Hot, Customizable Meals—Ready When Your Raleigh-Durham Studio Calls “Lunch!”
From the indie soundstages in downtown Durham to the larger productions shooting near Raleigh’s famed Research Triangle Park, Best Food Trucks is the Triangle’s first choice for on-set food truck catering. We’ve spent years feeding film crews, grips, and gaffers all across North Carolina, so we know how to keep service fast, menus exciting, and budgets on track.
Our local team will curate rotating daily menus that showcase the best of the area—think smoky birria from Poblanos Tacos, Mediterranean comfort plates courtesy of Mama Voula's, or Southern-style burgers from Shmack'n Plates Bistro. Craving something a little more fusion? We can line up bold flavors from La Republica or late-night tacos from El Jefecito for those overtime shoots.
You pick the call time, we handle the rest: optimal truck placement on your lot, streamlined online ordering, real-time pickup notifications, and a detailed cost analysis that fits your production schedule. Every truck we book is fully vetted for Wake and Durham County permits and carries up-to-date insurance, so you can focus on getting the perfect shot, not the paperwork.
Food truck catering also lightens your environmental footprint—fewer chafing pans, less packaging waste, and zero leftover buffet trays heading to the landfill. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of mealtime on set so your Raleigh-Durham studio can keep the cameras rolling without interruption.
Fueling Creativity—and Raleigh-Durham’s Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your Triangle shoot isn’t just convenient—it’s a direct investment in the mom-and-pop kitchens that make Raleigh and Durham deliciously unique. Every time you invite a truck to your set, you’re putting revenue back into local families from South Saunders Street to Durham’s Ninth Street, keeping our culinary scene vibrant long after the director yells “Cut!”
Nearly all of the rigs we roll onto studio lots are owner-operated. That means the chef taking your crew’s online orders is the same person who perfected that Cheerwine-glazed BBQ sauce or hand-rolled those vegan collard-green wraps. Your craft-service dollars stay hyper-local, circulating through Wake, Durham, and Orange Counties instead of disappearing into a national catering chain.
Food trucks are also a greener way to feed cast and crew in the Research Triangle. Because each kitchen is built for “cook-to-order” service, trucks draw less power than a traditional buffet setup and eliminate mountains of single-use pans. We encourage compostable flatware and have partnered with Toward Zero Waste NC to keep those post-lunch takes landfill-free.
So the next time your production assistant searches for “low-budget film catering near me” from a folding chair at Screen Gems Studios, give Best Food Trucks a call. You’ll score crowd-pleasing meals, shrink your carbon footprint, and champion Raleigh-Durham’s tastemakers—all before the slate snaps on the next scene.

The food, service, and support were incredible. They were so good that we wanted to add another day of rental for the next day at our production, but they were already booked. Will definitely work with 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.
