Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Detroit Studio Set

Whether you’re filming a car-chase on Woodward Avenue or a music video in an Eastern Market warehouse, your crew deserves great food—fast. Best Food Trucks is Detroit’s go-to partner for studio food truck catering, bringing Motor City flavor to every soundstage, back-lot, and on-location shoot.

We’ve spent years feeding film and TV crews from Corktown to the Riverfront, so we know how to keep meals on schedule and on budget. Our Detroit studio catering team will:

  • Build rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew excited.
  • Scout the best truck parking spots, even in tight Midtown alleys.
  • Streamline online ordering and contact-free pickup.
  • Vet every vendor for permits, insurance, and union requirements.
  • Provide clear cost summaries that make the line producer smile.

Want bold Detroit flavors? Book local favorites like fragrant Indian bowls from Paradise Street Eats, smoky sandwiches from the iconic Detroit 75 Kitchen, or jollof rice and suya from Waka Street Food. Craving tacos on Taco Tuesday—or any day? We’ll roll up with Da Bomb Taco or the family-run Tacos Hernandez Food Truck so the crew can fuel up between takes.

Food truck catering for studios in Detroit also means less waste—no disposable chafing trays or half-eaten boxed lunches cluttering the set. It’s fresher, greener, and a lot more Detroit.

Let Best Food Trucks handle the meal breaks while you capture the magic. From sunrise call times at Highland Park Studios to late-night wrap parties in Greektown, we’ll keep the cameras—and the appetites—rolling.

Fueling Detroit’s Creative Economy—One Food Truck at a Time

Choosing food truck catering for your Detroit studio set isn’t just convenient—it’s a direct investment in the city’s small-business scene. Most of the trucks that pull up outside your soundstage are run by solo entrepreneurs or multi-generation family operations based right here in the 313. Every gyro served from a bright red window on Jefferson Avenue and every vegan shawarma wrapped in Eastern Market goes right back into our local economy, keeping Detroit dollars in Detroit neighborhoods.

Need another reason to swap out the steam tables? Food trucks fit perfectly with the eco-minded spirit of modern productions. Because they cook to order, trucks use less energy than traditional off-site kitchens and produce far fewer disposable trays and plastic clamshells—meaning less trash for your grip crew to haul away. That’s good for the Rouge River, Belle Isle, and every other spot where you might be rolling film tomorrow.

So the next time you’re Googling “low-budget film catering in Detroit” or “studio food truck catering near me,” remember that Best Food Trucks can keep your cast and crew satisfied while supporting the Motor City’s small businesses and the environment. Ready to roll? We’ll bring the kitchen curbside—just call action.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.

The texture of the dough was amazing! It was crunchy yet still light and pillowy. The char was perfect too.
