Hot, Customizable Meals Delivered to Your Knoxville Set
When your cameras are rolling at a Market Square soundstage, a warehouse off Middlebrook Pike, or on location along the Tennessee River, you need studio food truck catering in Knoxville that runs as smoothly as your production schedule. Best Food Trucks has spent years feeding film and TV crews nationwide, and we bring that expertise home to Big Orange Country. From early-morning call sheets to late-night wrap parties, we make sure every Volunteer gets a plate they love, served right on time.
Our Knoxville film crew catering team will build rotating daily menus, position trucks for quick walk-up service, and streamline online ordering and pickup—so no one is stuck in a lunch line when they should be checking lighting. We also vet every vendor for health permits and insurance, then provide a clear cost breakdown that keeps your budget in focus. Food truck catering cuts down on buffet waste and single-use plastics, helping you keep the Scenic City green while you create movie magic.
Want local flavor? Treat your grip crew to smoky East Tennessee classics from Smoked Pickle Barbecue or Clean Smoke BBQ. Spice up the craft-services table with street-taco favorites from Dia De Foods. Need a quick burger between takes? Hamburger Hill Food Truck has you covered. And when the director calls for comfort food, Penne For Your Thoughts plates up crowd-pleasing Italian that keeps morale high.
From Old City indie shoots to major network productions near the University of Tennessee campus, Best Food Trucks handles every detail of studio catering in Knoxville. Let us feed the cast and crew so you can focus on getting the perfect shot.
Fueling Your Crew—and Knoxville’s Economy
Booking studio food truck catering in Knoxville does more than keep your cast and crew satisfied — it keeps our city’s small-business scene thriving. Every truck that rolls onto your set is usually a family-run operation, whether it’s a husband-and-wife pit-master team from Fountain City or a UT alum serving pan-Asian bowls they perfected at the Market Square Farmers’ Market. Your daily meal budget goes straight into the pockets of local entrepreneurs, circulating dollars right back into Knox County.
Food trucks also fit perfectly with East Tennessee’s “Keep Knoxville Beautiful” mindset. Compared with traditional buffet kitchens, trucks draw less power, require fewer water hookups, and produce minimal food waste thanks to made-to-order service. Many Knoxville vendors even compost scraps through the city’s Green Waste program and stock locally sourced ingredients from Nourish Knoxville partners.
So the next time your production manager types “low-budget film catering near me,” point them to Best Food Trucks. You’ll lock in reliable, crowd-pleasing meals, champion Knoxville’s home-grown businesses, and shrink your on-set footprint—all in one call sheet entry. That’s a wrap on catering headaches.

The brisket melt is absolutely delicious. We loved the seasoning on the fresh cut fries. This is definitely our favorite sandwich truck that comes to Talavera.

I was just a little disappointed that they didn't have the chess pie that I had ordered. The red beans and rice were really good.

The turkey burger was good. I don't eat onions and have allergies to that so I scraped them off. There wasn't a space to request ti have them removed. Perhaps, an "instructions" space can be added for that particular burger as well. Many have allergies to foods. Thank you!🙂
