Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Chicago Studio Crew
Best Food Trucks takes the guesswork out of studio food truck catering in Chicago. Drawing on our experience with major studios and film crews, we help plan meal breaks that run smoothly and offer variety for different tastes. We work with you to design rotating daily menus, identify suitable service locations, streamline ordering and pickup, and vet vendors for proper permits and insurance. You'll also receive a detailed cost summary and analysis to help keep catering within your budget.
Explore Chicago trucks such as La Cocinita Chicago for Venezuelan-inspired Latin American street food, Soul & Smoke for barbecue and soul food, and The Fat Shallot for gourmet sandwiches. For more menu variety, consider the Argentinian-style baked empanadas from 5411 Empanadas or Sicilian street food from La Comodita. We'll help you coordinate a catering plan around your production's needs, so mealtime is one less thing to manage.
Supporting Chicago's Small Businesses
Choosing food truck catering for your Chicago studio is also a way to support local entrepreneurs and family-owned small businesses. While feeding your cast and crew, you're helping keep spending in the local economy.
Food trucks can also be an eco-friendly catering option, using less energy than traditional catering setups and helping reduce food and packaging waste.

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

We received a lot of compliments from our guests on the delicious tacos. The portions were very generous. Coordinating ahead of time was easy. The delivery was on-time and everything was well-organized. I recommend using the Tacomotora condiments directly. We offered our own as well and it was too much. I would use this Tacomotora again.

Excellent tacos, rice and beans, and street corn! My guests raved about the food! I would have La Patrona back in a heartbeat! Watch out for the salsa - they are both spicy!
