Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Portland, ME Studio Crew
When the cameras are rolling in Portland’s vibrant arts scene—whether you’re shooting a commercial in the Old Port, a feature film on the Eastern Prom, or a streaming series near Thompson’s Point—you need food truck catering that’s fast, flexible, and unmistakably Maine. Best Food Trucks specializes in food truck catering for studios in Portland (ME), bringing locally loved trucks straight to set so your cast and crew stay fueled and focused.
We’ll collaborate with your production team to build rotating daily menus that keep things fresh from the first call time to the final wrap. Think gooey comfort classics from PB&ME, over-the-top dogs from Mainely Hotdogs, sweet and savory crêpes at sunrise courtesy of Crepe Elizabeth, crispy Nashville-style tenders from Frozen Rooster, and hearty coastal favorites by Salty Boyz. Every truck is fully vetted for city permits, insurance, and ServSafe certifications, so you can focus on getting the perfect shot of Casco Bay instead of worrying about compliance.
Our Portland studio catering service streamlines ordering and pickup—no more long buffet lines that eat into valuable shooting hours. Crew members simply pre-order on their phones, swing by the truck during their scheduled meal break, and head back to set with piping-hot plates. Less downtime, less waste, more happy bellies.
Best Food Trucks will also provide a transparent cost analysis that fits your budget, plus eco-smart packaging to keep our beloved Back Cove and working waterfront beautiful. From sunrise breakfasts at Bug Light to late-night wraps in Bayside, trust us to make mealtime the easiest part of your production day.
Fueling Portland, ME’s Small-Business Scene
Booking a food truck for your studio set isn’t just the tastiest move you can make—it’s an investment in Portland’s own makers and doers. Every truck we dispatch is a family-run or owner-operated small business, whether it’s a Munjoy Hill couple slinging lobster grilled cheese or a Deering High grad serving Bao buns inspired by Portland’s sister city of Shinagawa. Your catering dollars stay right here in the 207, circulating through local roasters like Coffee By Design, farmers from the Scarborough Marsh, and fishermen unloading at Widgery Wharf.
Sustainability matters on and off camera, and Portland’s green standards are some of the strictest in New England. Our partner trucks run energy-efficient equipment, compost with Garbage to Garden, and serve in recyclable or biodegradable serviceware that keeps Back Cove looking postcard-perfect. Compared with traditional buffet setups, food trucks cut fuel usage, food waste, and rental needs—an eco-win that will make your production’s green-room report shine.
So the next time your production coordinator Googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “food truck catering for studios in Portland ME,” remember that Best Food Trucks delivers delicious meals, a lighter footprint, and real support for the small businesses that make Maine taste like nowhere else.

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

I ordered noodles with a side of chicken. On the description of the noodles it says it comes with grilled vegtables and there were none.

Ashley was awesome! She checked in days beforehand to coordinate proper timing and setup, and she endured the extreme heat to provide great food and friendly service for four hours. People really enjoyed the tacos and nacho selections. Outstanding addition to our house party!
