Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Columbia Studio Set!
Whether you’re shooting a feature on Main Street, capturing b-roll along the Congaree, or filming a student project near the University of South Carolina, Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable studio catering in Columbia, SC. Our local team has years of on-set experience, so your meal breaks run on schedule and your cast and crew stay happy—no matter how demanding the shoot.
We partner with some of the Midlands’ favorite mobile kitchens to design rotating daily menus that keep things fresh and exciting. Imagine starting Monday with Lowcountry classics from Carolina Cookin', rolling into Tuesday with spicy Cajun comfort from Mardi Gras Tyme, and finishing the week with slow-smoked barbecue from RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering. Craving something sweet when you wrap at golden hour? Ken’s Famous Italian Ice will keep the crew cool, while The Haute Dog Lady serves up classic American comfort everyone loves.
From Five Points to the Vista, we’ll help you pick the best spot for service, set up streamlined online ordering and grab-and-go pickup, and verify that every vendor carries up-to-date city permits and insurance. You’ll get a clear cost breakdown that fits your production budget—no surprises, just great food.
Choosing food truck catering in Columbia isn’t just convenient; it’s eco-friendly too. Trucks cook to order, which means less food waste and fewer disposable containers cluttering your set. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics so you can focus on getting the perfect shot. When it comes to studio catering in Columbia, we’ve got you covered—lights, camera, lunchtime!
Fueling Columbia’s Small Businesses — and Your Shoot
Booking a food truck for your Columbia studio set isn’t just the easiest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s a direct investment in the Midlands’ small-business community. Most of the trucks that line Main Street during Soda City Market every Saturday are run by solo entrepreneurs and family teams who pour their savings, recipes, and Southern hospitality into every plate. When you call on them for on-set catering, dollars stay right here in Richland County, helping local owners hire staff, upgrade gear, and keep Columbia’s culinary scene “Famously Hot.”
Food trucks also fit perfectly with green production guidelines. Because meals are cooked to order inside an energy-efficient mobile kitchen, trucks consume far less power than a traditional commissary tent and leave behind minimal waste. Swap out single-use box lunches for reusable trays and watch your trash bags—and your carbon footprint—shrink.
So the next time you’re Googling “low-budget Columbia film catering near me,” skip the generic options and let Best Food Trucks roll onto set with a socially responsible, flavor-packed solution. Great food, greener shoots, stronger local economy—that’s a wrap!

Be attentive to ordering apps, so that food is ready in a fair amount of time. And, have To-Go packaging ready for safe transport.

Fresher ingredients. The tomatoes was kinda not fresh - like the skin was separating from the flesh. Maybe more veggies, as well. Overall it was good.
