Converse, TX Food Trucks & Mobile Vendors: Vending Zones (2026)

Vending zones for food trucks in Converse are defined functionally by zoning rather than as a single dedicated district. Mobile food units operate on private property zoned commercial, mixed-use, or industrial with property owner consent. Food trucks generally cannot vend in residential zones, from public streets or rights-of-way, in public parks (except with parks department permission for special events), or in school zones. Setbacks from drive aisles, fire hydrants, and building entrances are required; the truck cannot block required parking, ADA routes, or fire lanes. Temporary food vending at permitted community events such as city festivals is allowed under a special event permit obtained through City Hall. Some commercial property owners host recurring food truck parks or pop-ups under site plan approval. Signage (menu boards, A-frames) must be self-contained on the truck or within the host property's approved signage, not in the public right-of-way. Contact Converse Planning at (210) 658-5356 to confirm vending locations and event permits.
