Large-Scale Food Truck Catering in Columbia, SC

From spring festivals on Main Street to Gamecock football tailgates outside Williams-Brice Stadium, Columbia knows how to throw a party. What every great Midlands gathering has in common is mouth-watering food that keeps the crowd happy. Modern food trucks make large-scale event catering in Columbia faster, cleaner, and far more exciting than the old pop-up tents that required extra permits and hours of setup.

Best Food Trucks partners with the city’s favorite mobile kitchens to bring fully self-contained commercial kitchens right to the State House steps, Lake Murray marinas, or the shaded lawns of the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center. Your guests can stroll the grounds and choose the cuisine that speaks to them, all without you having to juggle multiple vendors or power hookups.

Need Lowcountry seafood? Invite Carolina Cookin' to serve soft-shell crab over stone-ground grits. Want some Cajun heat for a Riverwalk music fest? Mardi Gras Tyme will spice things up with jambalaya and red beans & rice. Nothing says South Carolina summer like smoky barbecue from RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering, while The Haute Dog Lady dishes out creative comfort dogs perfect for a family-friendly event in Five Points. Finish it all off with a cup of frosty sweetness from Ken's Famous Italian Ice as you watch the sunset over the Congaree.

No matter if you're planning a 5,000-person corporate picnic, a downtown Soda City block party, or a regional sports tournament, Best Food Trucks will curate the ideal lineup and handle all logistics—permits, POS systems, staffing, and service flow. Contact us today for Columbia’s most reliable large-scale food truck catering and let’s make your next event the talk of the Midlands.

We tried the sandwiches with bacon jam for the first time. The burger and chicken sandwiches were delicious!!! We tend to order the grilled cheese burger and the chicken bacon club. Now I won't know which sandwich to order next time!😁

I ordered the Cuban sandwich without mustard but it came loaded with mustard. The sandwich was cooked perfectly and the pork was delicious but had way to much mustard. Otherwise I would’ve given 5 stars in lieu of 4. 😊 The pulled pork sandwich was delicious.

Tacos El Poblanito did an excellent job catering my client’s picnic. They kept in constant communication throughout the day, which made everything run smoothly. My client said the food was delicious, and the guests all enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend them!

Pizza was still warm when I picked it up and had so much flavor. First time trying the veggie, it's a new fav.

Way too much sauce in the esquite that made it resemble more of a soup. I dumped out half the sauce so I could enjoy the corn more, but everything had good flavor.

The food, service, and support were incredible. They were so good that we wanted to add another day of rental for the next day at our production, but they were already booked. Will definitely work with them again.

Our employees loved the food truck and they were prompt and had enough food for both our day and night shift team members. The food was delicious. We would definitely use them again for future events.

I had the pork arepas and they were delicious! I also heard good reviews from our guests about the Cuban sandwich, empanadas, and mango street tacos too. It was very easy working with the owners and they did a great job of feeding our guests in a timely/orderly manner! I would definitely recommend their food truck to others.

Placed order at 520 for 530 opening. At 535 received a text saying order confirmed, ready in 20 min. At 555 (20 min later) received another text that it would be another 15 min. Too long to wait for a preorder. I also paid $1 extra for sauerkraut and did t get any. I also selected 2 different flavors of pierogis and only got 1. The food was good but the wait and incorrect order was frustrating
