Melbourne Toasties, Sandwiches & Food Truck Catering FAQs
-
Looking for some of the best toasties in Melbourne, an epic Melbourne sandwich, or a food truck for your next event?
Welcome to Toasted Truck & Deli.
We’re a Melbourne-born toastie shop and food truck specialising in big, flavour-packed toasted sandwiches and high-volume event catering.
From our Moorabbin deli to corporate lunches, university events, private parties, engagements, birthdays, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, festivals and brand activations across Melbourne and Victoria, our goal is pretty simple:
Make seriously good sandwiches and feed a lot of people really well.
Here are the questions we get asked most often.
-
You’ll find Toasted Truck & Deli at 157 Chesterville Road, Moorabbin, in Melbourne’s south-east.
We specialise in loaded, made-to-order toasties built around slow-cooked meats, house-made fillings, plenty of cheese and proper sourdough.
If you’re searching for the best toasties in Melbourne, come hungry.
Our menu includes signatures such as our viral Beef Birria Toastie, Nonna’s Bolognese, Reubano and Melbourne Truffle, alongside rotating specials.
-
We treat a toasted sandwich like a proper hero item rather than an afterthought.
Think slow-braised beef, seven-hour ragu, pastrami, house-made sauces, pickles, salsa verde, caramelised onions, mushrooms, truffle and plenty of melted cheese, all pressed between sourdough until crisp.
A lot of our fillings are made using the same techniques you’d normally expect from a restaurant kitchen — they just happen to end up between two pieces of bread.
-
We certainly think we belong in the conversation.
Our focus is hot, toasted sandwiches with serious fillings, combining classic deli sandwiches with flavours you wouldn't normally expect to find in a toastie.
If you’re searching for Melbourne's best sandwiches, toasted sandwiches, gourmet toasties or loaded sandwiches, our Moorabbin deli is a very good place to start.
-
Some of our biggest favourites include:
Beef Birria — slow-braised brisket, salsa verde, cheese, pickled onions and beef consommé for dipping.
Nonna’s Bolognese — slow-cooked beef ragu, cheese, sourdough, basil oil and parmesan.
Reubano — pastrami, mojo mustard, pickles, pickled onions and melted cheese.
Melbourne Truffle — mushrooms, caramelised onions, confit garlic, truffle, cheese and chilli.
The menu changes from time to time, so there’s usually something new cooking too.

Toasted Truck & Deli provides food truck catering throughout Melbourne and Victoria for corporate events, universities, private celebrations, birthdays, engagements, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, brand activations, festivals and large public events.
Our food truck is designed to serve high-quality food quickly, making it particularly suited to events where large numbers of guests need to be fed within a defined service window.
Instead of generic event catering, your guests get hot toasties cooked and served fresh.
-
We cater across Melbourne, metropolitan Melbourne and throughout Victoria depending on the event.
We regularly travel beyond our Moorabbin base for private, corporate, university and major event catering.

We can cater everything from an office lunch to events involving hundreds of employees.

A food truck turns lunch into part of the event.
Rather than putting trays of sandwiches on a table, Toasted creates a live food experience where your team receives a freshly toasted, hot meal straight from the truck.
It’s casual enough for a staff lunch but memorable enough for a major corporate event.
It also makes catering large groups easier because service can be planned around your workforce, breaks and event schedule.

If you're organising a large Melbourne corporate event, tell us your expected attendance and service window and we'll recommend the best setup.

Corporate catering can be arranged as a prepaid package so employees or guests don't need to purchase individually.

-

The truck arrives as both the kitchen and part of the entertainment, and your guests can order freshly cooked toasties during the agreed service period.
It’s an easy way to feed a crowd without turning your kitchen into a catering operation.
-
