Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Tampa Studio Set
Whether you’re filming along the Riverwalk, in a Ybor City warehouse, or inside one of the sound stages at Channelside, Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable studio food truck catering in Tampa. Our local team understands the tight turnaround times that come with film production, and we make sure your cast and crew are fueled up fast—without sacrificing flavor.
From award-winning barbecue at Wicked Oak Barbeque to melty goodness from The Melt Machine Grilled Cheese, we curate rotating daily menus that even the pickiest gaffer or grip will rave about. Craving Latin flair? Coco's Latin Cuisine Food Truck brings the sazón. Need bacon on everything? Bacon Boss #2 has you covered. And when the 3 p.m. slump hits, our friends at The Taco Boss wake everyone up with fresh-pressed tortillas and house-made salsas.
We handle it all: vetting every truck for permits and insurance, mapping the best parking spots for quick service, setting up online ordering so your PAs aren’t stuck taking lunch counts, and giving you a clear cost breakdown that stays on budget. Because meals come straight from the truck window, Tampa’s “Lightning Capital” afternoon storms won’t soak a table full of boxed lunches—and you’ll generate less packaging waste than traditional catering.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering in Tampa, so you can keep the cameras rolling and the crew smiling.
Backing Tampa’s Small Businesses
When you book a Tampa food truck for your next studio shoot, you’re feeding more than a hungry crew—you’re fueling the local economy. Most of the trucks we partner with are family-run operations based in neighborhoods like Seminole Heights, Westchase, Hyde Park, and Ybor City. Your catering dollars stay right here in Hillsborough County, helping owners hire neighbors, source produce from Plant City farms, and keep their smokers rolling down I-275.
Food trucks are also a greener choice for on-set meals. Self-contained kitchens draw minimal power, and serving straight from the window means no mountains of chafing dishes or landfill-bound clamshells. Pair that with Best Food Trucks’ digital ordering system—no paper tickets, no wasted food—and your production’s carbon footprint drops faster than a summer storm over Bayshore Boulevard.
So the next time you search “low-budget film catering Tampa” or “studio food truck near me,” hit us up. You’ll get hot, rave-worthy food, support the 813’s independent entrepreneurs, and keep your set running smoothly—all before the director can yell “Rolling!”

Amazing burgers and great value! True smash burger that gives that burger feel. Comeback sauce took it over the top 11/10

The listing should specify that addition of ranch in the boom boom wrap will come as a little container instead of being added into the wrap. Also, the wrap was cut with aluminum foil on it which resulted in fragments of aluminum in the wrap.

The staff was super friendly. We were looking forward to the fresh cut fries but they were cold. The burger buns were super fresh.
