Fresh, Maine-Made Meals Delivered Right to Your Portland Studio Set!
Whether you’re filming a seaside scene at Fort Gorges, a downtown shoot on Congress Street, or a night exterior on Munjoy Hill, Best Food Trucks keeps your crew fueled and on schedule with top-notch food truck catering for studios in Portland, ME. Our local team understands the unique cadence of film production in the Pine Tree State, from unpredictable Casco Bay weather to those early call times when the fog still hugs Back Cove.
We partner with some of Portland’s favorite mobile kitchens—think gooey comfort classics from PB&ME, creative takes on a summertime staple at Mainely Hotdogs, delicate sweet and savory crêpes from Crepe Elizabeth, vegan-friendly fairground treats at Fred's Fried Dough, and crispy chicken perfection courtesy of Frozen Rooster.
Our studio catering experts will craft rotating daily menus that highlight Maine’s seasonal bounty—wild blueberries in July, maple drizzle in March, and hearty root veggies when the chill rolls in off the Atlantic. We’ll pinpoint optimal serving locations for quick walk-ups, streamline mobile ordering so grips and gaffers aren’t stuck in line, verify every vendor’s insurance and city permits, and provide a clear cost breakdown that respects your production budget.
Choosing food truck catering for your Portland studio not only delights cast and crew, it also cuts down on food and packaging waste—so you can keep your carbon footprint as small as a Maine lobster boat’s wake. Let Best Food Trucks handle the meals while you focus on getting that perfect shot of Portland Head Light. From sunrise coffee service to late-night wrap snacks, we’ve got your set covered.
Fueling Portland (ME) Productions—And the Small Businesses Behind Them
Booking food truck catering for your Portland studio shoot does more than fill hungry stomachs—it keeps our city’s independent culinary scene thriving. Every lobster roll, banh mi, or whoopie-pie sundae you order puts revenue directly into the hands of family-run trucks parked all over the Old Port, Bayside, and Deering.
Because these rolling kitchens operate with compact equipment and minimal staff, they draw far less power than a brick-and-mortar caterer and produce considerably less packaging waste. Most Portland trucks already partner with Garbage to Garden for composting, and many run on biodiesel sourced right here in Maine. Choosing a truck is an easy way to lower your production’s carbon footprint while staying true to the Pine Tree State’s eco-friendly ethos.
So the next time your production manager types “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering Portland ME” into a search bar, skip the generic options and call Best Food Trucks. We’ll connect you with the city’s most creative, sustainable mobile chefs—ensuring every take is powered by fresh, locally made flavor.

It was the best gluten-free pizza I've had since New York City and the chocolate Dubai dessert was amazing. I hope they come to Starkey ranch again soon!!

Once home, we discovered that we weren't given the broth that was to accompany the Birrias or the sauce and limes that were to accompany the tacos. Disappointing...
