Hot, Customizable Meals for Grand Rapids Studios—Ready When You Call “Cut!”
Whether you’re filming a commercial on Monroe Center, shooting a feature near the Blue Bridge, or producing a docuseries in the historic Heritage Hill district, Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable food truck catering for studios in Grand Rapids. Our local team understands the tight turn-around times that come with film crew catering, and we’ll make sure every cast and crew member gets a fresh, piping-hot meal without holding up production.
We’ll work hand-in-hand with your production coordinator to build rotating daily menus that keep things exciting—think gourmet burritos from the veteran-owned Airborne Burritos, globally inspired comfort food at Roll Call by Gettin' Fresh, and Michigan-made sweet treats from MyCone Creamery, Waffle Stix, or Around Baking Company. We scout the best parking spot—whether that’s outside a soundstage on Plainfield Avenue or curbside at the Pyramid Scheme—handle permits and insurance, and streamline online ordering so meals are ready the moment “cut” is called.
Grand Rapids studio catering with food trucks isn’t just convenient; it’s sustainable. Single-service trucks generate far less food and packaging waste than traditional craft services, helping keep our beloved Grand River and surrounding parks pristine. Plus, we provide an itemized cost summary and real-time budget analysis, so you can keep more of your production dollars on the screen.
From sunrise call times to late-night shoots during ArtPrize, let Best Food Trucks remove the guesswork from mealtime. Your crew can stay focused on capturing that perfect shot—while we make sure every plate (or cone, waffle stick, and burrito) exceeds expectations.
Supporting Grand Rapids’ Small Businesses, One Food Truck at a Time
Booking food truck catering for your Grand Rapids studio set isn’t just the fastest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s also a direct investment in the city’s vibrant small-business scene. The trucks we dispatch are owned by West Michigan families, veterans, and first-time entrepreneurs who source ingredients from places you know: fresh produce from the Fulton Street Farmers Market, cheese curds out of Comstock Park, and craft soda brewed right on Wealthy Street. Every burrito wrapped or waffle dipped keeps revenue circulating on this side of the Grand River instead of disappearing to an out-of-state conglomerate.
Food trucks are a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional craft services, too. Because meals are cooked to order inside energy-efficient kitchens on wheels, our partners generate far less food waste and disposable-pan trash than buffet catering. That means a smaller carbon footprint for your shoot and fewer dumpsters cluttering the set on Ottawa Avenue. So the next time you’re Googling “low-budget film crew catering in Grand Rapids,” call Best Food Trucks. You’ll get hot, memorable meals and give a high-five to the local economy—without blowing the production budget.

I wish there was another slice of tomato on my loaded grilled cheese, it was a lot of bread. The kale salad was very tasty. Thanks

The only thing we would not order again is the Barbacoa tacos. Expected them to be more finely shredded. The meat was a little tough. Everything else was great!

More accurate timeline to have the food ready. My grandkids waited 45 mins after being told it would be 10 minutes

The burger was well cooked, and the fries were actually my favorite kind of crispy with a nice seasoning

Suggest slightly less fries. I did like how they were cooked. Slightly more sauce in the sandwich; not much though. I'd definitely order again in the future.
