Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Hartford Studio Crew
From the sound stages at Riverfront Recapture to the indie sets in Parkville, Hartford productions run on tight schedules—and great food. Best Food Trucks delivers the most reliable studio food truck catering in Hartford, keeping cast and crew fueled with fresh, local flavors while you stay on budget and on time.
We partner with home-grown favorites like Craving Potato Factory, where loaded baked potatoes come piled high with lump crab, steak, tofu and more. Craving a heat break between takes? Wing It On Wheels is Hartford’s go-to for award-winning Buffalo wings and crispy tenders. Need something that tastes like a Caribbean getaway without leaving Asylum Hill? Lucan's Grill brings jerk chicken and authentic Jamaican plates straight to set. And when the director calls “wrap,” reward the team with gourmet cupcakes from NoRA Cupcake Company or island-inspired comfort bites from El Encanto Taino.
Our studio catering specialists design rotating daily menus, map the optimal serving locations on your lot, and streamline ordering with easy mobile pre-orders or walk-up QR codes—no more long craft-service lines eating into call times. Every vendor is fully vetted for Hartford and Connecticut health permits and insurance, and you’ll receive a clear cost analysis so there are never surprises in post.
Food truck catering also slashes food and packaging waste compared to traditional buffets, keeping the Capital City a little greener. Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime logistics while you focus on getting the perfect shot—because on a Hartford set, the only drama should be in the script.
Fueling Hartford’s Economy, One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a studio food truck in Hartford isn’t just the smartest way to keep your cast and crew happy—it’s a direct investment in the Capital City’s small-business community. Most of the trucks we roll onto your lot are run by Parkville artisans, North End families, or downtown dreamers who perfected their recipes at spots like Pratt Street’s pop-ups and the historic Coltsville warehouses. Every taco, wing, or cupcake you order puts real dollars back into Hartford neighborhoods and helps these entrepreneurs create local jobs.
Choosing food truck catering for your Hartford studio shoot is also an eco-friendly win. Our vendors cook to order in energy-efficient kitchens on wheels and rely on compostable service ware, cutting down the massive food and packaging waste that traditional buffet lines leave behind. We even position trucks to reduce idling and coordinate batch ordering through QR codes, shrinking the carbon footprint on your Elm City set.
So the next time your production manager Googles “low-budget film catering near me” anywhere in Greater Hartford, skip the soggy trays and call Best Food Trucks. You’ll serve crave-worthy meals, support hometown businesses, and keep Connecticut just a little greener—all before the director yells, “Action!”

I was told that the $6 garlic fries I paid extra for were on the one box. I find it hard to believe that was extra fries. Seems like it would be an extra box(extra side)

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.
