Hot, Customizable Meals on Set—Right Here in New York!
Best Food Trucks is New York City’s one-stop solution for food truck catering for studio productions—from Williamsburg sound stages to the back lots at Silvercup and Steiner. Our team has spent years feeding cast and crew members who live on tight schedules and even tighter streets, so we know how to keep service quick, compliant, and downright delicious.
We’ll partner with your production office to create rotating menus that please every palate. Think all-American chicken tenders from Yankee Doodle Dandy’s, thin-crust Sicilian slices from Jiannetto’s Pizza, juicy patties from Smash Burger, injera platters at MAKINA Cafe, and a post-wrap scoop from the iconic Carvel Ice Cream Truck. Hungry grips and picky A-listers alike will find something to rave about.
From scouting the best curb space outside Kaufman Astoria to securing permits with the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, we handle every logistical detail. Our digital ordering platform cuts down on lines, minimizes food waste, and provides real-time spend tracking so you stay on budget. All vendors are vetted for insurance, NYC health grades, and set-friendly service speeds.
When you book Best Food Trucks for your New York studio catering, mealtime becomes one less thing to worry about—leaving you free to focus on nailing that next take.
Fueling NYC’s Small Businesses—One Set at a Time
Choosing food truck catering for your New York studio isn’t just a win for your cast and crew—it’s a direct investment in the city’s vibrant small-business scene. From Dominican-owned grills in Washington Heights to fourth-generation pizza makers in Bensonhurst, most NYC food trucks are run by solo entrepreneurs and tight-knit families who rely on your production dollars to keep their wheels (and dreams) turning.
Food trucks also line up perfectly with the city’s push for greener productions. Modern rigs sip less energy than traditional catering kitchens, many run on biodiesel to meet New York’s anti-idling laws, and their concise menus slash food waste. That means you can wrap the day knowing you’ve fed the crew, boosted the five-borough economy, and kept your carbon footprint as small as an East Village walk-up.
So the next time you’re googling “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food trucks in NYC,” remember: Best Food Trucks connects you with local, eco-friendly vendors who’ll make mealtime the most talked-about scene of the day.

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.

We were very happy with the Smash Burger truck. They showed up on time, were very professional, and the food was delicious. I would hire them again. Thank you!

Papa Arepas was a big hit at my office. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, food ordering on their digital kiosk was easy and convenient, and the food was superb! We will definitely be having them back.

The listing should specify that addition of ranch in the boom boom wrap will come as a little container instead of being added into the wrap. Also, the wrap was cut with aluminum foil on it which resulted in fragments of aluminum in the wrap.

The staff was super friendly. We were looking forward to the fresh cut fries but they were cold. The burger buns were super fresh.
