Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Knoxville Studio Set!

Whether you’re shooting a feature at the Volunteer Landing Riverfront, filming HGTV segments near Market Square, or producing music videos in South Knoxville’s warehouse district, Best Food Trucks delivers the most dependable food truck catering for studios in Knoxville. Our team understands the pace of production life in East Tennessee, so your crew will always find fresh, on-time meals waiting when the director yells “Break!”

We partner with beloved local trucks like Smoked Pickle Barbecue and Clean Smoke BBQ for that slow-smoked flavor Knoxville is famous for after a long morning on set. Craving something different? Spice things up with authentic street tacos from Dia De Foods, sink your teeth into a Big Orange-sized burger from Hamburger Hill Food Truck, or treat the crew to scratch-made pasta from Penne For Your Thoughts. Rotating daily menus keep even the most persnickety eaters happy without repeating a dish all week.

From vetting every vendor’s permits and insurance to mapping the perfect parking spot near your sound stage, we handle the logistics so you can stay focused on the shot list. Our streamlined online ordering and pickup system means no more paper meal tickets, and our detailed cost summaries ensure your catering stays on budget—something every Knoxville line producer appreciates.

Choosing food truck catering reduces packaging waste and supports the local Knoxville culinary scene, making your production greener and more community-minded. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your studio—because in this town of rolling cameras and rolling hills, the only thing you should worry about is nailing the next take.

Supporting Knoxville’s Small Businesses

Every time you book food truck catering for studios in Knoxville, you keep East Tennessee dollars right here in the 865. Most of the trucks we dispatch to sets—from a sunrise call at Screenworks on Chapman Highway to a late-night shoot off Magnolia—are run by solo entrepreneurs, husband-and-wife pit-masters, or second-generation family chefs. Your crew gets scratch-made meals; those local owners get the kind of steady revenue that helps them pay rent in the Old City and send their kids to the University of Tennessee. That’s a win-win worthy of a standing ovation.

Food trucks are also the eco-friendly choice for Knoxville productions. Because the kitchens are self-contained, they sip far less power than a traditional on-site buffet line, and reusable serving baskets slash landfill waste faster than you can say “Go Vols!” Combine that with our digital ordering (no paper tickets blowing down Gay Street) and you’ve got catering that’s as green as the Smokies in spring.

So the next time your location manager Googles “low-budget film catering near me,” give Best Food Trucks a call. You’ll feed the cast, fuel the crew, and uplift the hardworking small businesses that make Knoxville’s food scene one of the tastiest in the South.

We choose Good Hombres to cater a retirement party at our business, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. They arrived right on time to set up and were ready to serve exactly when planned. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were very generous—no one left hungry! The staff was incredibly friendly and kept the line moving quickly, so everyone was served without long waits. We chose a package that included an entrée, side, and drink for each guest, and it was well worth it. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food provided. Our guests loved the unique idea of having a food truck, and it really added something special to the event. Highly recommend for anyone planning a party or corporate event!

We hosted an office party at a local park & had Good Hombres there to serve lunch. Everyone loved the food & the service that was provided. We will definitely use them again in the future!

The pulled pork sandwich, and the baked beans were very good. I had potato salad, too, but it tasted like a bit too much vinegar. I like creamy potato salad and creamy cold slaw. I will eat from the truck, again.

The brisket was just ... perfect. Absolutely perfect. And the mac and cheese was so creamy and well-seasoned. 10/10 recommend.

Everything was amazing except the small-thin metal wire that I had to pull out of my mouth while I was eating. I kept eating it though! It was DELICIOUS
