Hot, Customizable Meals for New Jersey Studio Sets

Whether your production is rolling tape in Jersey City, Hoboken’s waterfront sound stages, or a leafy suburb off Route 287, Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable food truck catering for Studio crews in New Jersey. Our on-set service keeps cast and crew well fed without anyone having to brave Turnpike traffic or hunt for parking at a diner.

We collaborate with your production office to build rotating daily menus that respect union meal breaks and satisfy every appetite—from vegan grips to meat-loving gaffers. Our experienced coordinators:

  • Pinpoint the best parking location for each truck, even in tight North Jersey lots.
  • Provide a pre-approved roster of vendors, all fully insured and permitted in the State of New Jersey.
  • Offer online preorder links and QR codes so your crew can grab and go between takes.
  • Deliver a clear cost summary & analysis that keeps your studio catering budget on track.

Looking for local flavor? We work with home-grown Garden State favorites such as Tacos El Poblanito for authentic birria and fish tacos, Brooklyn Burger for stacked Angus patties with that New York swagger, and the legendary Dark Side Of The Moo when your crew wants an exotic yak or bison burger. Craving classic boardwalk bites? Jersey Johnny's Grill slings deep-fried hot dogs and chili sauce worthy of a Friday-night football game, while Bro-Ritos Food Truck stuffs burritos big enough to power a 14-hour shoot.

Food truck catering also keeps New Jersey green by cutting down on food and packaging waste—no more disposable trays piling up at the dumpster. Let Best Food Trucks handle your studio catering so you can focus on getting the perfect shot. Lights, camera, lunch!

Supporting Small Businesses Across the Garden State

Booking a Best Food Trucks vendor for your New Jersey studio set does more than keep the crew happy—it keeps hard-working local chefs in business. Nearly every truck in our lineup is a mom-and-pop operation based right here in the Garden State, from a Korean-Mex taco rig out of Fort Lee to a vegan soul-food bus that parks nightly in Asbury Park. When your call sheet lists “food truck catering for studio in New Jersey,” you’re pumping dollars back into hometown economies like Newark’s Ironbound, New Brunswick’s culinary district, and the boardwalk towns down the Shore.

Food trucks are also a naturally greener choice for on-location catering. Because the kitchen is built into the truck, there’s no need for extra generators, buffet warmers, or mountains of disposable pans—just fresh meals handed out in compostable serviceware. Smaller footprints mean lower energy use and less trash, a win for productions looking to meet the sustainability guidelines now standard on SAG-AFTRA and IATSE sets.

So the next time you’re googling “affordable film set catering near me” from a warehouse in Kearny or a backlot in Secaucus, give us a call. We’ll roll up with Jersey-proud eats, keep your budget on track, and let your production shine as a socially responsible partner to the communities that host you.

Food was very good, They started a little late, and the staff did not speak or understand English well so some requests were not understood. Also, you should communicate better with your customers regarding what to expect (prior to the event) and when you send the link to make payment it should give you options not just default to your previous payment method. Thank you.

Sarah's Triple S was a hit at the lunch event. They showed up on time, were friendly, and their cheeseburgers were especially a crowd pleaser. The vegetarian option was helpful to have and the sides were all delicious.

The hamburger meat is delicious. Only complaint is the special instructions were not followed to add extra pickles, but the taste made the difference

Onion rings were fabulous! Chicken as well great. Looking for a bit more variety of burgers besides just bigger or hotter.
