Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Traverse City Studio Crew
Best Food Trucks has spent years fueling long shoot days, and now we’re bringing that expertise north to Cherry Capital. Whether your set is tucked along the Grand Traverse Bay shoreline or on location near the Old Mission Peninsula, our Traverse City studio catering service keeps cast and crew energized with fresh, locally inspired food truck fare.
We’ll collaborate with your production team to build rotating daily menus that highlight beloved local trucks like Lost Village Pierogi: The Polished Cuban Grill (perfect for hearty Polish plates between takes) and taco favorite King Wubbz. From early-morning call times to late-night wrap parties, every dish is made to order and timed so meal breaks flow as smoothly as a sunset shot over West Bay.
Our Traverse City food truck catering experts handle it all—scouting the best parking spots near your soundstage, streamlining mobile ordering and pickup, and vetting every vendor for permits, insurance, and health-department compliance. You’ll receive a clear cost analysis that stays on budget, plus you’ll reduce food and packaging waste compared with traditional buffet service—great news for both the production ledger and the crystal-clear waters of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
When you partner with Best Food Trucks for studio catering in Traverse City, you remove one more logistical headache. Focus on the next scene, and we’ll make sure lunch is ready when the director yells, “Cut!”
Supporting Traverse City’s Small Businesses
Booking food truck catering for your Traverse City studio isn’t just the easiest way to keep cast and crew happy—it’s an investment in the local community. Most of our partner trucks are family-run operations that you’ll spot every summer parked off Front Street or serving late-night bites after the Traverse City Film Festival. When you bring those same trucks to set, you’re pouring production dollars straight back into hometown entrepreneurs instead of a national chain.
Food trucks also line up perfectly with the eco-minded spirit of northern Michigan. Compared with hauling in chafing dishes and disposable trays, mobile kitchens draw less power, produce fewer single-use plastics, and source fresh ingredients from places like the Sara Hardy Farmers Market or neighboring cherry orchards. That means a lower carbon footprint for your shoot and cleaner waters for Grand Traverse Bay.
So the next time someone on the walkie asks for “low-budget film catering near me,” answer with Traverse City’s best food truck catering. You’ll score crave-worthy meals, keep the accounting team on budget, and give a high-five to the small businesses that make the Cherry Capital taste so good.

It was the best gluten-free pizza I've had since New York City and the chocolate Dubai dessert was amazing. I hope they come to Starkey ranch again soon!!

Once home, we discovered that we weren't given the broth that was to accompany the Birrias or the sauce and limes that were to accompany the tacos. Disappointing...
