Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Knoxville Studio Crew
Filming a commercial on Market Square, shooting a pilot near Old City, or wrapping a scene at the historic Tennessee Theatre? Wherever your set lands in Knoxville, Best Food Trucks brings fresh, on-site meals that keep cast and crew fueled and on schedule. We’ve spent years coordinating food truck catering for studios of all sizes, so we know how to match East Tennessee tastes with demanding production timelines.
Our Knoxville studio food truck catering team works hand-in-hand with your production office to craft rotating menus, map the ideal service locations (from Melrose Avenue lots to the warehouses off Magnolia), and streamline ordering—whether you need traditional walk-up service or pre-boxed meals labeled by department. We even handle all permitting with the City of Knoxville, verify insurance, and deliver a clear cost analysis that fits your budget faster than you can say “rolling!”
Need local flavor? We’ll line up crowd-pleasers like the hickory-smoked goodness of Smoked Pickle Barbecue, the pit-master classics from Clean Smoke BBQ, authentic street tacos courtesy of Dia De Foods, smash burgers from Hamburger Hill Food Truck, or scratch-made pasta from Penne For Your Thoughts. With daily menu rotations, even a month-long shoot never feels repetitive.
Choosing food truck catering for your Knoxville studio also lightens your environmental footprint—less packaging, less food waste, and no idling box trucks clogging the lot. Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime so you can focus on hitting your shots, not hunting for lunch.
Fueling Knoxville’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time
Every time you roll cameras on set, you have a chance to roll support toward Knoxville’s own fleet of independent food trucks. Our studio food truck catering program keeps your cast and crew happy and funnels production dollars straight into the hands of local entrepreneurs—from husband-and-wife pit-masters based in Fountain City to the solo chef who perfected his scratch sauce recipe while studying at the University of Tennessee. When you book food truck catering for your Knoxville studio, you’re investing in the very community that gives the Scruffy City its flavor.
Food trucks also fit perfectly with East Tennessee’s “Leave No Trace” mindset. Compact kitchens mean lower energy use than a traditional commissary, and our trucks serve with compostable utensils that keep trash out of the Tennessee River. Fewer generators humming on the lot means clearer audio takes and a lighter carbon footprint—great for your sound team and the Smoky Mountain skyline alike.
So the next time your production coordinator types “film set food truck catering near me” or “low-budget studio catering Knoxville” into a search bar, give us a shout. Best Food Trucks will deliver hot meals, hometown pride, and a greener set—no reshoots required.

Delicious sauce on the Yakatori chicken and I appreciate the option to choose a green salad instead of Mac salad. Speedy order fulfillment too!

Generous portions, well seasoned (not over seasoned), very courteous service under time pressure & walk-up customers, as well as unexpected under staffing. Thank you April's Kitchen. At our house, you're a "do again". ☺️

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard
