Best Food Trucks brings years of on-set experience to your studio food truck catering in Santa Barbara, making sure every crew member—from the early-morning gaffer to the late-night editor—gets a fresh, flavorful meal right on schedule.

Supporting Santa Barbara’s Small Food-Truck Businesses
When you book studio food truck catering in Santa Barbara, you’re doing more than feeding a hungry crew—you’re keeping our city’s independent culinary scene thriving. Most of the trucks we partner with are owned by lifelong locals who shop the Saturday Farmers Market for Goleta greens, source ciabatta from Our Daily Bread on Milpas, and season their tri-tip with pinot-soaked oak chips from nearby Santa Ynez wineries. Every taco, bánh mì, or vegan bowl served on your set funnels dollars back into the neighborhoods that make Santa Barbara special—from the Funk Zone to the Mesa.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-minded choice for on-set meals. Because they cook to order, trucks use less energy than traditional buffet lines and slash single-use waste—perfect for productions committed to the city’s “Keep Santa Barbara Beautiful” ethos. So the next time you’re Googling “low-budget film catering near me,” give Best Food Trucks a call. We’ll deliver delicious, locally sourced fare that keeps your cast, crew, and the Santa Barbara economy rolling.

I probably would not have gotten the mac and cheese bites if i knew there would be thyme in them. That's on me though, and now I know for next time. Really well-seasoned burger and I liked the normal mac that was on it!

Be attentive to ordering apps, so that food is ready in a fair amount of time. And, have To-Go packaging ready for safe transport.
