Hot, Customizable Studio Meals—Delivered Anywhere in Columbia!
When productions roll cameras in Columbia—whether on Main Street, at the historic South Carolina State House, or out by Lake Murray—timing is everything. Best Food Trucks specializes in studio food truck catering in Columbia, drawing on years of experience feeding film crews from USC’s Horseshoe to the soundstages near Fort Jackson. We design rotating, daily menus that keep your cast and crew energized, help you map the most efficient service locations, and streamline online ordering and pickup so every break stays on schedule.
Our Columbia food truck partners are fully vetted for permits and insurance, and we provide a detailed, budget-friendly cost analysis before the first plate is served. Hungry for bold local flavor? Invite Carolina Cookin' for Lowcountry soft-shell crab and grits, or spice things up with New Orleans favorites from Mardi Gras Tyme. Need quick comfort food that keeps crews smiling? The Haute Dog Lady turns classic American dogs into gourmet bites.
Columbia’s famously hot summers call for a cool wrap party—treat everyone to shaved-ice bliss from Ken's Famous Italian Ice or the island vibes of Kona Ice - Columbia. Food truck catering reduces food and packaging waste, keeping our “Famously Hot” city a little greener. Let Best Food Trucks handle the meal logistics for your studio production in Columbia—so you can focus on the next perfect shot.
Supporting Columbia’s Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking studio food truck catering in Columbia does more than keep your crew fed between takes—it keeps money circulating right here in the Midlands. Many of the rolling kitchens we dispatch got their start at Soda City Market on Main Street or along Devine Street’s weekend pop-ups, and they’re still owned by solo entrepreneurs and family-run teams. Every taco, shrimp po’ boy, or vegan grain bowl you order helps a local household pay rent, hire neighbors, and source produce from Lexington County farms.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional buffet lines. With built-in commercial kitchens, trucks draw less power than tented steam tables and send out meals in compostable packaging that keeps single-use plastics out of the Congaree River. Choosing a truck for your Columbia film set catering shrinks your carbon footprint while giving cast and crew fresh, made-to-order dishes instead of reheated pans.
So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” during an overnight shoot in Five Points or a dawn call at Riverfront Park, remember Best Food Trucks. We’ll match you with a socially responsible, Midlands-made menu that makes good food part of the good you do.

I like both pizzas, especially the one with mushroom, cheese, carm onion, and arugula with truffle oil. Also being able to pre-order ahead, service was fast. Thank you!

The Ahi Tuna Roll was quite delicious and surprisingly substantial without being too heavy. I recommend picking a fork with it. Wraps never survive in one piece.

Everything. Only recommendation would be to have regular tartar sauce for catfish along with the sauce it comes with.

The Italian sausage sandwich was great with the peppers, and it was nice to have a cooked vegetable option with the green beans. It was made just like how I'd cook it up in my own kitchen.

The chicken tacos were great, with awesome flavor, along with the fries that were nice and fresh with the added extra seasoning! I enjoyed my lunch today for sure! 🤗

The sauce was just the right amount of sweet, the combination of the crispy crust and warm melted cheese was perfect and the pepperoni added a nice spice to round it out. 😋yum

I ordered the Lemonade cupcake. I loved the balance between the sweet of the icing and the sour of the lemon! It was so delicious!!!
