Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Columbia, SC

From packed Gamecock tailgates outside Williams-Brice Stadium to summer concerts at the Township Auditorium, Columbia knows how to throw a party—and locals expect the food to be as memorable as the entertainment. Best Food Trucks makes that happen by bringing the city’s favorite mobile kitchens directly to your venue, whether you’re feeding 500 fans at Riverbanks Zoo’s Brew at the Zoo or 5,000 guests at a festival on historic Main Street.

Traditional tent vendors once meant long set-ups, extra permits, and limited menus. Modern food truck catering solves all of that. Each truck arrives in Columbia with a self-contained commercial kitchen, cutting down on power requirements and health-department headaches while expanding menu variety. The result? Faster lines, hotter food, and happier guests at marathons, corporate picnics in Finlay Park, or large conferences at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center.

Best Food Trucks curates a custom lineup to fit every palate. Craving Southern seafood comfort? Carolina Cookin' plates up soft-shell crab and stone-ground grits that taste like a trip to the coast. Want a Cajun kick? Mardi Gras Tyme ladles out red beans & rice that will make you shout, “Laissez les bons temps rouler!” Need smoky barbecue for a crowd? RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering brings the pit to you. Cool things down afterward with a cup of Columbia’s favorite frozen treat from Ken's Famous Italian Ice, or keep it classic with gourmet dogs from The Haute Dog Lady.

No event is too big. We schedule staggered service windows, arrange on-site logistics, and provide digital ordering so your attendees can explore the South Carolina State Museum instead of standing in line. When you need food truck catering for large-scale events in Columbia, SC, Best Food Trucks delivers—literally.

I was told that the $6 garlic fries I paid extra for were on the one box. I find it hard to believe that was extra fries. Seems like it would be an extra box(extra side)

Food was amazing. Chef Yarwood clearly knows what he is doing. The steak tips with mushrooms and onions as well as the Mac and cheese were truly delicious. I will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Good pizza! I love the crust and the garlic is over the top! Suggestion: allow me to add sausage and extra basil to the base white pizza without adding red sauce.😉

The Ice Dreammm Truck was a hit. Strawberry Shortcake was a favorite. The employees were very friendly.

I found the cheese pizza to be salty and the margherita pizza needed more tomato sauce. The cauliflower crust was good as was the balsamic vinaigrette.

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!
