Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Charlottesville Studio Set
Whether your cameras are rolling on the Downtown Mall, at UVA’s historic Lawn, or against the Blue Ridge backdrop out by Monticello, Best Food Trucks delivers the most dependable food truck catering for studio crews in Charlottesville. Our local team understands the unique pace of production life and keeps cast and crew fueled without delaying the call sheet.
We design rotating daily menus that fit every dietary note in the script—vegan, gluten-free, or “just-feed-me-fast.” Need breakfast burritos at dawn on Carter Mountain and late-night sliders in Belmont? No problem. We’ll scout the best service locations, streamline online ordering and pickup, and vet each vendor’s insurance and permits so your AD never has to chase paperwork.
Best of all, we spotlight favorite Charlottesville food trucks the crew will actually be excited about. Picture Mediterranean bowls from Ricebowls Express, wood-fired slices from Blue Ridge Pizza Co, small-batch ice cream from Royal Creamery & Icery, comfort-food classics via Fantabulous Chef Service LLC, and crowd-pleasing American bites from Curbside Creations. Each truck pulls up with the proper permits, a smile, and plenty of local pride.
Food truck catering for studios in Charlottesville isn’t just convenient—it’s greener. Made-to-order meals generate far less food and packaging waste than traditional buffets, helping your production stay in line with Virginia’s sustainability goals. Let Best Food Trucks handle every culinary detail so you can stay focused on the shot list. Lights, camera, lunchtime!
Fueling C-Ville’s Independent Economy
Booking food truck catering for your studio in Charlottesville does more than keep the call sheet on schedule—it keeps local dreams alive. Nearly every truck that parks on Market Street or at the IX Art Park is a family-run venture, from the couple rolling handmade empanadas in a converted school bus to the UVA grad slinging smash burgers out of a shiny Airstream. When your production hires one of these Charlottesville food trucks, your dollars stay right here in Albemarle County, circulating through farmers’ markets, music venues, and Little League sponsorships instead of disappearing to a far-off corporate caterer.
The trucks are also a lighter lift on Mother Nature. Compact kitchens mean lower energy use, and made-to-order meals slash the pan-of-leftovers waste that plagues buffet tables. Many of our partners run on biodiesel and compost their prep scraps at McIntire Recycling Center, helping your shoot check both the “local” and “sustainable” boxes on the production checklist.
So the next time the production coordinator types “studio food truck catering Charlottesville” or “low-budget film catering near me” into a browser, skip the generic ads and call Best Food Trucks. We’ll match you with a truck that feeds your crew, supports a C-Ville small business, and keeps the Blue Ridge just a little bit greener.

The pizza taste great but the picture made them look bigger than the pie was and I didn't know I would have order a few more because they were small.

Nashville bourbon cheesesteak.. delicious only suggestion to put queso sauce in a separate container so the bread won't get soggy.

. The boneless wings and fries were really good but the kids burger barely had a meat patty on it. It was almost eating just bread. I know it's a kids burger but it still costs like 9 dollars.

I made a review earlier about their sauces being a little amount, I’ve tried them since and they have made the portion of their sauces much better and the food was amazing again!

Don't run out of German potato salad so early in the evening. We placed our order before 5:00 for a 5:20 pick up and they were already out of it.
