Our local team knows set life and Gainesville traffic patterns, so your cast and crew enjoy fresh meals right on schedule—no matter if you’re shooting at dawn on Payne’s Prairie or grabbing a late-night bite downtown near Bo Diddley Plaza.
We partner with some of the most popular food trucks in town. Craving slow-smoked ribs? Tap Blueline Q for authentic barbecue that rivals any tailgate on Gator game day.

Our online ordering system lets crew members pre-select dishes, cutting down wait times and eliminating paper tickets, which means less food and packaging waste for a greener Gainesville production.
From detailed cost analysis to on-site service coordination, we take the guesswork out of studio catering, leaving you free to focus on getting the perfect shot. Book your Gainesville food truck catering with Best Food Trucks today and keep your production running as smoothly as the cameras.
Fueling Gainesville’s Creative Economy—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking food truck catering for studios in Gainesville does more than satisfy hungry cast and crew—it keeps money circulating right here in the 352. Nearly every truck we dispatch is a family-run business based in neighborhoods like Duckpond, Haile, or out by Newberry Road. When you roll up to set with local favorites such as Humble Wood Fire or Das Guten Brot, you’re helping Gainesville entrepreneurs pay their staff, shop the Union Street Farmers Market, and sponsor Little League at Diamond Sports Park.
Food trucks are also an eco-smarter choice for on-location shoots. Compared with a traditional catering kitchen, our rigs use less power, arrive with just-in-time inventory, and ditch disposable chafing pans for on-board griddles. Many Gainesville trucks run on biodiesel from recycled fryer oil collected along Archer Road, and most serve with compostable utensils supplied by local green-goods outfit Life Unplastic. Smaller carbon footprint, bigger taste—it’s a wrap everyone can cheer for.
So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering Gainesville,” skip the generic box lunches and call Best Food Trucks. We’ll give your production delicious eats, hometown hospitality, and a socially responsible story to tell when the credits roll.

The brisket grilled cheese was seriously the best BBQ sandwich I've ever had. It was PERFECT. The meat was Smokey and the BBQ sauce was definitely homemade because it was superb & you can taste the love that was put into it. My husband tried it & instantly wanted one. We will be ordering 2 sandwiches each next time - they were THAT good. Staff was friendly and our order was made exactly at the time we selected. 10/10 will be back!

Sandwiches were absolutely phenomenal. Cuban, chicken parm, grilled cheese and brisket were all top notch! Five stars there. Fries had zero taste and were pretty bad but the main course more than made up for it.

Everything! It's the best pizza I've ever had and I mean it. I do wish they had a customization option with more add ons. But for what they had I wouldn't change a thing. 10/10

I received the wrong pizza (pepperoni) at first. Once I took the incorrect pizza back to the truck they apologized and made the NY plain with extra cheese as I had originally ordered. The staff was friendly and professional. When I was picking up the remake the AFrame metal sign blew over and struck me in the back of my lower leg just above my foot. I would suggest that food trucks tie down or weight their signs to keep this from happening in the future. Luckily it did not land on the top of my foot since I was wearing flip flops. I have some bruising and have placed some ice on it.

My two favorite parts are the family atmosphere and the high quality food. I look forward to the savory sauces in the pastas.

Thanks food was good. Maybe think about adding a combo to your menu to add a taco or fries for an additional 3-4$
