Hot, Customizable Studio Meals — Served On-Set Anywhere in Washington DC!
From sound stages in NoMa to location shoots on the National Mall, Best Food Trucks has been feeding Washington DC film crews for years. We know that when the director yells “cut,” the next most important call is “lunch!” Our team coordinates food truck catering for studios in Washington DC that keeps talent and crew happy, on time, and on budget.
We’ll build rotating daily menus that cover every craving, whether your gaffer wants a half-smoke with mumbo sauce or your PA is looking for vegan dumplings. Our local roster includes:
- District Small Bites for elevated American bistro comfort food.
- Two Smooth Dudes and their legendary loaded tater tots & pineapple smoothies.
- Roaming Coyote bringing Tex-Mex tacos straight from Fairfax City’s fan-favorite Coyote Grille.
- Himalayan Soul Foods serving authentic Nepali momos that warm up any chilly night shoot.
- New Gourmet Delight with fast-fire Asian fusion bowls perfect for grab-and-go crews.
Best Food Trucks handles every detail: scouting optimal parking on closed streets, securing DC Health and DDOT permits, setting up mobile ordering to eliminate lines, and providing real-time cost breakdowns so your production accountant stays happy. You’ll also reduce food and packaging waste versus traditional craft-services buffets — great news for any set looking to earn those sustainable production credits.
Whether you’re filming a political drama on Capitol Hill or a superhero chase down K Street, let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering in Washington DC. Your only task will be deciding which truck’s specialties to feature in tomorrow’s call sheet.
Fueling Your Set & DC Small Businesses
Booking food truck catering for studios in Washington DC does more than satisfy cast and crew—it funnels dollars straight back into the District’s small-business scene. Most DMV food trucks are owned by solo chefs, veterans, and family teams who prep in Ward-5 commissaries and buy produce from Eastern Market before heading to your shoot. Every lunch order keeps those hyper-local entrepreneurs thriving.
Rolling kitchens are also a smart, eco-forward alternative to traditional buffet service. Generators sip far less power than a full craft-services tent, and trucks plate meals to order, cutting food waste that would otherwise pile up faster than take after take. Fewer chafing dishes, less single-use plastic, and no idling box trucks mean a greener footprint for your production—great news if you’re chasing those sustainable film credits the city now recognizes.
So next time “crafty” shows up in the call sheet or you’re googling “low-budget film catering near me,” keep it local, eco-friendly, and delicious. Hit up Best Food Trucks and give your crew a taste of DC while you power the community that makes this city hum.
