Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Columbia
Columbia knows how to throw a party—whether it’s a Gamecock tailgate that takes over Williams-Brice Stadium, a concert on the City Hall lawn, or a craft-beer festival along the Congaree River. The secret ingredient that turns a good gathering into an unforgettable one is great food, and nothing delivers variety faster than food truck catering for large scale events in Columbia.
Unlike the old tent-and-table setups that need extra permits, generators, and hours of assembly, today’s food trucks roll in with fully self-contained commercial kitchens. That means quicker service, cleaner grounds, and happier crowds. From Riverbanks Zoo’s summer concerts to the bustling Soda City Market block parties, event planners rely on food truck catering to feed thousands without the hassle.
Best Food Trucks makes it easy. We coordinate multiple Columbia food truck vendors so every guest finds something to crave—gourmet seafood, barbecue, Cajun spice, and even icy desserts to beat the Midlands heat. Check out a few of the local favorites we can bring to your next big event:
- Carolina Cookin' – Southern-style gourmet seafood like soft-shell crab & grits that feels right at home in the Palmetto State.
- Mardi Gras Tyme – Authentic Cajun classics such as Creole jambalaya and red beans & rice that add a taste of the Big Easy to Columbia.
- Ken's Famous Italian Ice – Refreshing shaved-ice treats that keep guests cool during steamy Midlands afternoons.
- The Haute Dog Lady – Creative comfort-food hot dogs loaded with toppings perfect for families at Finlay Park movies.
- RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering – Slow-smoked barbecue that pairs perfectly with Columbia’s craft-beer festivals.
So if you’re planning a festival, corporate picnic, or sporting event and need reliable food truck catering for large scale events in Columbia, Best Food Trucks has you covered. We handle scheduling, permits, and on-site coordination so you can focus on the entertainment while your guests enjoy the best bites in town.

Best Food Trucks’ online ordering platform lets your guests place and pay for their meals right from their phones, then roam the concourse until a text says, “Your food is ready!” No more bottlenecks, just smooth flow and bigger smiles.

The food was hot and delicious! Egg rolls were fantastic and first time having the spicy Korean Chicken and it was great. My kids tried to eat all my fried rice so will definitely have to order more next time.

Fat Boys Food Truck catered our CEO’s 25th anniversary celebration, and they were fantastic from start to finish! The team was punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Our staff had great things to say about how delicious everything was — the food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We were pleasantly surprised by the variety of options; we were expecting just burgers but were thrilled to see chicken tenders, wraps, and salads as well. Everyone found something they loved! Thank you, Fat Boys, for helping make our event such a success. We’ll definitely keep you in mind for future celebrations!

Good size pizza, tasty pies. Cauliflower crust was good. Hard to have a hot pizza by the time we walked home.

It was a perfect combo of flavors with the right amount of spice and it had lots of chicken and veggies. (Spicy basil w/ rice)

Only suggestion is not to use aluminum foil wrapping before it's cut. There were small pieces of aluminum in the burrito, which is not good to eat.
