Hot, Customizable Meals for Portland, ME Studio Sets

From Munjoy Hill’s sweeping Casco Bay views to the historic brick warehouses in the Old Port, Portland, Maine has become a sought-after backdrop for film, TV, and commercial shoots. Best Food Trucks brings years of on-set experience to the Forest City, serving fresh, piping-hot meals that keep cast and crew energized and shoots on schedule. Our local team tailors rotating daily menus, pinpoints the best curbside spots for service—even on Portland’s famously narrow streets—and streamlines online ordering so everyone gets fed fast.

We work only with fully vetted Portland food trucks, each carrying proper city permits and liability insurance. Craving comfort food? Try a gooey creation from PB&ME. Need a quick bite between takes? Mainely Hotdogs can dish out classic red snappers with all the fixings in minutes. For something lighter, the sweet-and-savory crêpes at Crepe Elizabeth never disappoint. Looking to please vegan or gluten-free palates? Falafel Mafia serves Mediterranean favorites everyone can enjoy. And when the script calls for ocean-to-table flavor, Mobile Musette reels in gourmet seafood straight from the Gulf of Maine.

Every order is tracked, tallied, and delivered with a detailed cost analysis that stays within your production budget. Plus, using food trucks cuts down on food and packaging waste—good news for Portland’s eco-minded crews. Let Best Food Trucks handle the catering logistics for your next studio shoot in Portland, ME, so you can focus on capturing that perfect lighthouse shot at Fort Williams Park.

Fueling Portland’s Creative Economy

Booking a Best Food Trucks vendor for your studio shoot isn’t just convenient—it’s a direct investment in Portland, ME’s small-business scene. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run operation that belongs to the Portland Buy Local network or sets up weekly at neighborhood spots like Deering Oaks and the Spring Street Farmers’ Market. When your crew orders lobster rolls or red snapper hotdogs curbside, the dollars stay right here in the Forest City, circulating from Munjoy Hill coffee shops to West End gear-rental houses.

Food trucks also check the eco-friendly box that so many Portland productions require. Mobile kitchens draw far less power than a traditional craft-services tent and rely on compostable serviceware that aligns with the city’s waste-reduction ordinances. Because we cook to order, there’s minimal food waste—good news for Casco Bay and your sustainability report.

So the next time your location manager types “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food trucks Portland ME” into Google, give us a shout. We’ll roll up with locally sourced menus, transparent pricing, and the peace of mind that comes from supporting the very community that makes Portland such a photogenic place to shoot.

The brisket tacos were phenomenal. The sandwiches were also very good, a little saucier than my preference but I like little to no sauce, that's not a reflection of you guys, but it is all is very delicious.

please bring this one back. All of the sandwiches were great even the tater tots were soft in the middle and crispy on the outside perfect.

Make pictures more appealing- that was a large problem last night. You need a photographer or something to make those pictures were artistic . The pictures of the Philly cheesesteak do not look good and the burgers all look wilted. The taste of the food is not translating in the pictures. Your onion rings are delicious. Chicken fingers are average. You need a honey mustard dipping sauce. Cheeseburger was very good - add a pickle spear on the side. Fries were average Also add more choices than just Coke - and maybe you have them, but it doesn't show up on line.
