Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Gainesville Studio Crew
Searching for food truck catering for a studio in Gainesville? Whether you’re shooting a commercial near Innovation Square, filming a feature by the historic Hippodrome, or staging a late-night scene close to the University of Florida campus, Best Food Trucks keeps your cast and crew fueled and on time.
Our Gainesville studio catering program taps into the city’s best mobile kitchens. Sink your teeth into smoky barbecue from Blueline Q, Southern comfort classics from Tommyknockers Mobile Kitchen, or island-fresh flavors at Impact Island Cafe Food Truck. Need all-American favorites? Rancho Luna Food Truck has you covered. For a bold change-up, the African specialties at A will spice up any call sheet.
We build rotating daily menus that satisfy vegan, keto, gluten-free, and “feed-the-Gators” appetites alike. Our team vets every vendor for City of Gainesville permits and insurance, scouts the best set-adjacent parking spots, streamlines mobile ordering and pickup, and provides a clear cost analysis that stays on budget.
Food truck catering for your Gainesville studio is eco-friendly too—serving fresh meals with less food and packaging waste keeps Paynes Prairie and the rest of Alachua County beautiful. Let Best Food Trucks handle the mealtime logistics so you can focus on getting the perfect shot.
Supporting Gainesville’s Small Businesses
Booking food truck catering for your studio set in Gainesville does more than keep everyone fed—it pours real dollars back into the local economy. Every truck that rolls up to Innovation Square or parks behind the Hippodrome is owned by a Gainesville-area entrepreneur or family business. When you choose our vetted lineup of mobile kitchens, your production budget stays right here in Alachua County, helping neighbors pay rent, hire crew, and source produce from regional farms like Swallowtail and The Family Garden.
Food trucks are also an eco-smart alternative to traditional craft services. Because they cook to order in energy-efficient kitchens on wheels, trucks generate less food waste and slash the need for disposable chafing pans. Fewer generators humming behind the scenes means quieter audio takes and a smaller carbon footprint—good news for both your sound mixer and Paynes Prairie.
The next time your AD types “low-budget film catering near me” or “food truck catering for a studio in Gainesville” into the call sheet, give Best Food Trucks a shout. We’ll line up a socially responsible, flavor-packed service that makes lunch break at Bo Diddley Plaza or a midnight shoot on UF’s campus feel like a pop-up food festival—Gator-approved and green to the core.

The only thing we would not order again is the Barbacoa tacos. Expected them to be more finely shredded. The meat was a little tough. Everything else was great!

More accurate timeline to have the food ready. My grandkids waited 45 mins after being told it would be 10 minutes

The burger was well cooked, and the fries were actually my favorite kind of crispy with a nice seasoning

Suggest slightly less fries. I did like how they were cooked. Slightly more sauce in the sandwich; not much though. I'd definitely order again in the future.

Food was great, process was not, received message 30 minutes prior to my requested order time only to arrive and then have to wait 20 minutes in line to pick up my order..... process needs value stream mapping. Food was legit though.
