Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Charlotte, NC

From college kickoffs at Jerry Richardson Stadium to summer concerts at PNC Music Pavilion, Charlotte knows how to put on a show—and locals expect memorable food while they celebrate. Traditional tent kitchens can’t keep up with the Queen City’s pace: they demand extra permits, bulky generators, and hours of setup on Mint Street before the gates even open.

Modern food trucks solve that problem. Each truck rolls in with a fully self-contained commercial kitchen that’s ready to serve the crowd the moment the tires stop. Best Food Trucks coordinates an entire fleet of Charlotte favorites, giving you turnkey food truck catering for large-scale events in Charlotte without the logistical headache.

Need homestyle comfort food for a festival at Romare Bearden Park? Invite Word Of Mouth Catering CLT or Krave Food Truck and watch the lines form. Planning a Tex-Mex tailgate outside Bank of America Stadium? Nacho Average Truck—the city’s first gourmet nacho truck—will be your MVP. Looking to wow guests at a NoDa block party? Tiger Yakitori grills Japanese skewers that pair perfectly with local craft brews, and Wheelz Pizza fires up pies that rival any sit-down spot in South End.

Whether you’re feeding 500 fans or 5,000 festival-goers, Best Food Trucks assembles the ideal mix of Charlotte food trucks, manages service windows, handles payment systems, and keeps the lines moving so your guests can get back to the music, game, or marathon they came for. Reach out today and discover why planners across Mecklenburg County call us the go-to caterers for large-scale events.

Skip the Line and Soak Up the Charlotte Vibe!

When you book large-scale event food truck catering in Charlotte through Best Food Trucks, guests don’t have to trade concert riffs or touchdown replays for time in a slow-moving line. Our cutting-edge online ordering platform lets hungry fans tap an order on their phones while they’re still cheering in the stands at Jerry Richardson Stadium or singing along at the PNC Music Pavilion. Moments later, a text alert tells them their smoked-brisket sandwich or pimento-cheese burger is ready for pickup—no waiting, no FOMO.

Hosting a 5K on Little Sugar Creek Greenway or a corporate outing at the NASCAR Hall of Fame Plaza? Send attendees a pre-order link in advance. They can choose a precise pickup window, breeze past the crowd, and dive right back into the action. Our system is engineered for Queen City-sized crowds, effortlessly processing thousands of simultaneous orders so every truck—whether it’s serving Carolina barbecue or South End-style artisanal pizza—keeps its window lines short and its griddles hot.

Pairing Charlotte’s favorite food trucks with real-time mobile ordering is the smartest way to spotlight your event while delivering unforgettable local flavors. Let Best Food Trucks handle the tech and the taste, and watch your attendees enjoy more of what brought them together in the first place.

Great time overall! Truck was on time, service was top tier & cooks were so nice, working very hard in the heat. Thank you!!

The food was VERY good. 1 of their fryers broke so it took almost 3 hours to get everyone thru the line which didn't make anyone happy. The quality of the food was great and quantity of food also but time was a turn off for most. They also did not show up to the event early enough to set up so they didn't start serving until about 20-25 mins after the set-up start time. Would hire again for smaller event.

All food was great. Boom boom shrimp was especially good. Cook was understaffed but did a remarkable job under pressure. Kudos.

Friendly, family like service and delicious pasta! I also appreciate the dressing for the Caesar salad being put on the side, so salad does not get soggy.

Amazing burgers and great value! True smash burger that gives that burger feel. Comeback sauce took it over the top 11/10

It was amazing! Loved the sauce and the chicken and how the chicken was prepared. Wish I had a few more veggies but otherwise loved it. Thanks

Papa Arepas was a big hit at my office. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, food ordering on their digital kiosk was easy and convenient, and the food was superb! We will definitely be having them back.

The listing should specify that addition of ranch in the boom boom wrap will come as a little container instead of being added into the wrap. Also, the wrap was cut with aluminum foil on it which resulted in fragments of aluminum in the wrap.
