Fueling Portland’s Creative Economy—One Food Truck at a Time

Booking food truck catering for studios in Portland, ME isn’t just smart for your budget—it’s a direct investment in the city’s indie spirit. Every truck that rolls up to your set on Marginal Way or at Thompson’s Point is run by a Maine-made small business: family crews who source their lobster from Casco Bay wharfs, their potatoes from Aroostook County, and their coffee beans from local roasteries like Tandem and Coffee By Design. Your cast and crew get hot, memorable meals while Portland’s makers, farmers, and fishermen get paid. That’s a wrap everyone can celebrate.

Food trucks also shrink your production’s footprint. Compared with traditional buffet catering, mobile kitchens sip less energy, require fewer delivery miles, and serve in compostable or reusable ware—ideal for sets filming along the working waterfront or in eco-sensitive spots like Fort Gorges. Pair that with our “order-ahead, pick-up on cue” system and you’ll cut down on wasted food and lost shoot time.

So the next time the line producer Googles “low-budget film catering near me” from a trailer on Peaks Island, remember Best Food Trucks. We’ll bring Portland’s tastiest small businesses straight to your studio door—no fuss, no waste, all Maine.

Everything was awesome! Hogfish meal, sea boppers, and hush puppies were our top three. Would highly recommend the hogfish plate to anyone. Crispy coating yet fish stayed flakey moist. Unbelievably tasty.
