Hot, Customizable Meals for Columbia Studios—Ready When You Call “Lunch!”
Whether you’re shooting a feature downtown near the South Carolina State House, filming an indie by the Congaree River, or producing a commercial on the University of South Carolina campus, Best Food Trucks is Columbia’s trusted partner for on-set food truck catering. Our crew understands how tight production schedules can be, so we make sure every meal break runs smoother than a take on the first call.
We collaborate with your line producer to build rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew excited. Think Lowcountry favorites from Carolina Cookin', spicy Cajun classics from Mardi Gras Tyme, over-the-top comfort dogs from The Haute Dog Lady, smoky barbecue plates courtesy of RB Top Chef Mobile Kitchen & Catering, and a sweet wrap party cool-down with Ken's Famous Italian Ice. Every truck is fully vetted for permits, insurance, and ServeSafe certifications, so you never have to worry about compliance on set.
We’ll help you pinpoint the best parking spot—whether that’s tucked behind a soundstage in the BullStreet District or beside a location shoot in Five Points—then streamline mobile ordering and rapid pick-up so your AD doesn’t have to extend the lunch window. Detailed cost summaries and real-time spend analysis keep your budget in check while eco-friendly service ware and portion planning reduce food and packaging waste across the Midlands.
From sunrise call times to late-night wrap shots, trust Best Food Trucks to handle studio food truck catering in Columbia. You focus on getting the perfect shot; we’ll make sure everyone’s fed, happy, and back on set faster than you can say, “That’s a wrap!”
Fueling Columbia’s Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a food truck for your studio shoot in Columbia isn’t just the tastiest way to feed the crew—it’s an investment in our local economy. The trucks that line Main Street for Soda City Market or serve Gamecock fans outside Williams-Brice Stadium are the very same family-owned rigs that can roll up behind your soundstage. Every taco, brisket plate, or vegan bowl you order keeps revenue circulating right here in the Midlands and helps home-grown entrepreneurs thrive.
Food truck catering is also gentler on the planet than traditional buffet service. Each truck arrives self-contained, using less power, less water, and far fewer disposables. They cook to order, which means slimmer food waste numbers—something both your production accountant and the City of Columbia’s sustainability office will appreciate.
So when someone hops on comms asking for “low-budget film catering near me,” call Best Food Trucks. We’ll connect your set with a local Columbia food truck that keeps cast, crew, and small businesses rolling—deliciously, responsibly, and right on schedule.

Everything was great but the wait time is way too long. Did preorder and wasn't ready until 7:00. Lunch is over at 7.

The pizza was great. Good flavor, crispy. No complaints about the food at all. One very minor thing that may just be me, but the order page shows Coke products, but they provide generic cans of soda.
