Food Truck Catering for Columbia Campuses
Searching for the easiest, tastiest way to handle food truck catering for schools in Columbia? Whether you’re feeding hungry Gamecocks at the University of South Carolina, welcoming freshmen at Benedict College, or celebrating Field Day at one of Richland County’s K-12 schools, food trucks are the talk of the town. Best Food Trucks takes the charm of Columbia’s famous Soda City street food scene and rolls it right onto your campus.
Our streamlined online ordering platform eliminates those Main Street–length lines, giving students and faculty a quick “order ahead, pick up, and go” solution. From breakfast burritos before an 8 a.m. class to late-night bites after a Williams-Brice Stadium game, we make sure everyone eats well and on time.
Columbia’s culinary roots run deep, so we partner with local favorites that students already rave about:
- Carolina Cookin' – Gourmet Seafood classics like soft-shell crab and grits bring Lowcountry comfort straight to the quad.
- Mardi Gras Tyme – Authentic Cajun flavor turns any pep rally into a Bayou-style celebration with jambalaya and red beans & rice.
- Buck n Cluck – All-American burgers, chicken, and bistro bites that keep energy high between classes.
- Kona Ice - Columbia – Shaved-ice bliss perfect for that steamy Midlands spring kickball tournament.
- Ken's Famous Italian Ice – A sweet, refreshing finish to any campus fundraiser or Spirit Week bash.
Dietary restrictions? No problem. We work hand-in-hand with each truck to offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-friendly menus, so every student at Columbia College or Midlands Tech feels included.
Leave scheduling, permits, and vendor coordination to us—Best Food Trucks handles all the logistics while you focus on teaching, coaching, and creating memories. When you choose Best Food Trucks for your school food truck catering in Columbia, you’re not just serving a meal; you’re delivering an experience as vibrant as the Vista at sunset.
Matt,
You and the Best Food Trucks crew knocked it out of the park again this year. From Welcome Week on Greene Street to our Friday-night tailgate outside Williams-Brice, every Columbia campus event ran smooth because of your trucks. Thanks for being our first call whenever the Gamecocks get hungry!
