Hot, Customizable Meals Delivered to Your Richmond Studio Set!
Shooting a feature along the James River, a series in Shockoe Bottom, or a commercial in Scott’s Addition? Best Food Trucks is Richmond’s trusted partner for on-set food truck catering. We’ve spent years feeding busy film crews, so we understand the tight call sheets, ever-changing headcounts, and discerning palates that come with studio productions. Our Richmond studio food truck catering service handles everything—designing rotating daily menus, mapping the best service spots on your lot, streamlining pre-orders and walk-ups, vetting every vendor for City of Richmond permits and insurance, and giving you a clear cost analysis that keeps the producer happy.
We also tap into RVA’s vibrant mobile kitchen scene to keep meals exciting all week long. Kick off Monday with juicy burgers and warm funnel cakes from Mobile Yum Yum. Treat the crew on Tuesday to Mediterranean sunshine in every bite from Bikini Panini. Need a mid-week flavor punch? La Bête rolls up with Caribbean-Creole New American favorites. For classic comfort that keeps gaffers grinning, book Fantabulous Chef Service LLC or the ever-popular Curbside Creations.
From Carytown to the Richmond Raceway backlot, we make sure your meal breaks run on time, keep waste to a minimum, and give your cast and crew the flavor of the River City. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your studio—so you can call “action” knowing everyone’s fed and ready.
Fuel RVA Creativity While Backing Richmond’s Small Businesses
Choosing Best Food Trucks for your Richmond studio catering does more than keep your cast and crew happy—it keeps RVA’s entrepreneurial spirit alive. Every truck we roll onto set is owned by a local family or solo chef who built their brand right here, from Fulton Hill commissaries to weekend pop-ups at the South of the James Farmers Market. Your catering dollars circulate through our community, helping neighbors pay rent on Brookland Park storefronts, hire part-time VCU students, and source produce from Hanover County farms.
Food trucks also give eco-friendly film productions a leg up. A single self-contained kitchen on wheels uses far less power than a row of chafing dishes and warming cabinets, and our vendors rely on compostable serviceware to keep disposables out of the James. Fewer generators, less trash, and zero food waste—because pre-ordering through our Richmond studio food truck catering portal lets us cook only what your call sheet needs.
So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” or “on-set food trucks Richmond,” remember that booking with Best Food Trucks means unforgettable meals, a lighter carbon footprint, and a stronger local economy. Let’s make your shoot—and our city—even better, one plate at a time.

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!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Chef Niki and her food truck! She was so flexible and easy to work with, the food was delicious and served quickly with a smile. She came early and was set up and ready to go when our event started.

The Mac and cheese could have been a bit creamier and I was surprised that the chicken tenders didn't come with fries. The meat was fabulous

The pies were amazing. A little too rich to eat all at once but I am looking forward to finishing it later. The lemonade was delicious also.

I requested sweet sauce on the side, but pork/fries already drizzled with a more spicy sauce. Dish was a little scarce on the pork.
