Fueling Detroit’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time

Booking food truck catering for your Detroit studio shoot doesn’t just keep your crew happy—it keeps the city’s small-business scene humming. Every truck that rolls onto your set is a family-owned operation based right here in Wayne County, from an Eastern Market baker who turned a vintage Step-Van into a patty-melt palace to a third-generation pit-master smoking ribs in Southwest Detroit. Your catering dollars stay local, circulating through Corktown supply houses, Hamtramck produce stands, and Brightmoor commissary kitchens.

Food trucks are also a smart, eco-forward choice for film set catering in Detroit. Compared with traditional drop-offs, our mobile kitchens draw less power, minimize single-use packaging, and leave behind almost zero food waste—no half-empty hotel pans heading to the incinerator on Zug Island. We even help you position the truck to cut down on generator run-time and idle emissions.

So the next time you’re googling “Detroit studio food truck catering near me” at 2 a.m. after a night shoot on Lafayette, give Best Food Trucks a call. You’ll get hot, customizable meals, keep Motown’s entrepreneurs rolling, and shrink your production’s carbon footprint—all in one shot. That’s a wrap Detroit can be proud of.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.

This is the best burger truck. Everything we ordered was really fresh. Please keep Smash and Roll on Talavera’s list of trucks.

The fries were cooked well and love the seasoning, I just prefer thinner fries. I also think it would be better if the bun was toasted. Otherwise great meal.
