Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Ann Arbor Studio Set!
Whether you’re shooting the next indie hit on Liberty Street or cranking out commercials in Kerrytown, Best Food Trucks brings unbeatable Ann Arbor studio food truck catering right to your set. After years of feeding crews from the Film & Television Department at the University of Michigan to streaming-series productions at the old Pfizer campus, we know how to keep cast and crew fueled and on schedule.
Our local team works hand-in-hand with your production office to design rotating daily menus, recommend the ideal parking spots (yes, even in downtown’s tricky permit zones), streamline mobile ordering and rapid pickup, and verify that every vendor carries up-to-date Washtenaw County permits and insurance. You’ll get a clear cost summary, real-time budget tracking, and zero surprises—other than how delicious lunch can be.
Looking for variety that keeps even the pickiest Wolverines happy? We partner with Ann Arbor favorites like Blazin Coop's Nashville Hot Chicken for fiery tenders, the retro-cool 1923 “Bustaurant” for street-style tacos, and Bao Boys for Asian-fusion buns that wrap up faster than a scene at the Michigan Theater. Smoky cravings? Ricewood BBQ plates up brisket that rivals any tailgate, while The Burger Truck serves smash burgers worthy of a Big House crowd.
Food truck catering also shrinks your environmental footprint—less food waste, fewer disposable containers, and no idling box trucks. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics so you can focus on hitting your call sheets. From pre-dawn breakfasts on State Street to late-night wraps in Depot Town, we’ve got Ann Arbor studios covered meal after meal.
Fueling Your Shoot—and Ann Arbor’s Small Businesses
Booking studio food truck catering in Ann Arbor isn’t just the fastest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s a direct investment in the local makers who keep our city creative. From independent trucks rolling out of Ypsilanti’s Depot Town to family-run rigs parked at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market on weekends, each vendor is a home-grown enterprise, not a national chain. Your catering dollars stay right here, paying for fresh Michigan produce, keeping mechanics on Jackson Road busy, and helping parents cover U-M tuition bills.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional buffet setups. Because everything is cooked to order in compact kitchens, trucks draw less power than a tent full of warming trays and they generate fewer single-use pans. Many of our partners compost prep scraps through the city’s green cart program and serve with biodegradable cutlery from Recycle Ann Arbor.
So if you’re scrolling “low-budget film catering near me” after a late night in post at Avalon Housing Studios, give Best Food Trucks a call. We’ll connect you with the area’s most delicious—and socially responsible—mobile kitchens, proving that great eats and good deeds can share the same menu on your Ann Arbor set.

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

Would have been a 5 star but they got there exactly at the time the luncheon was scheduled to start - making me a little nervous! Aside from that the food and service were both excellent!

Jiniah and her team were amazing - very friendly and efficient with our guests. Food was great and there was a wide variety - the only reason I’m not giving them 5 stars is that it is advertised as serving seasoned waffle fries and they were just plain fries - still tasty but not what we expected.

The bottom bun where the meat was put on top of was completely mush. Had to just eat it with a fork but it was very tasty!

Food was pretty good. People seemed to like the BBQ nachos. The wait time was a little long.

Michael was fantastic! He was on time, his set up was easy and clean, and he was hilarious (all our guests loved him!). The food was great and there were plenty of choices, so something for everyone's taste (I had guests who were both gluten and dairy free, so this was great!). The portion sizes were also very generous, no one left hungry! Highly recommend!

Portions were back to normal and the food was so good this time around. Been a while since I last got food at the truck but I try to get them every time I come around. Last time disappointed me a tiny bit but this time they blew it out the park. Thank you so much, look forward to the truck coming back on the 14th!
