Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Charlotte Studio Crew
From the sound stages off Statesville Avenue to bustling sets in South End, Charlotte’s film scene moves fast—and your meal service has to keep up. Best Food Trucks has spent years perfecting on-location food truck catering for studios, guaranteeing that every lunch break is smooth, speedy, and delicious. We’ll collaborate with your production team to build rotating daily menus, select the best service spots for tight call-sheet timelines, and streamline ordering and pickup so your crew is back on set before the director yells “Action!”
Our local roster features Queen City favorites like Word Of Mouth Catering CLT (don’t miss their fried-chicken sliders), the always-buzzing Nacho Average Truck—Charlotte’s first gourmet-nacho rig—plus crave-worthy burgers from Krave Food Truck, authentic Japanese skewers at Tiger Yakitori, and wood-fired pies from Wheelz Pizza. Every vendor we book carries the proper Mecklenburg County permits and insurance, so you can focus on the shoot, not the paperwork.
Worried about budgets? Our team provides detailed cost analyses, ensuring you stay on target whether you’re filming a Bank of America commercial or the next indie hit in NoDa. Plus, food trucks slash food and packaging waste—good news for productions looking to keep their carbon footprint as light as a boom mic.
Let Best Food Trucks handle the catering logistics for your Charlotte studio. Hot, fresh, and fully customizable meals are just a call sheet away!
Fueling Charlotte’s Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a food truck for your Charlotte studio set does more than feed the crew—it funnels your catering dollars straight back into the Queen City. Nearly every truck we dispatch is a family-run micro-business based in neighborhoods like Plaza Midwood, Wesley Heights, and Belmont. When you order those shrimp po’ boys or vegan grain bowls, you’re helping a local owner pay rent, hire neighbors, and buy produce from regional farms outside Kannapolis and Monroe.
Food trucks are also a surprisingly green choice for on-location catering. Self-contained kitchens mean lower power draw than a traditional commissary tent, and our vendors serve with compostable cutlery approved by Mecklenburg County’s Solid Waste program. Fewer generators, fewer trash bags—more time to nail that golden-hour shot on the Little Sugar Creek Greenway.
So the next time your production assistant types “low-budget film catering near me in Charlotte” into Google, skip the soggy boxed lunches. Call Best Food Trucks and get hot, studio-ready meals that support home-grown businesses and the environment in one tasty take.

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.

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.
