Hot, Customizable Meals for New York Studio Sets—Delivered On Cue!
From sunrise call times in Astoria’s Kaufman Studios to midnight shoots on a Brooklyn soundstage, Best Food Trucks has fed film and TV crews all over the five boroughs. Our New York studio catering team knows how to keep hungry gaffers, grips, and A-list talent happy without slowing the schedule.
We’ll curate rotating daily menus that feel as fresh as a stroll through Union Square Greenmarket. Craving all-American comfort? We’ll park Yankee Doodle Dandy's right outside the loading dock. Need a soft-serve pick-me-up for an afternoon shoot in SoHo? Mister Softee is ready to roll. For pizza scenes (or just pizza fiends), Jiannetto's Pizza serves award-winning grandma slices, while Smash Burger sears Angus patties faster than you can call “Action!” Looking for something global? MAKINA Cafe brings Ethiopian-Eritrean flavors that turn lunch break into an adventure.
Our concierge team handles everything—permits with the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, parking logistics on crowded Midtown streets, touch-free ordering, and detailed cost analyses that respect your production budget. Food truck catering also cuts down on food and packaging waste, making your set greener than Central Park.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your New York studio. With us on set, catering is one less thing for you to worry about—so you can keep the cameras rolling.
Fueling Your Shoot—and New York’s Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your studio set isn’t just convenient; it’s a direct investment in the city’s pulse. Most New York food trucks are run by solo chefs, immigrant families, and second-generation hustlers who keep the boroughs flavorful. When you roll up The Rolling Dumpling or Empanada Papa to your Long Island City soundstage, you’re pumping dollars back into Queens and Brooklyn—not a national conglomerate.
Food trucks also fit right into the city’s push for greener productions. They draw less power than a full service line, serve in compostable trays, and leave fewer leftovers than buffet tables—meaning your eco-scorecard looks as sharp as your dailies. So the next time you Google “film studio food truck catering NYC,” skip the bland corporate spread and give Best Food Trucks a call. Your crew gets hot, memorable meals, and New York’s home-grown businesses get another day on set. Everybody wins—cut, print, wrap!

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

This is the best burger truck. Everything we ordered was really fresh. Please keep Smash and Roll on Talavera’s list of trucks.

The fries were cooked well and love the seasoning, I just prefer thinner fries. I also think it would be better if the bun was toasted. Otherwise great meal.
