Lucan’s Grill – Authentic Jamaican favorites like jerk chicken and curry veggies add island heat to chilly New England shoot days.
Mi Amor Eats – Fresh Mexican street tacos, quesadillas, and elote keep lines moving and stomachs happy.

Fueling Hartford’s Creative Economy

Every time you book food truck catering for a Hartford studio set, you’re putting dollars right back into the city’s tight-knit community of makers. Most of the trucks that pull up to the curb on Trumbull Street or park outside the historic Colt Armory are owned by solo chefs, family teams, and first-generation entrepreneurs who grew up right here in the Capital City. Your catering budget helps them hire local staff, source produce from Connecticut farms, and keep Hartford’s culinary scene vibrant.

Food trucks aren’t just neighbor-friendly—they’re planet-friendly. Because our kitchens are fully contained on wheels, we draw less power than a traditional craft-services build-out and generate far fewer single-use supplies. Many Hartford trucks have already swapped to compostable serviceware and bio-diesel generators, so your production can shrink its footprint while shooting along the Connecticut River or inside the vast Riverfront Studios soundstage.

Looking for “low-budget film catering in Hartford” that still delivers five-star flavor? Best Food Trucks connects you with the city’s most creative rolling restaurants, giving your cast and crew something new to crave every day—without blowing the budget or the schedule.
