Hot, Customizable Studio Meals in the Heart of New Orleans!

Whether you’re filming on the backlot in Elmwood, capturing B-roll along Magazine Street, or setting up lights in a warehouse in Bywater, Best Food Trucks brings first-class food truck catering for studios in New Orleans right to your set. Our local team understands the unique rhythm of Crescent City productions—tight call sheets, unpredictable weather, and, of course, the expectation that every meal tastes amazing. We’ll coordinate rotating daily menus infused with NOLA flair, find the best parking spots for quick service, streamline online ordering and pickup, verify every vendor’s permits and insurance, and deliver a clear cost breakdown that keeps your budget in line.

From smoky barbecue off the big blue NeauxLA RolLA bus to the down-home comfort plates of Creole Tomateaux, we’ll satisfy even the most persnickety eater on set. Craving Latin flavor between takes? La Cocinita NOLA slings legendary arepas and churros that keep crew morale sky-high. Need scratch-made Southern goodness? Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC and Kenny’s Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux plate up gumbo and étouffée that taste like grandma’s Sunday supper.

Food truck catering reduces food and packaging waste—less Styrofoam, more eco-friendly compostables—so your production can earn green points while keeping the city’s streets as clean as a freshly swept parade route after a second line. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your studio set in New Orleans. We’ll handle the logistics, you roll camera and capture that NOLA magic.

Fueling New Orleans’ Small Businesses—One Set at a Time

Booking food truck catering for studios in New Orleans does more than keep your cast and crew happy—it keeps money circulating right here in the Crescent City. Nearly every truck that rolls onto your lot is a family-run operation, from a husband-and-wife gumbo team out of Gentilly to a Tremé baker who still uses her grandmother’s beignet recipe. Your lunch break becomes their livelihood, strengthening neighborhoods from Algiers Point to the edge of the French Quarter.

Choosing a food truck over a traditional buffet line is also an eco-win. Modern rigs run high-efficiency equipment, portion precisely through our online ordering system, and serve in compostable packaging—meaning fewer generators humming and far less trash piled up next to the grip truck. It’s the sustainable way to feed a production without blowing the budget or littering our beloved streets—because nobody wants a stray Styrofoam box floating down Bayou St. John.

So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” while blocking off Chartres Street, skip the bland box lunches and let Best Food Trucks line up a parade of locally owned trucks. You’ll taste authentic NOLA flavor, power the local economy, and keep your set as green as City Park after a summer rain.

Everything. Only recommendation would be to have regular tartar sauce for catfish along with the sauce it comes with.

The Italian sausage sandwich was great with the peppers, and it was nice to have a cooked vegetable option with the green beans. It was made just like how I'd cook it up in my own kitchen.

The chicken tacos were great, with awesome flavor, along with the fries that were nice and fresh with the added extra seasoning! I enjoyed my lunch today for sure! 🤗

The sauce was just the right amount of sweet, the combination of the crispy crust and warm melted cheese was perfect and the pepperoni added a nice spice to round it out. 😋yum

I ordered the Lemonade cupcake. I loved the balance between the sweet of the icing and the sour of the lemon! It was so delicious!!!

Amazing crust, great cheese and pepperoni. Sauce tasted great too, but I would like a bit more on the pizza

Stephen L.

Pizza was perfectly cooked with high quality ingredients and you could tell they make their own crust and sauce, would definitely order from them again. Pickup went smoothly and order was ready at the requested time.

Very tasty! The seasoning on the fries has a nice kick to it. Burger was way bigger than I expected and cooked just the way I like it.
