Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Charleston, SC

From a packed night at The Battery watching the RiverDogs to tens of thousands pouring over the Ravenel Bridge during the Cooper River Bridge Run, Charleston knows how to throw a party. The secret ingredient that keeps Lowcountry crowds smiling is great food, and nothing delivers it faster or fresher than a fleet of local food trucks. Modern food truck kitchens are fully self-contained, eliminating the extra permits, generators, and long build-outs that old-school tent vendors needed. That means you get shorter setup times, smaller footprints, and a lot more menu creativity—perfect for festivals, major sporting events, concerts at Riverfront Park, or even Spoleto Festival USA pop-ups.

Best Food Trucks specializes in coordinating multiple food trucks so your large-scale event attendees never wait long or walk far to find the eats they crave. We curate a balanced lineup—think savory, sweet, vegan, and gluten-free—so every guest leaves happy. Because we’re based right here in the Holy City, we already have relationships with the trucks locals rave about:

  • Wally Gyros LLC – A Charleston favorite since 2007, Wally brings bold Mediterranean flavors like shawarma and falafel straight from his family to your festival field.
  • Bangin' Vegan Eats – 100% plant-powered comfort food that even carnivores line up for—perfect for inclusive event menus.
  • Happy Thai Food Truck – Spicy curries and pad Thai made to order bring international flair to any Lowcountry gathering.
  • Fed Up Truck LLC – Southern comfort classics with a gourmet twist; think shrimp & grits or fried chicken sliders that scream Charleston.
  • Zimo's – Fresh, healthy Mediterranean eats inspired by New York street food and perfected right here in Charleston.

Whether you need ten trucks for a waterfront concert at Joe Riley Stadium or a curated trio for a corporate gathering at the Gaillard Center, Best Food Trucks delivers seamless, scalable food truck catering in Charleston. Reach out today, and let’s feed the Holy City together!

Swap Meet catering

Skip the line and savor the moment at your Charleston large-scale event

Charlestonians don’t queue if they don’t have to—especially when there’s live music on the Riverfront or a ninth-inning rally at The Joe. With Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system, your guests can tap a few buttons on their phones, stroll the concourse, and pick up their shrimp-roll or vegan po’ boy the second it’s ready. A quick text alert replaces the old-school “yell a name over the crowd” routine, so the focus stays on fireworks over the Ashley, not lines around the block.

Planning a Cooper River Bridge Run expo, a Citadel homecoming, or a packed night at Credit One Stadium? Send attendees a pre-order link days in advance and let them lock in a pickup time before the gates even open. Our platform is built for high-frequency ordering, meaning thousands of transactions an hour flow seamlessly—no bottlenecks, no frustrated foodies.

Food truck catering for large-scale events in Charleston plus Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering equals happy crowds, higher concession sales, and an event experience as smooth as sweet tea on a summer day.

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

: Not the style of teriyaki I anticipated. But overall the flavor was OK. Veggies and fried rice were quite good and the portion size was excellent.

I have visited this truck twice now, each time they didn't have an ingredient i wanted, but they've always suggested something in its place, both times I have been very pleased with the results, their pizza is TOP NOTCH, very delicious and satisfying

the lamb meat was excellent. I would have liked a little more vegetables, but overall it was excellent. I would eat there again and would try other options.
