Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Knoxville Studio—Served Right On-Set!

Whether you’re shooting a commercial off Kingston Pike or wrapping a feature film on the banks of the Tennessee River, Best Food Trucks delivers flawless studio food truck catering in Knoxville. Our local team knows the city’s permitting maze as well as we know the back roads to Oak Ridge, so your crew meals stay on schedule—even when production doesn’t. We’ll craft rotating daily menus, pinpoint the best parking spots along Neyland Drive or in Old North Knoxville, streamline online ordering and pickup, and hand-select vendors who carry full Knox County permits and insurance.

Want smoky East Tennessee barbecue? We can roll in Smoked Pickle Barbecue or the legendary Clean Smoke BBQ. Craving bold Mexican flavors between takes? Dia De Foods will fire up fresh tacos faster than you can call “Action!” Burger fans on set? Hamburger Hill Food Truck stacks towering patties that keep gaffers and grips fueled all night. And for a comforting carb-load before that big crane shot, Penne For Your Thoughts dishes out made-to-order Italian classics.

On Location Catering catering

Fueling Your Shoot & Knoxville’s Small-Biz Scene

Booking a food truck for your Knoxville studio set does more than quiet rumbling stomachs—it pumps money straight back into the Scruffy City. Nearly every truck we partner with is a home-grown operation, run by chefs who live in neighborhoods like Bearden, Fountain City, and South Knox. When your cast grabs smoked brisket from a local pitmaster or a vegan burrito from a UT alum’s truck, you’re helping a family business pay rent, hire neighbors, and keep Knoxville’s culinary scene thriving from Market Square to Marble City.

Food trucks also tread lighter on our beloved Tennessee hillsides than traditional catering. These kitchens-on-wheels sip far less power than a pop-up commissary, arrive with reusable serving gear, and roll out leaving almost zero waste—perfect for eco-minded productions filming along the French Broad River or inside one of Knoxville’s historic warehouses.

So next time you’re Googling “low-budget film catering Knoxville” during a late-night edit, give Best Food Trucks a call. We’ll deliver crave-worthy meals, keep your carbon footprint small, and make sure every dollar stays Volunteer-strong.

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!

For the price I thought the quesadilla was a little on the small side. Order was ready 20 min after stated pickup time. Everything tasted good though.

The seasoning of the Shrimps, the tenderness of the tenders. The crispness of the fries. Just would've wanted more seasoning on the fries. Delicious

The brisket tacos were phenomenal. The sandwiches were also very good, a little saucier than my preference but I like little to no sauce, that's not a reflection of you guys, but it is all is very delicious.

please bring this one back. All of the sandwiches were great even the tater tots were soft in the middle and crispy on the outside perfect.

Make pictures more appealing- that was a large problem last night. You need a photographer or something to make those pictures were artistic . The pictures of the Philly cheesesteak do not look good and the burgers all look wilted. The taste of the food is not translating in the pictures. Your onion rings are delicious. Chicken fingers are average. You need a honey mustard dipping sauce. Cheeseburger was very good - add a pickle spear on the side. Fries were average Also add more choices than just Coke - and maybe you have them, but it doesn't show up on line.
