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.

The brisket melt is absolutely delicious. We loved the seasoning on the fresh cut fries. This is definitely our favorite sandwich truck that comes to Talavera.

I was just a little disappointed that they didn't have the chess pie that I had ordered. The red beans and rice were really good.

The turkey burger was good. I don't eat onions and have allergies to that so I scraped them off. There wasn't a space to request ti have them removed. Perhaps, an "instructions" space can be added for that particular burger as well. Many have allergies to foods. Thank you!🙂
