Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Raleigh-Durham Studio Set!
Whether your crew is filming a documentary on Hillsborough Street or shooting the next hit series in a warehouse near the American Tobacco Campus, Best Food Trucks keeps Triangle productions running on time and well fed. Drawing on years of studio food truck catering experience, we’ll coordinate every detail—designing rotating daily menus, mapping the perfect service spots from downtown Raleigh to RTP, and streamlining online ordering and rapid pickup so your AD never blows the schedule.
Our local vendor network is stacked with crowd-pleasers like Poblanos Tacos (authentic Mexican street eats), Mama Voula’s (Mediterranean comfort straight from Yiayia’s kitchen), Shmack’n Plates Bistro (elevated American favorites), La Republica (bold Mexican fusion), and El Jefecito (taco-truck classics done right). All trucks carry current Wake, Durham, or Orange County permits and the insurance paperwork your production accountants demand.
From first call at 5 a.m. to that midnight “martini shot,” our studio food truck catering in Raleigh-Durham slashes food and packaging waste compared with traditional buffet service, keeping the Triangle greener while keeping your budget in check. Let Best Food Trucks handle meal breaks so you can focus on making movie magic—no stress, just satisfied bellies and clean plates.
Fueling the Triangle—and Its Small Businesses
Booking a Best Food Trucks vendor for your Raleigh-Durham studio set does more than keep cast and crew happy—it pumps dollars straight into the local economy. Every truck we dispatch, from a one-woman biscuit rig parked near Southpoint to a family-run BBQ smoker rolling in from Garner, is a home-grown small business. Instead of writing a check to a national caterer, your production money stays here in the Triangle, helping solo entrepreneurs pay their staff, source from North Carolina farms, and keep those distinctive “Shop Local” stickers on their service windows.
Food trucks are also an eco-smart choice for on-set meals. Compact kitchens mean lower fuel and electricity use than a full commissary trailer, while made-to-order service slashes the pan-of-mac-and-cheese waste that traditional buffet lines leave behind. Many of our partners run on biodiesel or tap Duke Energy’s portable EV outlets at Raleigh Studios at Brier Creek, further shrinking your production’s carbon footprint.
So the next time the production coordinator Googles “low-budget film catering near me” from a folding chair off Miami Boulevard, tap Best Food Trucks. You’ll lock in crowd-pleasing menus, strengthen the Triangle’s small-business scene, and keep your set as green as the pines along I-40.

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!

It was delicious, but the food could've been hotter when we received it.

The food was amazing, I had accidentally given them the wrong order number and they were super nice and quick once I realized my mistake. I’d definitely get them again!

Food was good and I would order again. Nothing blew my mind (tho the sauce was quite tasty), but it was a good meal

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.

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.
