Hot, Customizable Meals for Raleigh-Durham Studios
Whether you’re shooting the next Netflix hit on the American Tobacco Campus in Durham or producing a commercial near Raleigh’s Warehouse District, Best Food Trucks delivers reliable, studio-ready catering that keeps cast and crew happy and on schedule. We’ve spent years feeding film sets across the Triangle, so we know how to design rotating daily menus, map out the best serving spots on tight lots, and guarantee that every vendor carries Triangle-area permits and insurance.
Our local lineup gives your production that authentic Raleigh-Durham flavor. Craving street-style tacos? Poblanos Tacos and the Mexican-fusion specialists at La Republica will have the crew yelling “¡Más, por favor!” Need a taste of the Mediterranean without leaving RTP? Book Mama Voula's for fresh gyros and falafel. If an all-American comfort spread is more your vibe, Shmack'n Plates Bistro fires up bistro favorites that even the pickiest PA can’t resist, while El Jefecito brings bold Mexican flavors perfect for late-night shoots.
From 5 a.m. call times to midnight wraps, we streamline online ordering and rapid pickup so meal breaks never derail the shooting schedule. Plus, food truck catering cuts down on disposable trays and food waste, keeping the Triangle green. Let Best Food Trucks handle the catering logistics for your Raleigh-Durham studio—so you can keep the cameras rolling and the crew smiling.
Fueling the Triangle’s Small Businesses
Choosing Best Food Trucks for your Raleigh-Durham studio catering does more than fill stomachs—it keeps the Triangle’s independent food scene thriving. Every truck we dispatch to a soundstage on Fayetteville Street or a greenscreen build in downtown Durham is owned and operated by a local family or solo entrepreneur. Dollars spent on set circulate right back into neighborhood kitchens from Glenwood South to Chapel Hill’s Franklin Street, strengthening the very community that makes filming here so special.
Our roster is packed with Black-, Latinx-, veteran-, and woman-owned food trucks, so your production budget directly supports the diverse voices that define the 919/984. Booking a Raleigh food truck for catering means a sous-chef dad can hire an extra prep cook, or a vegan baker in Durham can finally upgrade her oven. That’s economic impact you can taste.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly choice for studio catering. With built-in kitchens and right-sized cooking, they use far less electricity and water than a traditional commissary tent, while onboard serviceware programs slash landfill waste. Our vendors recycle fryer oil at biodiesel stations near Research Triangle Park, and many trucks run on renewable propane.
So the next time your line producer Googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “Durham studio food truck,” skip the chafing dishes and call Best Food Trucks. You’ll keep your crew happy, your carbon footprint low, and Raleigh-Durham’s small businesses rolling strong.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

The turkey burger was very well made and the fries were salted and spiced just right. Good crunch too.

Even though burger was a bit cold because I got there later, it had good flavor with spice level, texture was still firm and buns were not soggy or greasy

El Jefecito was so easy to work with. The tacos were delicious and the churros were out of this world. Our employees kept going back for a second Churro.

Frank and the crew were very friendly and accommodated those with dietary restrictions (GF, vegetarian, etc.) They even decided to set up cash payment so they could service a few other guests from another part of our organization that did not have tickets. The service was pretty fast, despite the line. The food was really good and I had several peoplke comment to me that they enjoyed the food very much. The food truck made the event a complete success, especially on this hot day! I would definitely use them again for another event and I will provide positive feedback to our property managers in hopes they will put Mama Voula's truck on our weekly Tuesday Food Truck rotation.
