Hot, Customizable Meals for Every San Francisco Studio Set
Whether you’re shooting B-roll on the Embarcadero, locking down a soundstage in SoMa, or filming against the backdrop of the Golden Gate, Best Food Trucks is the fastest way to keep your cast and crew fueled. We specialize in food truck catering for studios in San Francisco, creating rotating daily menus that satisfy vegan techies, gluten-free grips, and the most persnickety lead actors alike.
Our local partners bring the flavor of the Bay right to your basecamp. Imagine a lunch break where the team grabs wood-fired margherita pies from Mozzeria San Francisco, aromatic chicken tikka masala from Mashallah Halal Food Indian and Pakistani, sizzling lamb gyros from Golden Gate Gyro, Yucatán-style cochinita pibil tacos from Cochinita, or Korean BBQ tacos from BBQ KALBI—all without anyone leaving the lot.
From Lucasfilm’s campus in the Presidio to indie shoots on Treasure Island, we handle every detail: identifying the perfect curb space for service, streamlining online ordering and contact-free pickup, verifying permits and insurance with the City of San Francisco, and delivering a clear cost analysis that keeps you on budget. Food truck catering also reduces food and packaging waste—something even Karl the Fog can get behind.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime on set. Your crew stays happy, production stays on schedule, and you get one less thing to worry about. Book your San Francisco studio catering today and taste why the Bay Area is the food truck capital of California.
Fueling San Francisco’s Small Businesses—One Set at a Time
Booking a food truck for your SoMa soundstage or Dogpatch warehouse shoot does more than satisfy hungry talent—it pours money right back into the Bay. Nearly every truck in our rotation is a family-run or solo-owner outfit, from the Richmond District couple hand-rolling dumplings at sunrise to the Sunset surfer who grills sustainably caught fish on his electric rig. Your catering dollars stay local, circulating from Bernal Heights bakeries to Mission commissary kitchens and helping small businesses thrive in San Francisco’s famously competitive food scene.
Food trucks are also a natural fit for the City’s Zero Waste goals. Most of our partners operate energy-efficient kitchens-on-wheels, source compostable serviceware that Recology loves, and prep to order so there’s minimal food waste—no half-eaten hotel pans heading for landfill. Compared with traditional craft-service buffets, that’s a lighter carbon footprint than a bike ride down Market Street.
So the next time you’re Googling “San Francisco studio food truck catering near me,” skip the lukewarm chafing dishes and book a truck that keeps your crew happy, your set green, and the Bay Area economy buzzing.

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". ☺️

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard
