Food Truck Catering for Parties in Columbia, SC
If you’ve ever tried to throw a party in Cola—whether it’s a tailgate outside Williams-Brice, a birthday picnic on the banks of Lake Murray, or a graduation bash in the Vista—you already know how quickly details can snowball. Nothing derails a celebration faster than disappointing food or a cramped kitchen full of caterers. Best Food Trucks solves both problems in one roll-up: we bring Columbia’s favorite mobile kitchens right to your curb, driveway, or park shelter.
Our network of professional food truck chefs prepares restaurant-quality meals inside their own fully equipped rigs, so every shrimp and grits plate, Cajun po’-boy, or gourmet hot dog is cooked fresh without taking over your home. When the party’s done, the truck simply drives away—no dishes to wash, no stove to scrub, and plenty of room left for dancing the shag or playing cornhole.
Local Columbia Trucks Your Guests Will Love
- Carolina Cookin' – Lowcountry classics like soft-shell crab over creamy grits and other seafood favorites that taste like a weekend on Edisto.

- Ken's Famous Italian Ice – Cool, fruity shaved ice perfect for Columbia’s famously hot summer parties.

Skip the Line and Keep Your Columbia Party Rolling
Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering works as smoothly as a sunset cruise on Lake Murray. Your guests tap a menu on their phones, pay in seconds, and get a text the moment their shrimp & grits or pulled-pork sliders are ready—no crowding around the truck, no guessing when the food will drop. It’s the smartest way to enjoy food truck catering for parties in Columbia because everyone stays mingling, dancing the shag, or cheering “Go Cocks!” instead of waiting in a hot line.
Want to be even more prepared? Send a custom pre-order link with your invitations so friends can choose a pickup time before the first toast or during halftime at Williams-Brice. From Soda City block parties to backyard birthdays in Forest Acres, our online ordering keeps the focus on fun while delivering the best food truck catering Columbia has to offer—zero hassle, zero extra work for you.

Hire this truck for your event! I hired them with about two weeks notice for my 50th birthday party, and I’m so glad I did! Donnell was fantastic to work with in terms of planning, and the food was *all* amazing—my guests could not stop raving. They worked with me to do small portions of more items so that we could have a variety… I chose jerk chicken, salmon, wings, and chicken tenders as entrees, and sides included Rasta Pasta, rice and peas, cabbage, and Yummy Mac. Everything about the entire experience was highly organized and super friendly, including impeccable service on the night of the event! Yummy food, and fantastic friendly service-you can’t go wrong! 😃
