Hot, Customizable Meals for New York Studios—Ready When You Call “Cut!”
From Chelsea sound stages to Kaufman Astoria backlots, Best Food Trucks is the go-to choice for food truck catering for studios in New York. Our team has years of experience feeding film and TV crews on tight schedules, so we know how to keep the talent, grips, and gaffers happy without slowing production.
We’ll work side-by-side with your production coordinator to create rotating daily menus, choose the perfect curbside or lot location for service, and streamline online ordering and pickup. Every vendor we bring on set is fully vetted for NYC permits and insurance, and you’ll receive a clear, line-item cost breakdown that stays on budget—no surprises when the credits roll.
Want crowd-pleasers? Book local legends like Yankee Doodle Dandy's for crispy chicken sandwiches, Smash Burger for perfectly seared patties, or Jiannetto's Pizza for authentic grandma-style Sicilian slices. Need a global spin? MAKINA Cafe brings Ethiopian-Eritrean flavors right to your loading dock. And when the cast craves something sweet after a night shoot, the Carvel Ice Cream Truck is ready with classic vanilla-chocolate twists.
Food truck catering helps keep New York greener, too—smaller prep batches mean less food waste, and eco-friendly packaging cuts down on trash. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics of studio catering in NYC so you can stay focused on making movie magic.
Boost NYC’s Small Businesses, One Food Truck at a Time
Choosing food truck catering for your New York studio set does more than silence grumbling stomachs—it pumps real dollars back into the five boroughs. Every truck we roll onto your lot is owned by an independent chef or family-run operation, whether it’s a Queens mom-and-pop slinging dumplings, a Brooklyn pit-master perfecting brisket, or a Bronx baker serving cafecito and pastelitos between takes.
Because these vendors live and prep right here in NYC, your production budget stays local, supporting neighborhood commissary kitchens, union food suppliers, and city permits instead of out-of-state conglomerates. That’s studio catering that keeps New York working.
Food trucks are also a greener alternative to traditional buffet lines. Compact mobile kitchens use less energy, smaller batch cooking cuts food waste, and most of our partners serve with compostable serviceware and participate in NYC-approved grease-recycling programs. Cleaner shoots, lighter carbon footprint—your sustainability team will thank you.
So when the script calls for “lunch, interior, day,” skip the chafing dishes and book NYC’s best small-business food trucks. The next time you search for “studio food truck catering in New York,” let Best Food Trucks deliver flavor, community, and eco-friendly convenience right to your sound stage.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

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.
