Hot, Customizable Studio Meals in Ann Arbor—Ready When You Call “Cut!”
Whether you’re shooting an indie film on Liberty Street, recording a commercial along the Huron River, or polishing post-production edits just off Main, Best Food Trucks delivers studio food truck catering Ann Arbor crews rave about. Our seasoned team keeps your cast and crew energized, on budget, and on schedule.
We partner with the city’s favorite mobile kitchens to build rotating daily menus that taste like a “mini Taste of Ann Arbor.” Imagine fiery tenders from Blazin Coop's Nashville Hot Chicken on Monday, melt-in-your-mouth brisket from Ricewood BBQ on Tuesday, bulgogi-stuffed buns from Bao Boys mid-week, street-style tacos rolled out of the vintage 1923 "Bustaurant" on Thursday, and a Friday wrap party stacked with smash burgers from The Burger Truck. Even the most persnickety eaters on set will be asking for seconds.
From locating the perfect parking spot on your studio lot or remote location, to streamlining online ordering and staggered pickup windows, we handle it all. We vet every vendor for permits, insurance, and Health Department compliance and provide a transparent cost summary that keeps accounting as happy as the craft services table.
Food truck catering also slashes single-use packaging and food waste—helping keep “Tree Town” green while you create movie magic. Let Best Food Trucks manage mealtime for your Ann Arbor studio, so you can focus on lights, camera, and action.
Support Ann Arbor’s Home-Grown Food Truck Scene
Booking a food truck for your studio shoot doesn’t just feed the crew—it feeds our local economy, too. Most Ann Arbor food trucks are run by U-M alumni, longtime “Townies,” and family-owned startups that park at the Farmers Market in Kerrytown on weekends and hustle over to film sets on weekdays. Every plate of vegan mac from a yellow Maize & Blue rig or cherry-wood–smoked rib tip from a Ypsilanti pitmaster keeps dollars circulating right here in Washtenaw County.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional craft services. Because they cook to order from compact kitchens, they use less electricity, slash single-use packaging, and make it easy to compost leftover produce—perfect for a city nicknamed “Tree Town.”
The next time “low-budget film catering near me” pops into your search bar, remember that Best Food Trucks can line up Ann Arbor’s best rolling kitchens in minutes. You’ll get fast, flavorful meals, a lighter carbon footprint, and that warm feeling of keeping our small-business community rolling. Hit us up and turn mealtime into one more reason your set says, “Go Blue!”

Would have been a 5 star but they got there exactly at the time the luncheon was scheduled to start - making me a little nervous! Aside from that the food and service were both excellent!

Jiniah and her team were amazing - very friendly and efficient with our guests. Food was great and there was a wide variety - the only reason I’m not giving them 5 stars is that it is advertised as serving seasoned waffle fries and they were just plain fries - still tasty but not what we expected.

I got the cheesesteak combo. It was pretty good. Fries were a bit too crunchy and overcooked for my liking.

the burger from Badass Burger Buggy was one of the best burgers I have ever had. Even after bringing it home it was still hot which made it taste even better. Nikki's Sweets are always very good and we like trying a new dessert each time.
