Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Columbia

From tailgates outside Williams-Brice Stadium to summer concerts on the banks of the Congaree, the Midlands knows how to throw a party. What every successful Columbia gathering has in common is great grub that’s served fast and fresh. That’s why event planners are swapping old-fashioned tent kitchens for modern food truck catering. Fully self-contained kitchens on wheels roll in, hook up, and start cooking—no extra permits, generators, or hours of setup required.

Best Food Trucks specializes in coordinating multiple food trucks for large scale events in Columbia. Whether you’re feeding 200 runners at the Governor’s Cup, 2,000 festival-goers at Riverbanks Zoo’s Brew at the Zoo, or a corporate crowd at the Vista, we line up the perfect mix of local favorites:

  • Carolina Cookin' – Gourmet Seafood classics like soft-shell crab & grits that celebrate Lowcountry flavor.
  • Mardi Gras Tyme – Authentic Cajun jambalaya, red beans & rice, and other Big Easy staples.
  • Buck n Cluck – Crowd-pleasing American bistro burgers, tenders, and wings that keep fans fueled.
  • Kona Ice - Columbia – Tropical shaved ice that turns Finlay Park festivals into island getaways.
  • Ken's Famous Italian Ice – Refreshing fruit ices perfect for steamy Soda City afternoons.

With our curated roster, guests enjoy plenty of menu variety while you enjoy a single point of contact. We handle scheduling, on-site logistics, health permits, and payment processing, so your team can focus on the music, art, or athletics that make your event shine.

If you’re planning a festival, marathon, or any large gathering, choose the stress-free solution that locals rave about: food truck catering for large scale events in Columbia by Best Food Trucks. Reach out today and let’s get those wheels—and the good times—rolling!

National Event Series catering

Skip the line and soak up the Columbia vibe!

Gamecock fans didn’t drive all the way to Williams-Brice to stand in a food line, and families at the Soda City Market want to explore Main Street—not shuffle through a maze of stanchions. That’s why Best Food Trucks brings its cutting-edge online ordering system to every large-scale event we cater in Columbia.

From the Colonial Life Arena to outdoor concerts at Riverfront Park, guests simply scan a QR code, tap in their order on a phone, and get a text the moment their food is hot and ready. No more guessing which line moves faster or missing the opening act while you wait for wings.

Planning a charity 5K along the Saluda Riverwalk? Send runners a pre-order link so their post-race burrito is timed perfectly for their cool-down stretch. Hosting an art crawl in Five Points? Stagger pickup windows so crowds flow smoothly between studios and food trucks without bottlenecks.

Our platform is built for high-frequency ordering, so whether you’re feeding 300 fans at a Vista rooftop party or 3,000 festival-goers at the Congaree Bluegrass Festival, every transaction is seamless. Food truck catering for large-scale events in Columbia plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering = more time enjoying the event and less time waiting in line for those exceptional eats.

Nothing specific, my wife just thought the Sonora steak tacos were ok but nothing special. My 3 mahi mahi tacos tasted great but were cold and I had to heat them in the microwave.

First experience. All was pretty good. Burger was well seasoned, bacon was good. Could have used a bit more of the signature sauce. All in all a good experience

Everything was very good. I had the three tacos, shrimp, pork and chicken. Shrimp and pork were very tasty. The chicken was dry and lacking taste. Overall, nice tacos. Great corn shell, very tasty and fresh.

but the cheese sauce on the Philly egg rooms was way to spicy and egg roll itself was blend - could use seasoning or cheese sauce that was better seasons and not just spicy hot but everything else is awesome hot and fresh
