Hot, Customizable Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Set!
When the cameras are rolling in the Crescent City, you don’t have time to worry about lunch. Best Food Trucks has spent years feeding crews from the French Quarter all the way up Chef Menteur Highway, so we know exactly how to keep a production running on schedule. Our team will build rotating daily menus that highlight NOLA flavor, map out the smoothest service spots on-lot or on-location, streamline mobile ordering and pickup, verify every vendor’s permits and insurance, and hand you a clear cost breakdown that fits your budget. Less stress, less food waste, and fewer single-use containers—food truck catering is as green as the live oaks in City Park.
Want real local taste? Tap into New Orleans’ own rolling kitchens. Craving classic comfort? Order up Creole Tomateaux or Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC for hearty plates that keep the gaffers grinning. Need a smoky twist? NeauxLA RolLA parks a full-blown barbecue bus right by your grip truck. Looking for a little lagniappe of Cajun spice? Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux or the crowd-favorite Diva Dawg Food Truck will have the whole set saying “laissez les bons temps rouler” between takes.
From sunrise call times in Algiers to night shoots on St. Charles Avenue, Best Food Trucks keeps your cast and crew fueled with the flavors that make New Orleans famous. Book your studio catering today and taste why locals and filmmakers alike swear by our service.
Fueling Your Shoot—and NOLA’s Small Businesses
Booking New Orleans food truck catering for a studio set doesn’t just fill bellies; it puts real money back into the neighborhoods that inspire your scenes. Most Crescent City food trucks are run by second-line chefs, moms, pops, and lifelong friends from parishes like Jefferson, St. Bernard, and Plaquemines. Every plate of jambalaya or shrimp po’-boy keeps their doors—and our city’s unique culinary culture—wide open.
Unlike big-box caterers that haul in supplies from out of state, these mobile kitchens shop farmers markets on Oretha Castle Haley, seafood docks in Westwego, and spice shops on Decatur Street. Your cast and crew taste authentic, locally sourced flavor, and our independent vendors get the steady work that lets them roll on through the slow season. That’s a win-win the Saints would cheer for.
Food trucks are also the greenest way to feed a film set in New Orleans. With citywide Styrofoam bans and our love for reusable serving ware, trucks burn less energy than a full commissary tent and generate far less trash than boxed lunches. Many of our partner operators run on biodiesel or solar assist, so your production’s carbon footprint stays lighter than a beignet.
So when your location manager types “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering New Orleans,” give Best Food Trucks a shout. We’ll line up licensed, insured local vendors who make your mealtimes memorable, sustainable, and unmistakably NOLA. Roll cameras, roll lunch, and laissez les bons temps rouler!

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.

Customer service, the food, the atmosphere. They stayed during a storm, on top of all that did I say the food was great? Because it's soo good!

Food was good. Asked for spicy dishes and it came that way. Like a little juicer however and option for side of plain rice.

I ordered cauliflower crust but I don't think that's what I got. Just an intolerance to gluten so no issue...but really wanted to try the cauliflower
