Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Grand Rapids Studio Set!
Whether you’re filming a commercial on Monroe Center, shooting a feature near the Grand River, or streaming a series in the Westside Warehouse District, Best Food Trucks delivers the most dependable studio catering Grand Rapids has to offer. We’ve spent years fine-tuning break-time logistics for production crews, so your meal windows stay tight and your cast and crew stay happy. From mapping the best truck parking spots at River City Studios to coordinating staggered pickup times at WKTV, our local team handles it all.
We’ll design rotating daily menus that keep creative energy high, vet every vendor for state and city permits and insurance, and provide an easy, app-based preorder system that eliminates long lines. You’ll also receive a detailed cost breakdown that respects both indie-film and major-studio budgets. Plus, food truck catering is the green choice for Grand Rapids: fewer disposable pans, less food waste, and lower emissions from multiple delivery cars.
Want Michigan-made sweets? Book the MyCone Creamery dessert truck for small-batch, hand-dipped ice cream that cools the crew faster than a Lake Michigan breeze. Craving global flavors? Roll Call by Gettin' Fresh brings a multicultural menu that keeps even the pickiest gaffers guessing. Need hearty handhelds for a winter night shoot? Airborne Burritos, Grand Rapids’ veteran-owned favorite, serves gourmet burritos inspired by cuisines around the world. Looking to boost morale on a tight turnaround? Waffle Stix delivers sweet and savory waffles-on-a-stick—perfect for one-handed snacking while resetting lights. And for crafty table treats that disappear faster than a prime ArtPrize parking spot, invite Around Baking Company.
From dawn call times on Wealthy Street to golden-hour wrap parties in Heritage Hill, let Best Food Trucks handle your Grand Rapids studio catering so you can keep the cameras rolling. Hot, customizable meals ready when you are—no reshoots required.
Fueling Your Set While Fueling Grand Rapids’ Small Businesses
Booking Best Food Trucks for your Grand Rapids studio catering does more than keep the cast fed between takes—it pours money right back into our city. Nearly every truck we work with is a family-run or solo operation headquartered right here in West Michigan, from Creston to Cascade. When you roll up a food truck to your film set, you’re putting dollars into local pockets, whether that’s the chef who sources produce at Fulton Street Farmers Market or the owner who buys buns from Nantucket Baking Co. down on Wealthy.
Food truck catering is also the eco-friendly choice for Grand Rapids productions. One truck on site means fewer delivery vans clogging US-131, smaller energy footprints than a traditional commissary kitchen, and minimal single-use pans thanks to built-in kitchens on wheels. Many of our vendors even run on biodiesel made from Westside breweries’ spent grain—very “Beer City USA.”
So the next time you’re googling “low-budget film catering near me” during a late-night edit at River City Studios, remember that food truck catering keeps your shoot on schedule, your crew satisfied, and Grand Rapids’ small-business scene thriving. Hit us up and turn mealtime into a locally powered, socially responsible win.

Well, my husband and I ordered the Italian beef sandwich and it was phenomenal. The crunch on that bread was amazing. Probably the best sandwich I've ever had on Italian beef as a matter of fact, it was the best sandwich ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Truck arrived well before the event to prepare. The owners/workers were very friendly as I met them upon arrival. They provided a varied selection of entrees to satisfy everyone's tastes and provided options for those with dietary restrictions. Food was also delicious per the team; I can say the burgers and burritos were a hit.

Despite the fact that the food was fabulous, I will share with everyone I know to never patronize the Smokin' Dough food truck. The person who handed me my order was rude and yelled at me when I asked about the diet cola that I ordered that they were unable to fulfill. They do not understand customer service, and when I shared that I wouldn't be coming back, she seemed gleeful at that prospect. Smokin' Dough is not an inexpensive food truck and I had even left a 10% tip when I placed the order online. That was a huge mistake.

The last sure times I've placed a order the burrito has been busted open on one or both sides. Other than that, it's been delicious.

All of it! The egg rolls are delicious, the vegetables and rice are so good. The sauces and adding the fork were the perfect additional touch.

It was so fun having the truck at our wedding! The truck arrived on time, people were served quickly, and the person working the truck was so kind and accommodating. We loved taking photos with the truck with our photographer and we got sent with lots of leftovers at the end of the night. All our guests continue to rave about the ice cream sandwiches!
