Hot, Customizable Food-Truck Meals for Every Charlottesville Studio Set
Shooting a commercial on the Downtown Mall, a series on the UVA Grounds, or a feature film with Monticello and the Blue Ridge Mountains as your backdrop? Best Food Trucks specializes in food truck catering for studios in Charlottesville, VA, delivering fresh, locally loved meals to keep cast and crew energized. Our team has years of experience coordinating studio catering in Charlottesville, so your meal breaks run on time and on budget—no matter if you’re filming at IX Art Park or on the banks of the Rivanna River.
We’ll collaborate with your production staff to craft rotating daily menus, select optimal serving locations, and streamline mobile ordering and pickup. From permitting to insurance, every vendor is thoroughly vetted, and you receive a detailed cost analysis that fits your budget. Choosing food truck catering for film crews also helps the environment, cutting down on food and packaging waste compared to traditional buffet service.
Charlottesville’s food truck scene is stacked with crowd-pleasing options. Craving Mediterranean? Try a hearty shawarma bowl from Ricebowls Express. Want classic slices fired right on set? Blue Ridge Pizza Co rolls up with a wood-fired oven on wheels. Need an afternoon cool-down after a hot day under the lights? Royal Creamery & Icery scoops small-batch ice cream that rivals any parlor on West Main. For comfort-food favorites, book Fantabulous Chef Service LLC or the beloved Curbside Creations—both guarantee mac-and-cheese and slider bliss that crews rave about.
Let Best Food Trucks handle every detail of your Charlottesville studio food truck catering. We’ll keep the cameras rolling—and the bellies happy—so you can focus on getting the perfect shot.
Fueling Charlottesville’s Creative Economy
Booking a truck through Best Food Trucks keeps your catering budget circulating right here in Charlottesville. Each burger, bánh mì, or biscuit is cooked by an independent owner—often UVA alums or lifelong C-villians—who are hustling just as hard as your lighting crew. From the husband-and-wife duo at Farmacy Food Truck who source produce from Bellair Farm to the brothers behind Chimm Street who perfected their recipes on the Corner, our lineup is 100% small business.
Food trucks are also a natural fit for eco-minded productions. Meals are cooked to order in self-contained kitchens, slashing energy use and eliminating mountains of chafing-pan waste. Many of our vendors compost through the McIntire Recycling Center and use plant-based packaging supplied by downtown’s GreenBlue, helping your shoot leave a lighter footprint on the Blue Ridge landscape.
So when the call sheet says “Lunch on the Downtown Mall” and you’re searching for “low-budget film catering near me,” choose Best Food Trucks. You’ll get fresh, crowd-pleasing meals and support socially responsible, locally owned businesses—all while locking in the smoothest Charlottesville studio food truck catering experience on set.

Delicious!!! Rangoon‘s were a bit on the cool side, but still delicious. Everything else was hot and steamy. Can’t wait till you come back to Raintree again.

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.

The catfish was very fresh and delicious--melts in your mouth and no fishy taste! The crispy Brussel sprouts were awesome too!
