Sizzling, Customizable Meals for Every San Francisco Studio Set

From the sound stages in SoMa to pop-up productions on Treasure Island, Best Food Trucks has spent years keeping Bay Area film crews fueled and focused. Our San Francisco studio food truck catering team builds rotating daily menus that satisfy everyone on set—yes, even the most persnickety eaters hiding out in the fog of the Outer Richmond.

We handle it all: mapping the perfect parking spot near your stage door, streamlining online ordering for tight turnaround meal breaks, vetting every vendor for City & County health permits and insurance, and delivering a transparent cost analysis that fits your production budget. Because food trucks cook to order, you’ll see less wasted food and packaging—a win for our planet and the Bay.

Choose local legends your crew will recognize the moment the window slides open. Think wood-fired Neapolitan pies from Mozzeria San Francisco, aromatic biryani and samosas from Mashallah Halal Food Indian and Pakistani, sizzling shawarma from Golden Gate Gyro, vibrant Yucatán bites via Cochinita, or Korean BBQ tacos that disappear faster than Karl the Fog courtesy of BBQ KALBI. We’ll rotate trucks to keep every 6 a.m. call time or golden-hour wrap fresh and exciting.

Let Best Food Trucks remove the guesswork from your San Francisco studio catering so you can keep cameras rolling. Hot meals, zero drama—just another day on set.

On Location Catering catering

Supporting San Francisco’s Small & Mighty Food Truck Community

Booking studio food truck catering in San Francisco doesn’t just fill your crew’s stomachs—it keeps our city’s independent culinary scene thriving. Every truck we roll onto your set is run by a Mission-based couple, a Bayview family, or a solo chef who perfected their recipe at Off the Grid before taking the leap into business ownership. Your lunch order helps them pay rent, hire local prep cooks, and source produce from the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market instead of a national distributor.

Food trucks are also a planet-friendly upgrade for production catering. Because they cook to order, generators idle for shorter periods, compostable service ware replaces chafing dishes, and leftover waste is almost nil—perfect for studios following the City & County of San Francisco’s zero-waste guidelines.

So the next time your line producer searches “low-budget film catering near me” while scrambling for a SoMa shoot, send them our way. Best Food Trucks will park a socially responsible, hyper-local feast right outside the stage door and keep your San Francisco studio set rolling.

Hired them for a company Birthday / Retirement luncheon. Staff arrived on time, was very friendly, and very organized. From the minute they parked the vehicle they were ready to begin service. This was a seamless service and the ordering was easy. Everything was prepaid in advance and so no uncertainties were looming. The food was delicious, good selection of meats, and various options of items in the burrito to make it customized. The quote was for Burritos, Quesadillas, and Tacos, but when they arrived the sign on the window stated Tacos and Burritos only; so there was some miscommunication there. But it didn't really phase us too much. I will definitely be hiring this truck again in the future.

The texture of the dough was amazing! It was crunchy yet still light and pillowy. The char was perfect too.
