Hot, Customizable Meals for Rochester Studios—Delivered On-Set, On-Time!
From sunrise shoots on Lake Ontario to late-night takes inside the old Kodak soundstages, Best Food Trucks keeps every Rochester film crew fed and focused. We specialize in studio food truck catering in Rochester, NY, building rotating daily menus that match your call sheet and budget. Our local vendor roster features crowd-pleasers like the crispy chicken creations from Roc City Sammich, Mediterranean favorites at Eat Greek, gourmet sliders and brownies from Chefs mobile kitchen, and flavorful halal plates via Halal N Out or its sister truck Halal-N-Out. With options this varied, even the pickiest grip or producer will find a new favorite.
We handle everything—mapping the best parking spot on East Avenue, verifying permits and insurance, streamlining online ordering, and providing a transparent cost breakdown. Food truck catering also cuts waste, keeping Rochester’s parks and the Genesee River gorge as clean as your set. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering in Rochester so you can concentrate on capturing that perfect shot.
Fueling Rochester’s Film Sets—and Our Local Economy
Choosing food truck catering for your Rochester studio shoot isn’t just convenient—it’s a direct investment in the Flower City’s small-business community. Each truck that rolls up to your soundstage on University Avenue or location out in Bushnell’s Basin is owned by a Rochester family, RIT grad, or solo culinary entrepreneur who reinvests right back into Monroe County. From the husband-and-wife team behind Roc City Sammich to the veteran-owned Halal N Out crew, these mobile kitchens keep our city’s creative and culinary scenes thriving.
Food trucks are also a greener way to feed cast and crew. Their compact kitchens sip less energy than traditional on-site caterers, and many Rochester vendors compost scraps through pick-ups at the Public Market or recycle cooking oil with local biodiesel partners. Fewer chafing dishes and no single-use buffet pans mean less trash headed for High Acres Landfill—good news for anyone shooting B-roll along the Genesee River Gorge or at Turning Point Park.
So the next time your producer Googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “Rochester studio food trucks,” call Best Food Trucks. We’ll line up a fleet of hometown favorites, keep your footprint light, and make every lunch break feel like a mini trip to the Lilac Festival—minus the parking hassle.

That signature burger is always amazing. I don't love the shoestring fries, but I'm not going to rate anything less than five as a result of it because the burger is so good.

I always love the taco nachos. This was the first time that we placed an order for the pulled pork Quesadilla. It did not disappoint in any way. It was delicious!!! We love The Nacho wagon!

We did a pre order online and didn't know the burgers came with fries - not an issue just something that would be nice to know because we ordered additional fries then

Freshness. Crispy oinion rings and fries. Burgers were perfectly built. Only critique would be on the pricey side.

Food is 10/10. I look forward to ordering every time it's by the office. The staff working the truck are so kind too.

The crispy crunchy bread. Also like that it doesn't come with a side because the sandwich is plenty by itself.

When we ordered in September, it was awesome! This time, there were 4 misshapen ribs (one huge, 2 medium, one bite size). The sausage also tasted overcooked and was sliced into small pieces (nothing like the last time). The is was the first time that we had food requested at the start of the shift, and not at 7:00 PM, and it seemed as if this was leftover from a prior shift and 'dumped' on us. Was still tasty with the sauce, but disappointed in this trip (and we raved about Logan's to many friends.....)

The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.
