Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Richmond, VA

Whether you’re hosting the Richmond Folk Festival on Brown’s Island, packing the stands at Richmond Raceway, or turning Monroe Park into the biggest VCU alumni tailgate ever, the key ingredients for success are live entertainment and unforgettable eats. Modern food truck catering delivers both. Instead of the old-school tent kitchens that require extra permits, generators, and hours of set-up, Richmond food trucks roll in with fully self-contained commercial kitchens and start serving within minutes.

Best Food Trucks coordinates entire fleets of local favorites, so your guests can stroll the James River riverfront with smoked BBQ fries in one hand and a bao bun in the other. From Carytown block parties to Shockoe Bottom street fairs, our large-scale event catering gives attendees the variety they crave while organizers enjoy one simple point of contact.

Want comfort food that feels like Sunday supper on Monument Avenue? Book Fantabulous Chef Service LLC, Curbside Creations, or Shakedown Eats for burgers, melts, and other stick-to-your-ribs classics. Looking to add an Asian twist that would make the murals on Arts District walls pop? Noahsrockinbuns steams up pillowy bao and chef-driven specialties. Craving Caribbean heat to match a summer concert at Dogwood Dell? Latin Quarter brings island flavors that transport your taste buds straight to the tropics.

No matter which combination you choose, our Richmond food truck catering for large events scales effortlessly—serving hundreds to tens of thousands—without sacrificing speed or flavor. Best Food Trucks handles the scheduling, health department coordination, and on-site logistics, so you can focus on headliners, sponsors, and celebrating everything that makes the River City shine.

Ready to elevate your next festival, corporate picnic, or sporting event? Contact Best Food Trucks today and secure the most talked-about food truck lineup in RVA!

National Event Series catering

Skip the Line, RVA—Enjoy the Event!

Nothing crushes the vibe at The Diamond, Maymont, or a packed concert at Brown’s Island faster than a 40-minute food line. Best Food Trucks solves that problem for Richmond event planners with a cutting-edge online ordering system built for high-volume crowds. Guests simply scan a QR code, choose from their favorite Richmond food trucks—maybe a pulled-pork sandwich from a Church Hill smokehouse on wheels or a vegan taco from a Fan District staple—then kick back until they receive a text that their order is ready.

Pre-ordering is just as easy. Send attendees a custom link before your Carytown street fair, Dominion Energy Riverrock expo, or big VCU homecoming bash and they can lock in a pickup time that fits their schedule. No lines, no paper tickets, no hassle—just more time to cheer, dance, and explore everything your large-scale Richmond event has to offer.

When you combine Richmond’s best food truck catering with Best Food Trucks’ mobile order-ahead technology, you get a seamless solution that handles thousands of transactions per hour without missing a beat. Your attendees stay focused on the fun, your vendors stay slammed (in a good way), and you earn five-star reviews for running the smoothest food service in the River City.

Delicious!!! Rangoon‘s were a bit on the cool side, but still delicious. Everything else was hot and steamy. Can’t wait till you come back to Raintree again.

More than 5! They worked their butts off to get the food out. All of it was delicious! Probably the best burger meat I've ever had, melted in my mouth!

Food was great and she was very pleasant. She was by herself when I went down there but she had a great system and stayed positive during a hectic time. I loved being able to pre-order and that they texted me when my food was ready.

The food was incredibly tasty and the portions were large - enough left over for lunch tomorrow. There aren't many creole trucks out there so knocking it out of the park flavor-wise was great!

Delicious food, ready for pickup exactly when promised, and friendly, welcoming folks running the operation. I hope they return to Greyhawk Landing.

Food was delicious but I have a feeling I got someone else's order. Be careful with your online orders.

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.

The catfish was very fresh and delicious--melts in your mouth and no fishy taste! The crispy Brussel sprouts were awesome too!

Have the pick-up window labeled so people who pre-order can go straight up to the window instead of being overlooked as someone who hasn't ordered yet or someone who is waiting for their food order.
