Hot, Customizable Meals for Gainesville Studios
From indie shoots in historic downtown Gainesville to national productions filming near the University of Florida campus, Best Food Trucks keeps North-Central Florida crews fed and focused. Our Gainesville studio food truck catering service delivers steaming plates right when the 1st AD calls, “Lunch!”—no waiting, no hassles, just great food.
Choose from a roster of local favorites that Gainesville foodies already love: mouth-watering barbecue from Blueline Q, Southern comfort classics at Tommyknockers Mobile Kitchen, Caribbean spice from Impact Island Cafe Food Truck, stick-to-your-ribs American fare courtesy of Rancho Luna Food Truck, and bold African flavors at A. With rotating menus that cover every dietary need, even the pickiest Gator will walk away happy.
We work directly with your production team to:
- Design daily menus that fuel long shoot days.
- Pinpoint the best serving spot—whether you’re shooting at Depot Park, the Cade Museum back lot, or out by Payne’s Prairie.
- Streamline contact-free ordering and quick pick-up so your crew stays on schedule.
- Vet every vendor for Gainesville permits, insurance, and Health Department compliance.
- Provide a transparent cost summary that hits your budget targets.
Food truck catering cuts down on food and packaging waste too—great news for the crystal-clear springs and lush prairies that make filming in Gainesville so unique. Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime for your studio; it’s one less thing on your call sheet and one more reason your crew will love working in GNV.
Fueling Gainesville’s Economy One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a Gainesville studio food truck isn’t just smart logistics—it’s a direct investment in the 352. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run outfit based right here in Alachua County, from pit-master couples smoking brisket off NW 13th Street to UF alumni rolling out vegan bowls they perfected at the Union Street Farmers Market. Your crew gets hot, memorable meals, and local owners get the revenue that keeps their wheels—and the Gainesville economy—spinning.
Food truck catering is also a win for our green-minded city. Compared with traditional craft-service buffets, trucks operate on smaller footprints, consume less power, and rely on compostable serviceware that keeps Paynes Prairie and the Ichetucknee spring run crystal clear. Less waste on set means fewer dumpster runs and more time catching that golden-hour shot outside the Hippodrome.
So the next time “low-budget film catering Gainesville” pops up on your call sheet, skip the generic boxed lunches. Tap Best Food Trucks for eco-friendly, small-business-powered studio catering that tastes as good as it feels. Your crew—and the local community—will thank you.

I wish there was another slice of tomato on my loaded grilled cheese, it was a lot of bread. The kale salad was very tasty. Thanks

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
