Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Gainesville Studio Set
Whether you’re shooting B-roll on the University of Florida campus or wrapping a night scene near Depot Park, your crew in Gainesville deserves fresh food that shows up on time and on budget. Best Food Trucks brings years of on-set catering expertise straight to the Heart of the Gator Nation, making “meal time” the easiest line item on your call sheet.
We’ll partner with your production team to craft rotating daily menus, secure the perfect serving location (from the wide lots off Newberry Road to tucked-away spots in Innovation Square), and streamline online ordering so grips, gaffers, and talent all get hot meals in minutes. Our vetted vendors carry full permits and insurance, and every event comes with a clear cost analysis that keeps your Gainesville studio accounting happy.
Food truck catering also keeps your set green. By cooking to order, our trucks slash food and packaging waste—perfect for eco-minded projects filming near Paynes Prairie or Sweetwater Wetlands.
Local Gainesville Food Trucks Your Crew Will Love
Blueline Q fires up authentic Florida barbecue—think slow-smoked brisket and pulled pork sandwiches that keep the energy high during long shoot days.
Rancho Luna Food Truck dishes out American comfort classics such as loaded mac-and-cheese and crispy chicken tenders, ideal for quick turnarounds between takes.
Tommyknockers Mobile Kitchen serves Southern comfort favorites, from shrimp and grits to fried green tomatoes, giving cast and crew a true taste of North Florida hospitality.
A spices things up with vibrant African cuisine—jollof rice, peri-peri chicken, and plantain fries that spark conversation at craft services.
Impact Island Cafe Food Truck brings Caribbean flair, offering jerk chicken bowls and tropical veggie plates that transport everyone to island time, even in the middle of downtown Gainesville.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering in Gainesville. From early-morning call times to wrap-party feasts, we’ll keep your production fueled, focused, and ready for the next shot.
Fueling Gainesville Studios & Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your Gainesville studio set does more than feed a hungry crew—it funnels real dollars back into the community. Nearly every truck we dispatch is a family-owned micro-business parked most weekends at the Haile Farmers Market, the Downtown Arts Festival, or a Gators tailgate outside Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. When your production hires one of these rigs, you’re keeping Gainesville money in Gainesville pockets—and that’s a wrap everyone can cheer for.
Our rolling kitchens are also lighter on the planet than traditional buffet lines. Because everything is cooked to order inside the truck, we slash food waste and energy use—no chafing dishes humming for hours, no mountains of disposable trays. Pair that with compostable cutlery and you’ve got an eco-friendly craft-services solution that plays just as well out at Devil’s Millhopper as it does on a soundstage in Innovation Square.
So the next time the production coordinator types “low-budget film catering near me” into Google, skip the generic listings and call Best Food Trucks. We’ll deliver fresh, fast, Gainesville food truck catering for studios that keeps your crew happy, your accountant smiling, and our local entrepreneurs thriving.

Fries were blah. I love shoestring fries but these were not great. Very plain. Not a great taste. Our burgers were very good. Chicken fingers were average. I wish we could find a place that did amazing beer battered chicken fingers.

The portion was more than expected and hot and fresh. A coworker ordered the Pepperoni pizza and it was really good as well

I really liked Max’s hot chicken. I got the gyro plate and it was great quantity. The only thing I didn’t enjoy as much was that the meat was too salty.

The nachos had great flavor but the beef and chicken could have been hotter. The meat was a little cold but overall, I would definitely get the nachos again.
