Food Truck Catering for Events in Columbia, SC

Whether you’re throwing a Gamecocks tailgate outside Williams-Brice Stadium, planning a sunset soirée on the Riverwalk, or hosting a corporate mixer at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center, great food is what turns an ordinary gathering into an unforgettable Columbia experience. Today’s smartest planners skip the old-school tent kitchens and go straight to food truck catering for events in Columbia. Modern food trucks roll in with fully self-contained commercial kitchens—no extra permits, power drops, or hours of set-up required—so you can focus on your guests, not the logistics.

Columbia’s food truck scene is as diverse as Main Street during Saturday’s Soda City Market. Need coastal flavors? Book Carolina Cookin' for soft-shell crab over creamy grits. Looking for a Cajun kick that rivals any Five Points jazz bar? Mardi Gras Tyme serves up authentic Creole jambalaya and red beans & rice. Craving slow-smoked barbecue for your Lake Murray boat party? RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering has you covered. For family-friendly comfort food at your Riverbanks Zoo fundraiser, invite The Haute Dog Lady. Cap it all off with a sweet, cool treat from Ken's Famous Italian Ice—a Columbia summer staple.

From outdoor movie nights on the State House lawn to neighborhood block parties in Shandon, renting food trucks for events in Columbia gives your guests more variety, faster service, and that unmistakable Midlands charm. Book your favorite rigs, park them curbside, and watch the lines—and the smiles—form.

Conference catering

Skip the line and soak up the Famously Hot fun

Best Food Trucks’ lightning-fast online ordering lets your guests enjoy the event, not the queue. Instead of standing in a food-truck line that feels longer than rush hour on I-26, attendees simply pull up the menu on their phones, pay in seconds, and get a text when their meal is hot and ready. It’s the perfect combo of Southern hospitality and modern convenience.

Planning a Lake Murray sunset cruise, a Vista art crawl, or a wedding reception at 701 Whaley? Send a pre-order link with each invitation so folks can lock in a pickup time before the party even starts. Pair Columbia’s best food truck catering with mobile ordering and you’ll keep lines short, bellies full, and all eyes on the reason everyone gathered in the first place—your unforgettable event in South Carolina’s Capital City.

Everything was great but no one knew they could get a cookie, the sign for the type of pizza's and the cookie was not very visible. The team did a great job, food was hot and delicious (salad very good). We had some happy campers.

Lupita's Tacos were incredible - I've received positive feedback from attendees! The food was great! I really appreciated the pre-packaging, it made everything go by so smoothly and the line was never too long. And communication up to the event was great. My one suggestion would be to label the pre-packaging so people know what type of meat is inside the burritos/tacos, instead of having to open each container. But other than that, amazing! Will definitely keep them in mind for future events :)
