Hot, Customizable Meals Ready When You Are — Now Filming in Charlotte!
If your production is rolling cameras in the Queen City, Best Food Trucks is the quickest way to lock-in top-tier food truck catering for studios in Charlotte. From indie shorts in NoDa to big-budget series shooting in South End, our local team has years of experience feeding crews at Carowinds Studios, Silver Hammer, and dozens of pop-up sound stages across Mecklenburg County.
We work hand in hand with your production office to build rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew energized. Start a Monday dawn shoot with homestyle favorites from Word Of Mouth Catering CLT, load Tuesday with gourmet nachos from Charlotte’s first nacho truck, Nacho Average Truck, and power through Wednesday with burger sliders, wings, and flavored fries from Krave Food Truck. Need something different for Thursday night scenes? Treat the team to Japanese skewers at Tiger Yakitori. Wrap the week (and maybe the season) with wood-fired pies courtesy of Wheelz Pizza.
Best Food Trucks handles everything behind the scenes: identifying the perfect parking spot on your lot, staggering pickup times to avoid background noise and lines, confirming every vendor’s Mecklenburg County health permit and multimillion-dollar liability insurance, and delivering a transparent cost analysis that stays on budget. Plus, made-to-order truck service dramatically reduces buffet waste, helping your production stay green while you shoot that eco-friendly storyline.
From sunrise call times in Plaza Midwood to late-night reshoots near Lake Norman, rely on Best Food Trucks for reliable, on-time studio catering in Charlotte. Let us feed the crew so you can focus on getting the perfect take.
Fueling Charlotte’s Small Businesses, One Set at a Time
Booking a food truck for your shoot isn’t just the smartest play for fast, flavorful studio catering in Charlotte — it’s a direct investment in the Queen City’s independent food scene. Every truck we dispatch is owned by a Charlotte-area family or solo chef hustling from neighborhoods like Camp North End, Dilworth, and Wesley Heights to bring scratch-made menus to your cast and crew.
Instead of writing checks to a national conglomerate, your catering dollars stay local, circulating through our farmers markets, breweries, and supply vendors. That means every burrito, bao, or pulled-pork slider you order helps a Charlotte small business hire staff, pay rent, and keep our culinary culture vibrant.
Food trucks are also a greener choice for film set catering in Charlotte. With onboard kitchens that sip electricity and a made-to-order service style that slashes buffet waste, mobile kitchens leave a lighter footprint on your backlot and on the planet.
So the next time you Google “low-budget film catering near me,” skip the generic options and let Best Food Trucks roll up with a Charlotte-born concept that feeds your crew and the local economy all at once. Click here to reserve your Charlotte studio food truck now.

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.

Fresher ingredients. The tomatoes was kinda not fresh - like the skin was separating from the flesh. Maybe more veggies, as well. Overall it was good.

Mr. Gourmet Sausage was AWESOME! They arrived with plenty of time to set-up, kept me up to date on the number of guests served, and were super courteous to our guests. Best Food Trucks made the booking very easy and were so pleasant to work with.
