Hot, Customizable Meals in Traverse City—Ready the Moment the Director Yells “Cut!”
Whether you’re filming a sunrise scene on Old Mission Peninsula, rehearsing lines along the Boardman River, or blocking a late-night shoot behind the historic State Theatre, Best Food Trucks keeps Traverse City crews fueled and focused. Our team has spent years perfecting on-location food truck catering, so your meal breaks run as smoothly as your takes.
We collaborate with production managers to build rotating daily menus that showcase local favorites—think cherry-infused sauces and Great Lakes whitefish—while still pleasing vegan, gluten-free, and downright picky palates. From plotting the most efficient serving spots at the studio lot to streamlining our online ordering and pickup process, we handle every detail. We also vet every vendor for permits, insurance, and health certifications, then deliver a clear cost summary that keeps you on budget.
Looking for crowd-pleasers? Traverse City loves the pillowy pierogi and Cuban-style sandwiches from Lost Village Pierogi: The Polished Cuban Grill, and the street-side taco flair pumped out by King Wubbz. Add them to your daily rotation and watch your cast and crew race to the food line.
Choosing food truck catering is kinder to the environment too: fewer disposable trays, less leftovers, and virtually no wasted craft-services coffee. Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime at your Traverse City studio so you can focus on that perfect shot of the sun setting over Grand Traverse Bay—it’s one less thing for you to worry about.
Fuel Your Shoot and Traverse City’s Small-Business Scene
Booking food truck catering for your Traverse City studio isn’t just smart for the call sheet—it’s a direct investment in the community you’re capturing on film. Most of the trucks we deploy are run by local families who also sell at the Sara Hardy Farmers Market and park along Front Street during the National Cherry Festival. Every taco or whitefish slider your crew orders keeps dollars circulating right here in Northern Michigan, supporting fishermen, produce growers, and cherry orchards from Elk Rapids to Leelanau.
Food trucks are also a win for eco-friendly film productions. Because they cook to order in compact, energy-efficient kitchens, they burn less propane and create far less single-use waste than traditional buffet catering—no more half-empty hotel pans heading for the dumpster behind the soundstage. Pair that sustainability with our digital ordering system (goodbye paper tickets) and you’ve got the greenest “studio catering in Traverse City” available.
So the next time your production assistant Googles “low-budget film catering near me,” send them our way. Best Food Trucks will roll up, dish out the city’s best flavors, and leave the Boardman River shoreline—and your budget—looking picture-perfect.

The chicken tacos were great, with awesome flavor, along with the fries that were nice and fresh with the added extra seasoning! I enjoyed my lunch today for sure! 🤗

The sauce was just the right amount of sweet, the combination of the crispy crust and warm melted cheese was perfect and the pepperoni added a nice spice to round it out. 😋yum

I ordered the Lemonade cupcake. I loved the balance between the sweet of the icing and the sour of the lemon! It was so delicious!!!

Amazing crust, great cheese and pepperoni. Sauce tasted great too, but I would like a bit more on the pizza

Pizza was perfectly cooked with high quality ingredients and you could tell they make their own crust and sauce, would definitely order from them again. Pickup went smoothly and order was ready at the requested time.

Very tasty! The seasoning on the fries has a nice kick to it. Burger was way bigger than I expected and cooked just the way I like it.

Food was ready on time, we are at the workplace and are busy so this is important to us and they were on-point. Online system worked great. Staff were friendly. Food was a little pricy, but not unexpected given it was on-site service. Quality if good was good. Original take on pizza. Was nice to get fresh cooked food at work.

They used a lot of pepper in the rice today. More so than normal. I have been eating their food since they were in the store in Nolensville.
