Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Charlotte Studio Crew
Film and TV production in the Queen City moves fast—whether you’re shooting at Silver Hammer Studios in the North End, a soundstage in NoDa, or on location uptown near the Spectrum Center. Best Food Trucks keeps your Charlotte studio catering running just as smoothly. We’ve spent years feeding hungry crews, so we know how to build rotating daily menus that hit call-time, wrap-time, and every break in between.
Our local team will map the best service spots on your lot, streamline online ordering and express pickup, and verify every vendor’s permits and insurance with the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. You’ll get an itemized cost analysis that stays on budget—no surprise overages. Plus, food truck catering drastically reduces food and packaging waste, helping keep our beloved Catawba River and Lake Norman cleaner.
Looking for menu variety that keeps cast and crew excited? Charlotte favorites like Word Of Mouth Catering CLT (Southern comfort classics), Nacho Average Truck (the city’s first gourmet nacho truck), Krave Food Truck (burgers, tacos, and wings), the grilled-cheese genius of Papi Queso, and coastal flavors from Ruthie’s of Charlotte roll right up to your set. We’ll rotate them throughout the week so everyone—from background extras to the director—finds something they love.
Ready to take the guesswork out of mealtime for your Charlotte studio production? Reach out to Best Food Trucks and discover why we’re the top choice for food truck catering for studios in Charlotte.
Fuel Charlotte Studios & Lift Local Businesses
Choosing food truck catering for a studio in Charlotte doesn’t just solve mealtime logistics—it funnels your budget straight back into the Queen City’s small-business economy. Most Charlotte food trucks are family-run labors of love, parked nightly in neighborhoods like Plaza Midwood, South End, NoDa, and Wesley Heights before rolling onto set at dawn. Every burger flipped or shrimp po’ boy served keeps dollars circulating with hometown entrepreneurs instead of large national vendors.
Mobile kitchens are also a greener way to feed cast and crew. Self-contained trucks pull significantly less power than full craft-service tents, and their cook-to-order model slashes the buffet overages that usually end up in the Buford landfill. Many Charlotte operators even power their rigs with biodiesel refined right here in Mecklenburg County, trimming your production’s carbon footprint in the process.
So the next time you’re on location at Silver Hammer Studios or shooting night exteriors uptown and type “low budget film catering near me” into your phone, call Best Food Trucks. We’ll line up Charlotte’s best mobile chefs, deliver hot meals on cue, and give your production a socially responsible story to tell.

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.

More than 5! They worked their butts off to get the food out. All of it was delicious! Probably the best burger meat I've ever had, melted in my mouth!

Food was great and she was very pleasant. She was by herself when I went down there but she had a great system and stayed positive during a hectic time. I loved being able to pre-order and that they texted me when my food was ready.

The food was incredibly tasty and the portions were large - enough left over for lunch tomorrow. There aren't many creole trucks out there so knocking it out of the park flavor-wise was great!

Delicious food, ready for pickup exactly when promised, and friendly, welcoming folks running the operation. I hope they return to Greyhawk Landing.

Food was delicious but I have a feeling I got someone else's order. Be careful with your online orders.

Everything was great but no one knew they could get a cookie, the sign for the type of pizza's and the cookie was not very visible. The team did a great job, food was hot and delicious (salad very good). We had some happy campers.

Have the pick-up window labeled so people who pre-order can go straight up to the window instead of being overlooked as someone who hasn't ordered yet or someone who is waiting for their food order.
