Our crew understands the tight turnaround times and exacting standards of on-set dining. We’ll design rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew excited, pinpoint convenient serving spots—whether that’s outside a warehouse near the Iowa State Fairgrounds or beside a soundstage in Historic Valley Junction—and streamline online ordering and pickup so meal breaks never run long.

Fueling Creativity & Des Moines Small Businesses
Every time you park a food truck on set, you’re keeping production dollars right here in Des Moines. Most of the trucks we dispatch are owned by solo chefs from neighborhoods like Beaverdale, Highland Park, and the Historic East Village—folks who shop the Downtown Farmers’ Market at dawn and roll up to your soundstage by lunch. Booking your studio catering through Best Food Trucks means your cast and crew enjoy fresh, Iowa-grown flavors while local families keep their businesses rolling.
Food trucks are also a win for eco-friendly productions. Compared with traditional buffet lines, our rigs sip less energy, use compostable service ware, and generate far fewer trash bags—helping you hit those sustainability goals the next time you film along the Des Moines River or inside a warehouse near the State Fairgrounds. Any safe leftovers are routed to DMARC food pantries instead of the landfill, so nothing goes to waste.
So when “low-budget film catering Des Moines” pops up on your call sheet, reach out to Best Food Trucks. We’ll line up a socially responsible, crowd-pleasing fleet that keeps your production on schedule and your community thriving.

Wow, the house cooper sharp cheese sauce, it was like a cheese sauce and gravy, absolutely fantastic. All of it was so top tier, but even the unexpected, the pizza puff, was soooo good. Blew my mind, amazing, will go back if they come back.

The entire meal was delish. The Currywurst almost tasted like the ones that I used to eat back home in Germany. Loved the mayonnaise with the fries!!!! 💕

All the food was really good, except the special they had for pizza - Pizza Verde. That one lacked flavor, or maybe it had so spinach that you mainly only tasted spinach. Otherwise, everything else was really good!
