Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Columbia, SC
From Gamecock football tailgates around Williams-Brice Stadium to massive concerts on the State House grounds, Columbia knows how to throw a party. When you’re planning a large scale event in Columbia, great food is just as important as great entertainment. That’s why planners across the Midlands are choosing food truck catering instead of old-school tent vendors.
Unlike temporary tents that need extra permits, rented equipment, and hours of set-up, modern food trucks roll in with fully licensed kitchens, self-contained power, and menus ready to serve guests fast. Whether you’re hosting Soda City Market after-hours, a festival at Riverfront Park, or a corporate retreat out by Lake Murray, Columbia food truck catering keeps crowds happy and lines moving.
Best Food Trucks partners with an incredible lineup of local favorites to give your attendees the variety they expect. Want Southern seafood that tastes like it came straight off the Carolina coast? Book Carolina Cookin'. Craving a little Cajun heat to spice up your concert or 5K? Invite Mardi Gras Tyme. If smoky pulled pork and ribs sound like the perfect fit for your outdoor festival, RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering delivers award-winning barbecue. Cool everyone down with a cup of Ken's Famous Italian Ice, then add classic comfort food from The Haute Dog Lady to round out the menu.
No matter the size of your crowd—5,000 people at the South Carolina State Fair or 500 coworkers at the Colonial Life Arena—Best Food Trucks coordinates multiple trucks, point-of-sale systems, and service windows so your guests spend less time waiting and more time enjoying the “Famously Hot” Columbia vibe. Let us show you why we’re the go-to choice for large scale event catering in Columbia.
Skip the Line and Savor More of Columbia’s Biggest Events
Nothing kills “Famously Hot” energy faster than a long food line. With Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform, your guests at the South Carolina State Fair, a Vista Lights street party, or a Gamecock watch-party outside Williams-Brice can place their orders right from their phones. They’ll get a text the moment their ribs, tacos, or pimento-cheese sliders are ready, so they can keep cheering, shopping, or dancing instead of standing in a queue.
Planning ahead? Send out a pre-order link before gates open and let vendors know exactly when hungry fans will swing by the truck window. Our system is built to handle the surge that comes with large-scale food truck catering in Columbia, smoothly processing thousands of orders per hour without a hiccup. Food trucks for large events plus real-time online ordering means your attendees stay focused on the fun while still enjoying the Midlands’ best eats.

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.

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
