Piping-Hot, Customizable Meals for Your New Orleans Studio Set

When the cameras are rolling on the Crescent City’s bustling soundstages, you don’t have time for cold po-boys or lukewarm coffee. Best Food Trucks has spent years feeding film and television crews from the Bywater to the Westbank, so we know exactly how to keep your talent and techs happy—and on schedule. Our New Orleans studio food truck catering service designs rotating, locally inspired menus, coordinates exact serving locations (from the Lower Garden District to a swamp set in Lafitte), streamlines online ordering and pickup, and vets every vendor for City of New Orleans permits and insurance. You’ll receive a clear cost breakdown that fits your production budget, and because food trucks generate far less packaging waste than traditional buffet service, you’ll keep both Mother Earth and the French Quarter clean.

Give your crew a true taste of NOLA: start the week with a steaming bowl of jambalaya from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux, break for lunch on Taco Tuesday with the award-winning arepas at La Cocinita NOLA, or let Friday wrap with a Second-Line-worthy gourmet hot dog from Diva Dawg Food Truck. Looking for something eclectic? Creole Tomateaux dishes up fusion flavors you won’t find on any backlot craft table. And when your grips need pure comfort after a night shoot, Kingdom Cafe 7003 LLC brings the soul-soothing classics.

From sunrise call sheets to midnight wrap parties, Best Food Trucks makes New Orleans studio catering effortless. Let us handle the meals so you can focus on capturing that perfect shot—laisser les bons temps rouler!

On Location Catering catering

Fueling Your Shoot — and the New Orleans Small-Business Scene

Every po-boy slinger and gumbo guru behind a New Orleans food truck is a neighbor, not a faceless corporation. Booking studio food truck catering in New Orleans means the craft-services budget you spend on set flows straight back into Treme kitchens, Gentilly commissaries, and family-run fryer trucks parked under Claiborne’s oaks. Our roster is packed with solo entrepreneurs, husband-and-wife crews, and multigenerational Black-owned businesses who season every dish with Crescent City pride.

Choosing food trucks isn’t just good for the neighborhood—it’s good for the planet and your production schedule. Mobile kitchens sip far less power than a giant buffet line, and their on-truck service cuts down on the mountains of Styrofoam you’ll never see rolling down Esplanade after wrap. Less waste, lighter footprint, happier location managers.

Ready to keep things local, green, and delicious? The next time you tap that search bar for “studio food truck catering New Orleans” or “low-budget film catering near me,” call Best Food Trucks. We’ll roll up with hot plates, hometown flavor, and a business model that lets the good times—and the local economy—roll.

This was my first time looking into getting a food truck on site to feed our employees. You guys made it very easy and so did Paul, with Doc E's BBQ! The food was delicious and everyone I talked to say the same! The portions were perfect and was a very easy process. I had the pulled pork with slaw on top for my first plate and then later on Paul gave us a pan of ribs that were phenomenal!

Kenny and his team were amazing! The over delivered for a prospective customer! Each dish was beautiful and tasted even better. People were taking pictures of their plates before diving into the huge portions! We will definitely use them again!

The churros were absolutely delicious - fresh, warm, perfectly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside! The team was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience so fun. Such a great addition to any event, and our guests loved it. Highly recommend!

I had so many employees come up and tell me how great the food was and how wonderful the food truck employees were! We ended up with a lot more people attending our picnic than we had originally planned on and both Wiseguy and High On Tacos were more than accommodating with the overflow.

We had Wiseguy food truck out at our summer company picnic and they were a huge hit! We'll definitely book them again!

The taste, everything was delicious. I normally don't take well to tomato, but it was so delicious in the caprese!
