Hot, Customizable Meals Delivered to Your San Francisco Set

From SoMa sound stages to the historic hangars on Treasure Island, Best Food Trucks is the go-to partner for studio food truck catering in San Francisco. We’ve spent years keeping Bay Area crews on schedule and well fed, so your meal breaks roll as smoothly as your cameras.

Our rotating menus spotlight local legends: wood-fired pies from Mozzeria San Francisco, aromatic biryani and samosas from Mashallah Halal Food Indian and Pakistani, sizzling shawarma from Golden Gate Gyro, Yucatán-style cochinita pibil from Cochinita, and crowd-pleasing Korean BBQ tacos from BBQ KALBI. Whether you’re shooting in the Mission, Dogpatch, or across the Bay in Oakland, we bring a taste of the city’s diverse food scene right to your set.

We handle everything—securing SFDPW permits, mapping the best truck parking on hilly streets, scheduling staggered pickups through our online app, and presenting a detailed cost analysis that keeps your production on budget. Food truck catering for studios in San Francisco also slashes food and packaging waste, helping protect the Bay we all love.

Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your studio. You focus on capturing that perfect Golden Gate light; we’ll keep the crew fueled and happy.

On Location Catering catering

Fueling San Francisco’s Film Sets—and Its Small Businesses

Every time you book studio food truck catering in San Francisco with Best Food Trucks, you’re keeping the city’s independent culinary scene rolling right alongside your cameras. Most of our partner trucks are family-run outfits based everywhere from the Richmond District to Fruitvale; your lunch break helps pay the rent on their commissary kitchens, not a distant corporate headquarters. Think of it as hyper-local economic development, one burrito or bánh mì at a time.

Choosing a food truck over a conventional buffet line is also the greener call for Bay Area productions. Trucks draw far less power than a full catering tent, cut single-use serviceware, and leave behind virtually no food waste—an important win when your set overlooks the fragile wetlands around Candlestick Point or the windswept dunes at Fort Funston. So the next time “film set catering near me” flashes across your production schedule, give us a shout. You’ll feed your crew unforgettable meals and keep San Francisco’s small businesses—and our planet—thriving.

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.

Generous portions, well seasoned (not over seasoned), very courteous service under time pressure & walk-up customers, as well as unexpected under staffing. Thank you April's Kitchen. At our house, you're a "do again". ☺️
