Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Knoxville Studio Crew

Filming along the Tennessee River, down the street from the Sunsphere, or anywhere else in the Scruffy City? Best Food Trucks brings the most reliable food truck catering for studios in Knoxville right to your set. Our team has fed camera crews on Market Square, commercial shoots in Old City, and indie films near the University of Tennessee campus. We’ll coordinate every detail so your meal breaks run as smoothly as your call sheet.

From Smoked Pickle Barbecue pulling up with hickory-smoked ribs to Penne For Your Thoughts serving creamy Knoxville-style Alfredo, we rotate daily menus that keep cast and crew excited. Need vegetarian tacos for talent at golden hour? We’ll schedule Dia De Foods. Craving smash burgers for a late-night shoot in Fountain City? Hamburger Hill Food Truck has you covered. And when you want true East Tennessee flavor, Clean Smoke BBQ rolls in with pulled pork that rivals any tailgate on Rocky Top.

Best Food Trucks handles permit checks with the City of Knoxville, identifies the best parking spots for service trucks, streamlines mobile ordering and pickup, and delivers a clear cost analysis that fits your production budget. Food truck catering also cuts down on waste—no more half-eaten box lunches piling up on set.

Let Best Food Trucks eliminate the mealtime guesswork so you can focus on getting the perfect shot. For studio food truck catering in Knoxville, nobody serves a crew better.

Fueling Knoxville’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time

Booking a food truck for your Knoxville studio shoot isn’t just convenient—it’s a direct investment in the Scruffy City’s small-business community. Every truck that pulls up to your set is usually owned by a local family or a solo entrepreneur who lives right here in Knox County. From a husband-and-wife team rolling out peach cobbler waffles from South Knoxville to a UT alum grilling hot chicken sliders from a converted orange VW bus, these owners keep your catering dollars circulating on Gay Street, Broadway, and beyond.

Food trucks also tread lightly on the environment—something anyone who hikes House Mountain or kayaks the French Broad can appreciate. Because they cook to order and use compact kitchens, trucks burn less energy than traditional buffet setups and create minimal food waste. Many Knoxville vendors even source produce from regional farms in Jefferson and Sevier Counties, so the tomatoes in your BLT may have been picked just up the road yesterday.

Bottom line: when your production searches “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck Knoxville,” you can serve hot, crowd-pleasing meals while supporting neighbors and keeping East Tennessee green. Reach out to Best Food Trucks and we’ll match you with local culinary talent that makes your shoot—and our city—shine.

I got the cheesesteak combo. It was pretty good. Fries were a bit too crunchy and overcooked for my liking.

the burger from Badass Burger Buggy was one of the best burgers I have ever had. Even after bringing it home it was still hot which made it taste even better. Nikki's Sweets are always very good and we like trying a new dessert each time.
