They were set up near my daughter's karate dojo fundraising event. The owner is a super sweet lady from Trinidad - the country located northeast of the coast of South America. She came to New Mexico Junior College to run on the cross country & track teams. Now she coaches there. Has a family here. And is a "boss babe." I thoroughly enjoyed the jerk chicken tacos. It was three tacos with very fresh toppings of cabbage, cilantro, onions, a jerk sauce that was only mildly spicy for me, and limes. The only drawback was a bone I found in one of my tacos. Other menu items included: Fried chicken ($13) Kids fried chicken ($6) Water, Pepsi, Coca-Cola or Sprite = $1 To find out where their next event will be, check out: https://www.facebook.com/TRINILOVislandcuisine?mibextid=LQQJ4d RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Price: 4

Pandita Express or "Delights Chinesse [sic] Food LLC" as their business card said on March 17, 2026…read moreis one of the best food trailers in Hobbs, NM. They offer Chinese and Japanese fare. A second trailer just like is on the Lovington Highway near Green Meadows Park. I always go for the #15 shrimp fried rice ($14). Their fried rice is the best in town. The amount of shrimp is fairly decent. I came kind of an off hour at close to 3 PM, so the food probably wasn't the freshest, but it was still really tasty. The shrimp is a bit overcooked. Takeout boxes come with an egg roll, fork, napkins, and condiments. Service is always fantastic. The guy who was at this trailer is often at the Pandita Express #2 trailer. He speaks both Spanish and English. So here's how it works here: Order. Pay. You'll be assigned a buzzer. Food usually is prepared very quickly. Perfect for my hangry butt.

Pandita Express #2 is my new favorite food trailer in Hobbs, NM…read more I drove down to place an order on the early evening of July 13, 2025. They offer Chinese and Japanese fare. I opted for the #15 shrimp fried rice ($13). Their fried rice is mouthwatering delicious. Beneath all my rice was even more shrimp. I didn't count them, but it was more than I could handle in one setting. They really loaded my takeout box! It also came with an egg roll, fork, napkins, and condiments. So appreciated. My daughters' great grandmother on their dad's side used to make me egg foo young. This outfit makes it too! Might have to try theirs for nostalgia as I never make it at home. Awesome service. Order. Pay. They assign you a handheld buzzer. My food came out in less than the estimated 5 minutes. The only thing I would change is to add prices to their menu. Huge fan! TIP - from "7 PM onwards" they accept cash only RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4

Juice Wrld (yes, it's spelled like that) is my new favorite food trailer in Hobbs, NM…read more This mobile juice bar offers smoothies, acai bowls, pressed juices, juice shots, juicy bites (juicy fries, loaded rice cakes, and cucumber chips). Their prices range from $4-$13 per item. Recently Ms. Becky of Salty Frog (a boutique and gift shop) announced on social media that Juice Wrld would be a permanent fixture in front of her shop. Shout out to the amazing Becky! After science camp, I took my oldest daughter. We both tried a bowl ($12 each). She opted for match as her base, granola and chia seeds for toppings, strawberry and kiwi, and honey drizzle. It was good, but the matcha is not really all that sweet. My bowl went like this: coconut base, chia seeds and white chocolate chips, pineapple and raspberries - all drizzled in agave. This was super yummy and much sweeter than hers! Cash is accepted. Try them out on Dal Paso or at a event nearby. Follow them on Instagram to find out where they'll be next: @__yourjuicewrld_ RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4

Brown Bag BBQ in Hobbs, NM, is actually a food trailer, not a food truck. This makes a difference…read moreto me because I personally think trailers are more economical and readily available to meet demands when lines get long and food starts to get low. It's just a theory, though. Throughout the years since I have been back in this small dusty town, I have seen this big reddish trailer set up at various events. The most recent place I had their barbeque was at a karate event. It's good BBQ, however, I prefer my brisket to be more on the tender and smokey side, though. Their brisket is on the mild smokey, but it lacked that juicy and tenderness I craved. (It's probably because we got to the trailer towards the end of the event.) I thought my small brisket sandwich was going to come with at least a cup of bbq sauce plus a scoop of potato salad and beans, but I only got pickles and sliced onions. Lol. That's a bit pricey for $10. My daughter had brisket nachos that came with lots of melted cheese, some diced red onions, and sour cream drizzled over it. She shared with me because I was still quite hungry. The employees were friendly and welcoming at the window. It sure does take a while longer than I anticipated to get orders, though.

Curry Bites is usually set up at the farmers market in Hobbs at Green Meadows Park…read more The owner clarified that they are usually set up under a canopy. They do not have a food truck or trailer. My chance finally came, but all the vendors at the farmers market got rained out on July 12, 2025. Since I followed them on Facebook I found out that they were still offering plates, but the pick up had been arranged at an alternative place of business. I was game! On that day, they had the following available: + paneer butter masala + lentil curry + samosas A plate of paneer butter masala was $15. I knew right away that this was going to be a very mild mildly spicy dish. It actually had a bit of sweetness to it, but my favorite part was how creamy it was. There were a few chunks of chicken served with Basmati rice. Some naan cut in half was also included. This was perfect for my appetite, but if I were absolutely famished, I would probably order another side dish or appetizer. The owner asked that I let her know how it was and if I wanted her to make me a special dish, she would be more than happy to do so. How awesome is that?! I definitely want to find out what white curry tastes like because I don't think I've ever had it not even after living in the LA area all that time. Then again, I might ask for something much spicier! RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: N/A | Price: 4

They have had a food truck set up mostly on the Lovington Highway for well over a year now. I'm so excited that they established deeper roots in Hobbs, NM. I knew right away that I needed coffee & had just seen on Instagram that they had a limited time "fresh pumpkin brown sugar" latte. I ordered a 24 ounce iced version of this homemade concoction ($6.25). Its creaminess was luscious without being overly sweet. My medium club salad ($9) was really good. I just didn't like the bacon that tasted like & looked exactly like the microwavable stuff. The decor was super posh. The gender neutral restroom was clean. The owner was as nice as I remember her from a year ago. She stated that their grand opening will be soon, but further details weren't available. It will be Saturday, October 7, 2023 @ 11AM. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. TIP Don't forget to ask for a loyalty punch card if they don't offer one to you. Ladies... here's some grown a$$ woman advice: Don't talk sh!t about your man to "your girls" at the cafe. Y'all sound pathetic & immature when you talk about how "he wanted to talk to me as soon as I got outta the shower... ugh, he gets on my nerves."
