Our rotating daily menus highlight some of the most beloved mobile kitchens in town.

You’ll receive a transparent cost summary that fits your production budget and helps keep Casco Bay just a little greener—food truck catering produces noticeably less food and packaging waste than traditional craft services.

Fueling Portland’s Creative Economy

Every time you book studio food truck catering in Portland, ME with Best Food Trucks, you’re keeping Maine money in Maine pockets. Nearly every truck we dispatch—from the husband-and-wife team at Two Fat Cats on Wheels to the self-taught chef behind Bang Island Tacos—is a locally owned small business. Your craft-service budget goes straight to neighborhood entrepreneurs, not some distant conglomerate, strengthening the very creative community that makes Portland such a magnet for filmmakers.

Sustainability matters here on the rocky coast, and food trucks are an eco-friendly catering choice. With energy-efficient kitchens, minimal packaging, and smart sourcing from Maine farms like Pineland and Crown O’ Maine, our vendors generate a fraction of the waste traditional buffet lines leave behind. Fewer generators humming, fewer trash bags in the dumpster, and a lighter carbon footprint along Back Cove—what’s not to love?

So the next time your production manager Googles “low-budget film catering near me” while racing down Congress Street, point them our way. We’ll deliver crowd-pleasing meals, keep your set on schedule, and give Portland’s small-business scene a well-deserved close-up.
