Hot, Customizable Meals for Detroit Studios—Delivered Right on Cue!
From the soundstages of Highland Park to on-location shoots along the Detroit Riverwalk, Best Food Trucks has been the go-to partner for Detroit studio food truck catering. We know the tight call sheets, the early call times, and the “one more take” hunger that hits every crew member. Our team coordinates rotating, locally loved menus, finds the most convenient setup spot (whether that’s outside a warehouse in Corktown or beside a green screen in Midtown), streamlines online ordering and pickup, vets every truck for permits and insurance, and provides a transparent cost breakdown that keeps your production accountant smiling.
Need variety to satisfy cast and crew with different tastes? Book bold Indian flavors from Paradise Street Eats, street-style tacos from Da Bomb Taco or Tacos Hernandez Food Truck, legendary sandwiches from Detroit 75 Kitchen, and vibrant West African dishes courtesy of Waka Street Food. Rotating these trucks throughout the shoot keeps morale high and menus fresh—even on those marathon production days.
Food truck catering also supports Detroit’s green initiatives—less food waste, minimal packaging, and reduced carbon footprints compared with traditional buffet setups. Let Best Food Trucks handle your Detroit film crew catering so you can focus on getting the perfect shot. With us on set, mealtime is one less thing for you to worry about.
Fueling the Motor City’s Small Businesses—One Set at a Time
Every time you roll in a Best Food Trucks vendor, you’re doing a lot more than feeding hungry cast and crew—you’re keeping Detroit’s engine running. Most of the trucks we work with are family-owned outfits based in neighborhoods like Mexicantown, the Cass Corridor, and Jefferson-Chalmers. Your catering dollars go straight back into the 313, helping owners pay staff, source from Eastern Market farmers, and keep their rigs road-ready for the next gig.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-minded choice for Detroit studio food truck catering. They draw less power than a traditional buffet line, arrive with built-in kitchens that cut down on rental equipment, and serve meals in compostable or recyclable packaging—perfect for productions trying to hit their green targets at Michigan Studios or any downtown loft space.
Looking for “low-budget film catering near me” that’s both socially responsible and crowd-pleasing? Call Best Food Trucks. We’ll park curbside, keep the workflow seamless, and prove that supporting small businesses in the Motor City tastes every bit as good as it feels.

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.

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.
