Fueling Charlotte’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time

Bringing a food truck onto your Charlotte studio lot does more than keep cast and crew smiling—it keeps money flowing through the Queen City. Every truck we send is owned by a Charlotte-area family or solo entrepreneur, from a pastry wizard based in Dilworth to a barbecue pitmaster out of Huntersville. When you book with Best Food Trucks, you’re investing in local jobs, commissary kitchens on Wilkinson Boulevard, and the unique food culture that makes filming in Charlotte feel like home.

Food trucks also check the “green production” box. These self-contained kitchens use a fraction of the power required by traditional buffet lines, arrive stocked with compostable serviceware, and roll away leaving NoDa’s murals—and your set—spotless. Fewer generators, less trash, smaller carbon footprint: that’s a wrap any location manager can celebrate.

So when the A.D. calls, “Lunch in 30!” and you’re frantically searching low-budget film catering in Charlotte, hit up Best Food Trucks. We’ll match you with a socially responsible, locally owned truck that keeps your budget tight and your crew raving long after the final take.

Great time overall! Truck was on time, service was top tier & cooks were so nice, working very hard in the heat. Thank you!!

The food was VERY good. 1 of their fryers broke so it took almost 3 hours to get everyone thru the line which didn't make anyone happy. The quality of the food was great and quantity of food also but time was a turn off for most. They also did not show up to the event early enough to set up so they didn't start serving until about 20-25 mins after the set-up start time. Would hire again for smaller event.

The brisket grilled cheese was seriously the best BBQ sandwich I've ever had. It was PERFECT. The meat was Smokey and the BBQ sauce was definitely homemade because it was superb & you can taste the love that was put into it. My husband tried it & instantly wanted one. We will be ordering 2 sandwiches each next time - they were THAT good. Staff was friendly and our order was made exactly at the time we selected. 10/10 will be back!

Sandwiches were absolutely phenomenal. Cuban, chicken parm, grilled cheese and brisket were all top notch! Five stars there. Fries had zero taste and were pretty bad but the main course more than made up for it.

Everything! It's the best pizza I've ever had and I mean it. I do wish they had a customization option with more add ons. But for what they had I wouldn't change a thing. 10/10

I received the wrong pizza (pepperoni) at first. Once I took the incorrect pizza back to the truck they apologized and made the NY plain with extra cheese as I had originally ordered. The staff was friendly and professional. When I was picking up the remake the AFrame metal sign blew over and struck me in the back of my lower leg just above my foot. I would suggest that food trucks tie down or weight their signs to keep this from happening in the future. Luckily it did not land on the top of my foot since I was wearing flip flops. I have some bruising and have placed some ice on it.

My two favorite parts are the family atmosphere and the high quality food. I look forward to the savory sauces in the pastas.
