Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Albany Studio Set!
When your film crew is shooting along the Hudson, wrapping scenes on Lark Street, or lighting up the soundstage at the old warehouse off Broadway, you don’t have time for catering mishaps. Best Food Trucks has been feeding Capital Region productions for years, and we know exactly how to keep your Albany studio running on schedule— and on a full stomach.
Our team works hand-in-hand with your production office to create rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew excited. We scout the perfect parking spot—whether that’s near Empire State Plaza’s reflecting pool or tucked behind the Historic State Capitol—so your food truck service never interferes with loading docks or set builds. Ordering stays painless with our online pre-order system; pickups move fast so you can get back to rolling camera.
Every truck in our roster carries all necessary Albany and New York State permits and insurance. You’ll receive a clear cost breakdown before the first call sheet drops, so your UPM can balance the budget without guesswork. Plus, food truck catering means less disposable ware and dramatically less food waste—great news for a city that prides itself on sustainability.
Choose local favorites like the crave-worthy American bistro fare from Eggy's Place, smoky chicken classics from Michele's Charcoal Pit Food Truck, multicultural bowls from The Healthy Cafe Catering Co., smash burgers worthy of the name from Heisenburgers, or Mexican-fusion street eats courtesy of Smokey Salsa Grill. We’ll rotate them through the week so lunch never feels like déjà vu.
Let Best Food Trucks handle your food truck catering for studio productions in Albany, NY. From sunrise call to golden-hour wrap, we keep your crew fueled—one less thing for you to worry about while you make movie magic in the Capital City.
Supporting Albany’s Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
Every time your production crew breaks for lunch in Albany, you have a chance to pump real dollars back into the Capital Region’s economy. Booking food truck catering for your studio set keeps paychecks circulating from Pearl Street to Pine Hills because these mobile kitchens are run by solo chefs, sibling teams, and family-owned startups who live right here in the 518. Instead of wiring money to a national chain, you’re helping a Latham baker source produce at the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market and a South End pit-master pay tuition at UAlbany.
Food trucks also check the sustainability box your producers keep flagging in their call sheets. Compared with a brick-and-mortar commissary, a truck burns less energy, generates minimal food waste, and uses compostable service ware that aligns with Albany County’s recycling guidelines. The result? A greener set and a lighter footprint along the Hudson.
So the next time your production coordinator types “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering Albany” into a search bar, skip the generic options and call Best Food Trucks. You’ll get hot, memorable meals—and the good karma that comes from supporting local small businesses.

All food was great. Boom boom shrimp was especially good. Cook was understaffed but did a remarkable job under pressure. Kudos.

Friendly, family like service and delicious pasta! I also appreciate the dressing for the Caesar salad being put on the side, so salad does not get soggy.

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

It was amazing! Loved the sauce and the chicken and how the chicken was prepared. Wish I had a few more veggies but otherwise loved it. Thanks

Papa Arepas was a big hit at my office. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, food ordering on their digital kiosk was easy and convenient, and the food was superb! We will definitely be having them back.

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.
