Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Harrisburg Studio Set!
Lights, camera, lunch break! Best Food Trucks has been fueling film and TV crews along the Susquehanna for years, from fast-paced shoots at Midtown Cinema to commercial spots on historic Front Street. If you need food truck catering for a studio in Harrisburg, PA, we’re the local experts. We’ll build rotating daily menus that keep cast and crew excited, suggest the best on-lot serving locations, streamline online ordering and pickup, and make sure every vendor carries the proper City of Harrisburg permits and insurance. You’ll even get a detailed cost analysis that keeps your production on budget.
Food truck catering isn’t just convenient—it’s eco-friendly. By cooking to order, trucks create far less food and packaging waste than traditional buffet service. Whether you’re filming a night scene on City Island or an early-morning spot near the Capitol dome, our mobile kitchens roll in, serve hot customizable meals, and roll out without a trace.
And because we’re Harrisburg locals, we bring Central PA’s favorite flavors right to your set:
- Pretzelspotcafe – famous for stuffed pretzel logs loaded with grilled chicken, bacon, cheese, and that touch of ranch Harrisburg fans rave about.
- Mel's Rock N' BBQ – slow-smoked American comfort classics that keep the crew energized through overtime.
- Sinkers & Suds – artisan coffee and fresh doughnuts perfect for sunrise call times on a chilly riverfront morning.
- Alsies Harrisburg – local favorites served with the friendly Central PA hospitality your talent will remember.
- Grand Cru Hospitality – elevated comfort food that turns any craft-services table into a five-star experience.

Fueling Your Shoot — and Harrisburg’s Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your studio catering in Harrisburg does more than keep your cast and crew happy; it keeps the Capital City’s economy humming. Most of the trucks we place on set are owned by Harrisburg-area families and veterans who started out serving lunch crowds at Riverfront Park or the Broad Street Market before rolling onto film lots. Every gyro, brisket sandwich, or vegan grain bowl you order helps those entrepreneurs pay employees, buy produce from Strites Orchard, and keep their commissaries right here in Dauphin County.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional craft services. Because meals are cooked to order, trucks create far less food and packaging waste—something every production can appreciate when you’re shooting along the Susquehanna or inside the soundstage at the former AMP building on Cameron Street. Lower energy use, minimal generators, and recyclable service ware mean you can check the “green production” box without breaking a sweat.
So the next time “studio food truck catering Harrisburg” or “low-budget film catering near me” pops up on your call sheet, give Best Food Trucks a shout. We’ll deliver crowd-pleasing menus, keep your accountants smiling, and make sure your catering dollars stay right here in Central PA.

Food was amazing. Chef Yarwood clearly knows what he is doing. The steak tips with mushrooms and onions as well as the Mac and cheese were truly delicious. I will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Good pizza! I love the crust and the garlic is over the top! Suggestion: allow me to add sausage and extra basil to the base white pizza without adding red sauce.😉

I found the cheese pizza to be salty and the margherita pizza needed more tomato sauce. The cauliflower crust was good as was the balsamic vinaigrette.

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!

The sandwich and salad combination is a good value: whole sandwich and large salad. It was also very tasty.

The food was delicious. For the price it would have been nice to have an egg roll in the plate. But it was really good.
