Food Trucktoberfest at Monmouth Park Racetrack in Oceanport, New Jersey, on September 9. It’s the perfect last summer food hurrah before the colder weather starts to make its approach, and a great opportunity to get together with loved ones and chow down on some incredible food. The best part is that you get to experience several different eateries all in one spot. Ready to find out a little more about Food Trucktoberfest before you go?
