Hot, Customizable Meals for Your San Francisco Studio Set
From the sound stages of SoMa to on-location shoots in the Presidio and Treasure Island, Best Food Trucks keeps Bay Area film crews fed and focused. Our decades of studio catering experience mean your meal breaks run smoother than a cable car down Market Street. We’ll create rotating daily menus that feel as fresh as the fog rolling in over the Golden Gate, coordinate the best curbside service spots, and handle every permit and insurance detail with City-by-the-Bay precision.
Whether your gaffer is craving wood-fired pies from Mozzeria San Francisco, your director wants bold Indian spice from Mashallah Halal Food Indian and Pakistani, or the whole cast needs a Mediterranean recharge from Golden Gate Gyro, we’ve got you covered. Add in Yucatecan flair courtesy of Cochinita or Korean-fusion favorites from BBQ KALBI, and every palate on set stays happy—even the persnickety talent.
Our streamlined online ordering and pickup system eliminates long lines, so your AD can keep the call sheet on schedule. Plus, food truck catering slashes food and packaging waste, keeping your production as green as Dolores Park on a sunny Sunday. We’ll deliver a detailed cost analysis tailored to your budget, leaving you free to focus on lighting, blocking, and nailing that perfect Bay Bridge shot.
When it comes to studio food truck catering in San Francisco, let Best Food Trucks roll in and take the guesswork out of mealtime. Your crew—and the planet—will thank you.
Supporting Small Businesses—SF Style
Booking a food truck for your San Francisco studio shoot isn’t just the smartest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s a direct investment in the City’s vibrant small-business scene. Every truck we dispatch is owned and operated by Bay Area families, solo chefs, or culinary collectives that got their start at Off the Grid, Spark Social SF, or Friday nights in the Ferry Building lot. Your catering dollars stay right here, circulating from Mission commissary kitchens to Richmond produce stalls and back into the community.
Food trucks also keep your production’s carbon footprint in check. Compact mobile kitchens sip far less power than a pop-up tent city of chafing dishes, and our compostable serviceware meets San Francisco’s zero-waste standards. Fewer generators, fewer trash bags, fewer headaches for your sustainability department—perfect for shoots that want Golden Gate views without Golden Gate glare from the green team.
So the next time “low-budget film catering near me” pops into your search bar at 2 a.m. after a wrap in Dogpatch, remember: one call to Best Food Trucks brings you crowd-pleasing menus, local economic impact, and planet-friendly service all in one delicious package.

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.

There were three of us. We all had different foods but all of us loved them-we had one Heat burger with onion rings that both folks loved. One person got the veggie burger-I had a taste and we both loved the flavors. I had the Mediterranean salad. I enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and the unexpected flavors of the broccoli and cauliflower.
