Hot, Customizable Meals — Ready When Your Portland, ME Studio Calls “Lunch!”

From indie shoots on Munjoy Hill to big-budget productions parked along Portland’s historic waterfront, Best Food Trucks has dialed in film crew catering for Maine’s creative scene. We coordinate rotating, locally loved menus, scout the perfect service spots at your soundstage or on-location set, streamline online ordering and pickup, and vet every vendor for Portland city permits, insurance, and ServSafe certifications. You’ll receive a clear cost analysis that keeps your craft-services budget on track, plus the eco-bonus of fewer chafing dishes and disposable pans clogging up the recycling at Back Cove.

Need hearty American comfort food at 11 a.m.? We’ll roll in PB&ME. Craving classic ball-park bites for a night shoot? Mainely Hotdogs has your crew covered. For a lighter pick-me-up, Crepe Elizabeth flips sweet and savory crêpes faster than you can yell “quiet on set.” Mediterranean bowls from Falafel Mafia keep energy high, while Mobile Musette delivers dock-fresh seafood that would make any Wharf Street local proud.

Whether you’re filming a coastal thriller or a commercial downtown, let Best Food Trucks remove the guesswork from mealtime. Portland, ME studio catering has never been easier—or tastier.

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

Choosing food truck catering for your Portland, ME studio set isn’t just the tastiest call sheet add-on—it’s an investment in the city’s tight-knit small-business scene. Every truck we dispatch, from an East End espresso rig to a Bayside bánh mì cart, is owned by a Maine family or solo entrepreneur who keeps their dollars circulating from Forest Avenue farmers’ markets to the wharves of Casco Bay.

Food trucks also score high marks with any green-minded production coordinator. Modern mobile kitchens sip far less energy than a traditional buffet build-out, roll in with compostable serviceware, and leave you with fewer trash bags to haul down Commercial Street. Pair that with our digital ordering system—no paper tickets cluttering the soundstage—and you’ve got an eco-smart solution that even Portland’s Buy Local crowd would applaud.

So the next time your location manager Googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering Portland ME,” skip the chafing dishes and call Best Food Trucks. We’ll bring the flavor, keep the footprint small, and give your cast and crew another reason to love shooting in Vacationland.

The food was absolutely amazing—the meats were tender and smoky, and every side dish was flavorful. The service team was outstandingly professional, friendly, and efficient, ensuring all our guests were served quickly and with a smile. Most importantly, the entire event went off without a single issue. Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse delivered incredible food and zero stress, making them the absolute highlight of our day!

My husband and I each had a fried chicken sandwich- the classic one and the one with cheese, lettuce and tomato. These were the best chicken sandwiches! We liked them better than Chick fil A!!

Piccolo Pizzetta’s pizza truck is truly wonderful! Their New York–style pizza is absolutely delicious—full of flavor, and so authentic. I did have to put it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes to get it super crispy as I prefer. And those zeppoles? They took me straight back to my childhood at a Manhattan pizzeria and the San Gennaro Festival. Such nostalgic, delightful bites! I definitely recommend it if you're craving genuine New York flavor right here in Epperson! 🍕💛

There were three of us. We all had different foods but all of us loved them-we had one Heat burger with onion rings that both folks loved. One person got the veggie burger-I had a taste and we both loved the flavors. I had the Mediterranean salad. I enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and the unexpected flavors of the broccoli and cauliflower.

The brisket melt was one of the best I’ve ever had. The cheese 🧀 was a nice bonus. The staff was super friendly.
