Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Richmond, VA

When Richmonders pack Brown’s Island for Friday Cheers, tailgate outside The Diamond for a Flying Squirrels game, or fill the stands at Richmond Raceway, they expect two things: electric entertainment and unforgettable eats. Modern food truck catering delivers both—without the headaches that came with old-school tent kitchens, extension cords, and endless permits.

Best Food Trucks coordinates full-service mobile kitchens that roll in self-contained and ready to serve. Faster setup, safer prep, and a wide variety of menus mean your guests spend less time waiting in line and more time enjoying your festival, 5K, or corporate outing.

Looking for local flavor that screams “RVA”? Check out a few of our hometown favorites ready to feed any crowd:

  • Fantabulous Chef Service LLC – stick-to-your-ribs American comfort food that tastes like Sunday supper on the James.
  • Curbside Creations – burgers, loaded fries, and handheld classics perfect for a Dominion Energy Center block party.
  • Shakedown Eats – scratch-made sandwiches and shareables that keep Carytown shoppers coming back for more.
  • Noahsrockinbuns – fresh, fluffy bao buns and Asian street eats that spice up any Riverrock festival menu.
  • Latin Quarter – vibrant Caribbean flavors that turn a Shockoe Bottom brew fest into a tropical getaway.

From a 500-person corporate retreat at Maymont to a 20,000-fan music marathon at City Stadium, we match the right trucks to your headcount and handle all scheduling, parking logistics, and point-of-sale systems. It’s the easiest way to lock in top-tier food truck catering for large scale events in Richmond.

Skip the Line, Richmond—Grab Your Phone and Get Back to the Show

Nothing kills the vibe at the Virginia Credit Union LIVE! stage or the Richmond Folk Festival faster than a 40-minute food line. Best Food Trucks solves that problem with an online ordering system built for the River City’s biggest crowds. Your guests tap, pay, and stroll—then get a text the second their brisket taco or pimento-mac burger is ready.

Here’s why Richmonders love it:

  • No standing in queues—order from your seat on Brown’s Island or your blanket at Byrd Park.
  • Real-time updates—live ticket tracking lets guests know exactly when to head to the truck.
  • Pre-event scheduling—send a custom link so volunteers, vendors, and VIPs can lock in pickup times before gates even open.
  • High-volume peace of mind—engineered to process thousands of orders per hour, perfect for marathons, music fests, and food truck catering for large scale events in Richmond.

Combine Richmond’s hottest food trucks with the city’s smartest ordering platform and you’ve got a recipe for happier guests, shorter lines, and a smoother event. That’s large-scale catering, RVA style.

They were very kind and quick with getting food out! I had asked for a 12pm pick up time and they messaged me at 11:50 that it was ready to go. The food was delicious and just as I ordered. I'd visit them at other locations as well

Food was good, chicken sandwiches were large, but underseasoned. Buffalo wasn't spicy at all and blackened just needed some more. My daughter did say it's the best burger she ever had and that's all she wants to eat

I probably would not have gotten the mac and cheese bites if i knew there would be thyme in them. That's on me though, and now I know for next time. Really well-seasoned burger and I liked the normal mac that was on it!

Bang bang chicken is amazing and so are the deep fried Oreos! Funnelvision is by far my favorite food truck!

Be attentive to ordering apps, so that food is ready in a fair amount of time. And, have To-Go packaging ready for safe transport.

The food was fantastic and HUGE! It was a big hit. Excellent communication from the trunk owner. Small hiccups that were professional handled.

Fresher ingredients. The tomatoes was kinda not fresh - like the skin was separating from the flesh. Maybe more veggies, as well. Overall it was good.
