Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Albany Studio

Whether you’re shooting a commercial near the Empire State Plaza or filming an indie in the Warehouse District, Best Food Trucks brings the best food truck catering for studios in Albany straight to your set. We understand that Capital Region crews work long hours—and that they expect fresh, flavorful meals the moment the director yells “break.”

Our team will coordinate rotating daily menus, determine the most convenient service locations (from the banks of the Hudson River to a soundstage in Colonie), streamline mobile ordering and pickup, verify every vendor’s permits and insurance, and deliver a clear cost analysis that keeps your production on budget. Plus, food trucks generate far less packaging waste than traditional craft services—perfect for eco-conscious shoots.

Ready to feed a hungry cast and crew? Choose from Albany favorites like the American-bistro classics at Eggy's Place, juicy charcoal chicken from Michele's Charcoal Pit Food Truck, globally inspired bowls by The Healthy Cafe Catering Co., smash-style burgers at Heisenburgers, or zesty Mexican-fusion plates from Smokey Salsa Grill. We’ll rotate them throughout the week so nobody gets menu fatigue.

Let Best Food Trucks handle every detail of your Albany studio catering. You focus on the shot list; we’ll keep the crew fed, happy, and ready for the next take.

Supporting Albany’s Small Businesses

Booking food truck catering for your studio set in Albany does more than satisfy hungry cast and crew members—it funnels your production dollars straight back into the Capital Region. Each truck we dispatch is run by an independent chef or family business that cut its teeth serving crowds at Alive at Five, Tulip Fest, or Sunday strolls on Lark Street. When you choose our vendors, you’re helping a neighbor cover rent on a commissary kitchen in Menands, keep a food-prep job in Arbor Hill, and grow the local economy one taco—or smash burger—at a time.

Food trucks also deliver a lighter footprint than traditional craft services. With self-contained kitchens, they draw less power on set, and our partners serve everything in compostable or recyclable packaging that won’t wind up drifting down the Hudson. Fewer generators, fewer trash bags, same bold Albany flavor.

So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me” or “Albany studio craft services,” give Best Food Trucks a call. We’ll roll up with licensed, fully insured, and eco-friendly rigs that keep your crew fueled—and keep Albany’s small-business spirit thriving.

Delicious!!! Rangoon‘s were a bit on the cool side, but still delicious. Everything else was hot and steamy. Can’t wait till you come back to Raintree again.

More than 5! They worked their butts off to get the food out. All of it was delicious! Probably the best burger meat I've ever had, melted in my mouth!

Food was great and she was very pleasant. She was by herself when I went down there but she had a great system and stayed positive during a hectic time. I loved being able to pre-order and that they texted me when my food was ready.

The food was incredibly tasty and the portions were large - enough left over for lunch tomorrow. There aren't many creole trucks out there so knocking it out of the park flavor-wise was great!

Delicious food, ready for pickup exactly when promised, and friendly, welcoming folks running the operation. I hope they return to Greyhawk Landing.

Food was delicious but I have a feeling I got someone else's order. Be careful with your online orders.

Everything was great but no one knew they could get a cookie, the sign for the type of pizza's and the cookie was not very visible. The team did a great job, food was hot and delicious (salad very good). We had some happy campers.

The catfish was very fresh and delicious--melts in your mouth and no fishy taste! The crispy Brussel sprouts were awesome too!

Have the pick-up window labeled so people who pre-order can go straight up to the window instead of being overlooked as someone who hasn't ordered yet or someone who is waiting for their food order.
