Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Columbia Studio Set

Whether your cameras are rolling in the Congaree Vista, Five Points, or out by Lake Murray, Best Food Trucks delivers the premier food truck catering Columbia studios rely on. After years of feeding crews at SCETV, indie shoots on Main Street, and commercials filmed near the State House, we know exactly how to keep meal breaks tight, tasty, and on budget.

We create rotating menus that excite cast and crew day after day. Picture Southern comfort plates from Carolina Cookin', New-Orleans heat courtesy of Mardi Gras Tyme, island flavors from T&J's Deliciousness, cool downs with Ken's Famous Italian Ice, and bistro favorites from Buck n Cluck. Every truck is fully permitted, fully insured, and ready to roll up wherever your base camp lands.

Our concierge team scouts the best parking spot, streamlines mobile ordering and pickup, and provides a clear cost analysis so producers can track every dollar. Choosing food truck catering for your Columbia studio means less food waste, fewer disposable trays, and happier crews—just like the locals enjoy at Soda City’s Food Truck Fridays.

Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime while you focus on nailing the next scene. From dawn-patrol call times to golden-hour wraps, we’ll keep Columbia’s film community well fed and ready for action.

24-Hour Production Catering catering

Fueling Columbia’s Creative Economy

Booking a food truck for your film shoot isn’t just the tastiest call sheet note of the day—it’s a direct investment in Columbia’s small-business community. Most of the trucks we schedule for studio catering are run by Midlands families: think mom-and-pop outfits like Bourbon Street Cajun from West Columbia or the husband-and-wife team behind Rambo’s Fat Cat Biscuits you’ve seen at Soda City Market. Every time you roll cameras and they roll up, production dollars stay right here along the Riverbanks, helping local owners pay crews, upgrade kitchens, and keep the Vista’s food scene vibrant.

Food truck catering is also a greener choice for Columbia studios. Trucks operate on compact, energy-efficient kitchens and, with our optional composting partnership through Richland County’s Green Business Program, we can divert food scraps from the landfill—something traditional buffet lines on disposable trays just can’t match.

So when the location scout locks a spot on Devine Street or your indie short sets up near the historic Arsenal Hill, skip the chafing dishes. Search “studio food truck catering Columbia,” tap Best Food Trucks, and serve meals that satisfy your cast while supporting the local economy and the planet. That’s a wrap everyone can cheer for!

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

Cold brew and Shaken espresso were good but a bit acidic. They definitely need a syrup or sweetener to balance the flavor

We loved the chicken in the Torta and taco bowl. The green sauce is also very tasty. The churros and Nutella dip were also served hot and fresh. Overall very satisfied.

The bottom bun where the meat was put on top of was completely mush. Had to just eat it with a fork but it was very tasty!

Food was pretty good. People seemed to like the BBQ nachos. The wait time was a little long.

Michael was fantastic! He was on time, his set up was easy and clean, and he was hilarious (all our guests loved him!). The food was great and there were plenty of choices, so something for everyone's taste (I had guests who were both gluten and dairy free, so this was great!). The portion sizes were also very generous, no one left hungry! Highly recommend!

Portions were back to normal and the food was so good this time around. Been a while since I last got food at the truck but I try to get them every time I come around. Last time disappointed me a tiny bit but this time they blew it out the park. Thank you so much, look forward to the truck coming back on the 14th!
