Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Hartford Studio Set
From the indie shoots on Pratt Street to the big commercials filming along the Connecticut River, Hartford productions run on tight schedules. Best Food Trucks brings years of on-location food truck catering experience to studios across the Capital City, so your cast and crew stay fueled and filming. We’ll partner with your production manager to build rotating daily menus, coordinate the best parking spots around Coltsville or Parkville, streamline online ordering and walk-up pickup, and make sure every vendor carries the proper City of Hartford permits and insurance.
Looking for local flavor? Treat your team to loaded baked potatoes stacked high at Craving Potato Factory, award-winning Buffalo wings from Wing It On Wheels, authentic Jamaican jerk chicken via Lucan’s Grill, or classic comfort plates from South9 Foodtruck. Don’t forget sweet wrap gifts—buttery-rich desserts from Perfect PoundCakes llc always get rave reviews in the breakroom.
Our detailed cost summaries keep your accounting department smiling, and food trucks mean less packaging and food waste—perfect for eco-minded Hartford productions. Let Best Food Trucks handle every meal break for your studio so you can focus on getting the perfect shot.
Fueling Hartford’s Small-Business Scene
Booking a food truck for your studio set isn’t just convenient—it keeps Greater Hartford’s entrepreneurial engine humming. Every truck that rolls up outside your soundstage at Cine-Studio, or in the shadow of the Travelers Tower, is owned and staffed by local families, veterans, and first-generation chefs who live from Barry Square to Blue Hills. Your catering dollars stay right here in the Capital Region, circulating through farmers’ markets, commissary kitchens, and neighborhood suppliers.
Hartford food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional buffet lines. Compact kitchens mean lower energy use, and our vendors serve on recyclable or compostable ware mandated by the city’s sustainability guidelines—helping keep Bushnell Park and the Riverfront spotless. Less staging, less trash, zero drama—exactly what a fast-moving studio shoot needs.
So the next time your production manager types “film set food truck catering Hartford” or “low budget crew meals near me,” remember Best Food Trucks. We’ll match you with a socially responsible mobile kitchen that fits your script and your budget, all while showcasing the signature flavors that make Hartford famous.

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

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.
