Almost two dozen diverse mobile food vendors will be descending on the Peninsula City on Saturday as Bayonne’s 4th Annual Food Truck Festival will be taking over several blocks along Avenue E.

“We look forward to welcoming the food truck festival back to Avenue E,” said Davis in a statement. “This great event will offer people a day to try cuisine from the best food trucks in the region. We look forward to people to the celebration of spring and to see how great Bayonne is.”
