Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Hartford Studio Set
When the cameras start rolling in Connecticut’s capital, you don’t have time to worry about lunch. Best Food Trucks has spent years perfecting food truck catering for studio productions in Hartford, from indie shoots in the historic Colt Gateway to network shows taping along Asylum Avenue. We know the rhythm of a film crew’s day and how crucial a well-timed, well-balanced meal break can be.
Our local team will work hand-in-hand with your production office to create rotating daily menus, pinpoint the best parking spot on your lot or street permit, and streamline online ordering so grips, gaffers, and talent grab their meals in minutes. We handle all vendor permits, COIs, and city regulations, then deliver a clear cost analysis that keeps your budget on track.
From loaded baked potatoes at Craving Potato Factory to championship-level wings at Wing It On Wheels, we showcase Hartford’s most popular trucks. Need island vibes for a night shoot? Lucan's Grill brings authentic Jamaican plates. Sweet wrap party? The famous cupcakes from NoRA Cupcake Company always steal the scene, and El Encanto Taino serves comfort food that keeps the crew energized through overtime.
Choosing food truck catering isn’t just convenient—it’s eco-friendly. Individual trucks cook to order, dramatically reducing food and packaging waste compared to traditional buffet service. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime for your Hartford studio production, so you can stay focused on getting that perfect take.
Fueling Hartford’s Small Business Scene
Every time you book food truck catering for your Hartford studio set, you’re keeping the cameras rolling and the Capital City’s economy humming. Most of the trucks we curate—like the Parkville-based taco rig that grills with family-grown peppers or the sweet crêpe trailer you’ve seen at the Old State House farmers market—are owned by solo entrepreneurs and multigenerational Hartford families. Your lunch order helps them pay staff, rent commercial kitchens on Bartholomew Avenue, and keep their distinctive flavors on our streets.
Choosing a truck over a traditional buffet is kinder to the planet, too. Compact kitchens mean lower energy use, and cooking to order slashes food and packaging waste—exactly the kind of green initiative the Riverfront Recapture crew would applaud. So the next time your production coordinator Googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food trucks Hartford,” send them our way. You’ll get hot, crowd-pleasing meals while supporting home-grown businesses and a cleaner Connecticut.

excellent food!!! I did like being able to order online and then just go pick it up. The food had a great presentation to it. I didn't want corn so they left it out. I posted pictures of it on Facebook and everybody said it looks really good. It was super delicious!!

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

How fresh my sandwich still was even though I was late. Great flavor, and the lady who helped me with sauces was great. She had lovely service, and spoke to me by name.
