Very simple and easy to use plugin that displays upcoming events making it easy for customers to locate the food truck without unnecessary clicks. Plugin author is very receptive to feedback and improving the plugin.

Haven’t reviewed a plugin in a long time but thought I’d make an exception, All we needed was a simple timetable with location for our stops that was easy to update on an on-going basis for our assistant manager. Not only did this plugin feel fast, we didn’t even need our developer to style anything before appearing on our site! Would have happily payed for this, so, thanks a ton! – Craig
