Backing St. Louis Small Businesses, One Food Truck at a Time
Every truck we roll onto your set is a St. Louis–owned operation—picture second-generation pitmasters from North County, a husband-and-wife bánh mì truck that usually parks on Cherokee Street, or a Benton Park pastry chef who traded brick-and-mortar overhead for wheels after 2020. When you book food truck catering for studios in St. Louis, you keep production dollars circulating right here in the Lou, fueling neighborhood growth instead of national chains.
Food trucks are also lighter on the planet. Their compact kitchens sip far less electricity than a traditional craft-services tent, and because meals are cooked to order, we slash the half-eaten chafing-dish waste that piles up behind the soundstage. Best Food Trucks partners with city recycling programs to compost fryer oil and eco-serviceware, so your shoot stays sustainable from first call to final cut.
Searching for “low-budget film catering near me” that still nails the flavor take after take? Hit us up. We’ll line up eco-friendly, community-powered St. Louis food trucks that fit your call sheet, your budget, and your commitment to supporting small businesses.

The food from Dragon's Den Cafe was delicious! We loved the uniqueness of the dishes, as well as the variety of offerings. Even the burgers weren't just burgers-they were unique and delicious in their own right. The variety of coffees and energy drinks was a definite plus. The staff was wonderful, too! We highly recommend Dragon's Den Cafe!

not one complaint about the food or service. Operators of the truck were very personable. I would and will recommend to others. Only thing i would add is some side heat on the spice. Some expressed the taste is great but would have liked to add some heat on the side

That was just about the best chicken I have ever had. The crunch, the taste, the moisture was all delicious.

The food was delicious The fries were good and I was late picking up so if I was on time and the food was hot I can't imagine how scrumptious it all would have been. I had the briscuit and my husband had the Philly cheese steak and they were both filling enough that we could save half each for tomorrow's lunch. I got an order of boom boom sauce just so I could know whether I should order the sandwich that has it the next time. I think I will; it has just enough of a kick, but not too much that it will cause me heartburn. Loved it.

The spice levels were 1-5 I chose 1 (I don't like very spicy foods). However, I found it to be quite spicy which is why I rated it a four. Otherwise the food was very well made.
