Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Portland, ME Studio Set

Shooting a scene in the Old Port, on Munjoy Hill, or out by the Portland Head Light? Best Food Trucks is Portland, Maine’s go-to partner for studio and film crew catering. We understand the tight call sheets, unpredictable weather on Casco Bay, and the ravenous appetites that come with long production days. Our local team keeps every meal break on schedule while serving the fresh, creative flavors that make Portland famous.

We’ll collaborate with your production staff to curate rotating daily menus, secure the best service spots—whether that’s an Eastern Prom parking lot or a quiet corner of Thompson’s Point—streamline mobile ordering and pickup, and vet every vendor for City of Portland permits and insurance. After the last take, you’ll receive a clear cost analysis that fits your budget and helps your accounting team wrap faster than a closing shot at Back Cove.

Best of all, food truck catering is a sustainable choice. Our trucks cook to order, cutting down on food and packaging waste so your set can stay as green as Maine’s pine forests. From breakfast burritos at dawn to late-night craft-beer brats, we make sure every cast and crew member leaves the line satisfied.

Some of Portland’s favorite trucks available for studio catering include:

Mainely Hotdogs – Classic Maine “red snapper” dogs and more, perfect for quick, crowd-pleasing lunches.
PB&ME – American comfort-food nostalgia with gourmet twists that keep energy high between takes.
Frozen Rooster – Crispy fried chicken and spicy tenders that warm up even the coldest winter shoot.
Salty Boyz – Hearty seaside favorites and stick-to-your-ribs mains for hungry gaffers and grips.
Falafel Mafia – Mediterranean bowls and pita pockets that satisfy vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores alike.

Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your Portland, ME studio production. Contact us today and keep the cameras rolling while we keep the crew fed.

Fueling Portland’s Creative Economy

Booking a food truck for your Portland, ME studio set does more than satisfy hunger—it keeps our city’s independent culinary scene thriving. Every lobster-roll slinger and whoopie-pie baker on wheels is a locally owned, family-run small business. When your production hires a truck, the paycheck stays right here in Greater Portland, circulating from Commercial Street farmers’ markets to the artisan shops on Congress Street. It’s studio catering that doubles as hometown support.

Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly choice for film set catering in Portland. Because meals are cooked to order in compact kitchens, trucks use less propane and electricity than traditional buffet setups and generate fewer single-use pans. Most vendors we work with are already composting food scraps under Maine’s sustainability guidelines and offer recyclable or biodegradable serviceware—no towering trash bags outside the soundstage.

The next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” or “food truck catering Portland Maine,” remember that Best Food Trucks can bring a fleet of locally loved vendors to your location—from a foggy Back Cove sunrise shoot to a late-night wrap party on Washington Avenue. Serve memorable food, support Portland small businesses, and keep your production’s carbon footprint as light as a sea breeze off Casco Bay.
