Hot, Customizable Meals for Every New York Studio Set!
Whether you’re breaking for lunch at Steiner Studios on the Brooklyn waterfront, fueling a late-night shoot in Kaufman Astoria, or setting up craft services in Chelsea Piers, Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable studio food truck catering New York has to offer. We’ve spent years feeding NYC film and television crews, so we know how to keep talent, grips, and PAs happy while staying on schedule—even when the MTA isn’t.
Our team will collaborate with your production office to build rotating daily menus that please vegans, carnivores, and everyone in between. We’ll scout the perfect curb space on crowded New York blocks, manage online ordering and timed pickup, and confirm that every vendor carries up-to-date NYC DOHMH permits and insurance. You’ll receive a clear cost breakdown before the first scene is shot, ensuring our plan fits your budget and your call sheet.
From Broadway pilots to blockbuster features, nothing boosts on-set morale like signature local trucks: crave crispy chicken from Yankee Doodle Dandy's, grandma-style slices from Jiannetto's Pizza, and Angus patties smashed to perfection at Smash Burger. Need a vegan-friendly option with international flair? MAKINA Cafe brings authentic Ethiopian-Eritrean bowls that keep the crew energized. And when the director calls “Martini shot,” reward everyone with soft-serve from the iconic Carvel Ice Cream Truck.
Food truck catering for studios in New York isn’t just convenient—it’s sustainable. Mobile kitchens cut down on food and packaging waste, reduce multiple delivery runs, and keep your set footprint green. Let Best Food Trucks handle every detail of your New York studio catering so you can focus on getting the perfect take.
Fueling NYC’s Creative Economy—One Truck at a Time
Booking a food truck for your New York studio isn’t just about fast, delicious meals between takes—it’s a vote for the city’s small-business community. Each truck that rolls up to Silvercup or 30 Rock is typically run by a Queens mom-and-pop, a Brooklyn culinary school grad, or a Bronx family that has perfected their recipe for generations. Your catering dollars stay right here in the five boroughs, circulating back into neighborhood bodegas, commercial kitchens, and union suppliers.
Mobile kitchens are also a greener choice for Gotham’s famously tight sets. A single truck—powered by modern, energy-efficient equipment—replaces multiple box lunches and cut-and-dump deliveries, slashing packaging waste and idling van traffic on already-packed avenues. We work only with vendors who carry compostable serviceware and current NYC Department of Health “A” grades, so your production can stay compliant and eco-friendly in one shot.

The food, service, and support were incredible. They were so good that we wanted to add another day of rental for the next day at our production, but they were already booked. Will definitely work with them again.

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.

I wish there was another slice of tomato on my loaded grilled cheese, it was a lot of bread. The kale salad was very tasty. Thanks
