Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Portland, ME Studio Set!

From feature films shooting on the historic cobblestones of the Old Port to indie productions capturing sunrise over Back Cove, Best Food Trucks is Portland’s top choice for food truck catering for studio crews. Decades in the business have taught us how to keep cast and crew happy, on-schedule, and well-fed—even during those brisk Maine mornings on Munjoy Hill.

Our local team partners with you to craft rotating daily menus, pinpoint the best lot or curbside spot for service, and streamline mobile ordering so everyone can grab a hot meal and get back to the camera. We vet every vendor for the right insurance and City of Portland permits, then deliver a clear cost breakdown that fits your production budget. Plus, food trucks slash food and packaging waste—perfect for eco-minded crews filming along Casco Bay.

Choose from hometown favorites like creamy comfort classics from PB&ME, steamy buns at Mainely Hotdogs, sweet & savory treats from Crepe Elizabeth, vegan fried delights via Fred's Fried Dough, or crispy chicken sandwiches from Frozen Rooster. Whatever your call sheet demands—breakfast, lunch, second meal, or a late-night wrap party—we have a truck that fits the scene.

Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics of studio catering in Portland, ME, so you can focus on capturing that perfect shot.

On Location Catering catering

Fueling Portland’s Studio Sets—and Its Small Businesses

Booking food truck catering for Studio productions in Portland, ME does more than fill call-sheet bellies—it keeps our city’s celebrated indie food scene thriving. Every lobster-roll wagon parked on Marginal Way or taco trailer pulled up beside Thompson’s Point is owned by a local family, a UNH culinary grad, or a former line cook chasing the Casco Bay breeze. When your crew orders lunch, those dollars stay right here on the peninsula, circulating from Monument Square farmers’ markets to late-night prep kitchens in South Portland.

Sustainability matters on set, and Portland crews know it. Food trucks run lean kitchens that sip less power than traditional craft-service buffets and rely on EcoMaine-approved compostables to keep waste out of Back Cove. It’s a perfect match for productions that tout green credentials while filming under the wind turbines of Bayside.

So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food trucks Portland ME,” remember that Best Food Trucks connects you directly to the city’s hardest-working mobile chefs. Support local, shrink your footprint, and serve meals your gaffer will rave about long after the final wrap.

Elevated food truck. Will order again. It was delicious and high quality. Area for improvement: We received a text message it was ready and waited another 15 minutes. Time management needs to be improved. If this happens and everything else remains the same, then they are one of the best food trucks, if not the best, hands down.

Wow this was THE perfect idea for our graduation party. They arrived about 25 minutes prior to our event and was ready t serve immediately. The truck team were so friendly and fast with the food orders, even finding someone if they didn’t hear their name called. Everyone raved about the delicious food. Best part is we didn’t have a ton of catered or homemade food left overs. I will definitely do this again with Wok-O Taco!

I think they should remove the end pieces of the cornbread because the edges are hard. Outside of that, I enjoyed the food. I will buy it again. Thx!

My dish had onions, and I requested no onions. Thankfully, I was not allergic to them. The food and drink were really good
