Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Charleston Studio Set!
Whether your cameras are rolling on the cobblestone streets of downtown, out by the Ravenel bridge, or inside a soundstage in North Charleston, Best Food Trucks delivers fast, reliable food truck catering for studio productions all across Charleston. We know that film crews run on tight schedules—our on-set meal service keeps talent and crew fueled without ever slowing down the shoot.
From sunrise call times to late-night wrap parties, we design rotating daily menus that reflect Lowcountry tastes while accommodating every diet. Imagine Mediterranean wraps from Wally Gyros LLC, plant-based power bowls from Bangin' Vegan Eats, Southern comfort classics courtesy of Fed Up Truck LLC, authentic shawarma from Zimo's, and crispy Filipino lumpia from Lola's Lumpia Food Truck—all without leaving the lot.
Our Charleston studio catering team handles everything: selecting the best parking locations for quick service, streamlining mobile ordering and pickup, verifying every truck’s permits and insurance, and delivering clear cost analyses that respect your production budget. Food truck catering also reduces food and packaging waste, helping keep the Holy City green.
When you let Best Food Trucks manage mealtime for your Charleston studio, you get worry-free, locally inspired cuisine that keeps the crew happy and the schedule on track. Action!
Fueling Charleston’s Creative Economy—One Local Truck at a Time
Booking food truck catering for your studio set isn’t just the smartest way to keep cast and crew satisfied—it’s a direct investment in Charleston’s small-business community. Each truck we dispatch is owned by a local family or solo entrepreneur who’s perfected a menu right here in the Lowcountry, from West Ashley to Mount Pleasant. That means every shrimp po’ boy, barbecue slider, or vegan collard-green wrap you serve pours money back into the Holy City’s neighborhoods instead of a national conglomerate.
Food trucks also check the sustainability box that many Charleston productions require. Mobile kitchens sip less power than a conventional on-site buffet line and plate meals in compostable or recyclable serviceware, cutting down on landfill waste and generator fuel. We even coordinate with Johns Island farms and area seafood docks whenever possible to keep your carbon footprint—and your food miles—low.
So the next time you’re Googling “low-budget film catering near me” during a late-night edit on King Street, give Best Food Trucks a call. You’ll lock in fast, affordable food truck catering for your Charleston studio and give a meaningful boost to the city’s thriving small-business scene. That’s a wrap everyone can feel good about.

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

: Not the style of teriyaki I anticipated. But overall the flavor was OK. Veggies and fried rice were quite good and the portion size was excellent.

I have visited this truck twice now, each time they didn't have an ingredient i wanted, but they've always suggested something in its place, both times I have been very pleased with the results, their pizza is TOP NOTCH, very delicious and satisfying

the lamb meat was excellent. I would have liked a little more vegetables, but overall it was excellent. I would eat there again and would try other options.

We hired Dave's S&T for a corporate employee appreciation event, and it was a smashing success from start to finish. Great communication in advance, very reasonable fixed price menu, impressive streamlined efficiency that prevented a line/wait for food, great customer service with our employees, tons of options on the menu, and fresh, flavorful food that *almost* everyone went absolutely crazy about (I mean, you can't please everyone. But it was as close to a resounding consensus as we've ever had). We'll book them again!

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!
