Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Rhode Island Studio Set
Whether you’re shooting a thriller on Providence’s historic Benefit Street or filming ocean views in Newport, Best Food Trucks delivers first-class food truck catering for studios across Rhode Island. Our team has spent years feeding film crews from Pawtucket to Westerly, so we know how to keep talent, techs, and producers happy—on time and on budget.
We’ll collaborate with your production office to build rotating daily menus that showcase local favorites. Think Liege waffles and locally roasted coffee from The Burgundian: Coffee and Waffles, warm artisan donuts by Black Dog Donuts, or that unmistakable oak-smoked brisket from No Joke Smoke BBQ. Craving a gooey grilled cheese? Fancheezical has you covered. Want more barbecue? Double down with Le Smoking BBQ. Your crew will feel like they just scored a table on Federal Hill—without ever leaving set.
From scouting the best service location at the Rhode Island State House back lot to managing staggered call-time pickups, we streamline ordering, vet every vendor for state permits and insurance, and provide a clear cost analysis that keeps your AD and accountant smiling. Plus, food truck catering reduces single-use packaging and food waste, helping to keep the Ocean State green.
Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering in Rhode Island—so you can focus on getting the perfect shot while we keep the crew well fed.
Fueling Rhode Island’s Creative Economy
Booking food truck catering for your Rhode Island studio set does more than satisfy hungry cast and crew—it pumps real dollars back into our local economy. Nearly every truck we dispatch is a family-run operation, from a husband-and-wife team rolling out stuffies and chowder to the brother-sister duo serving frosty Del’s-inspired lemonade slushies. When you keep your craft services budget on wheels, you keep it in the Ocean State.
Rhode Island’s film community already knows the power of “Buy Local RI,” and food trucks fit that mission perfectly. Solo entrepreneurs from Providence’s Hope Street to Woonsocket’s Main Street rely on steady studio bookings to stay afloat during the slower winter months. Each order of coffee milk-flavored ice cream or littleneck clam tacos helps a neighborhood business pay rent, hire staff, and source ingredients from nearby farms like Confreda and Four Town.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-forward alternative to traditional buffet lines. Trucks run on demand, draw less power than pop-up kitchens, and cut down on single-use chafing pans. Many of our vendors compost prep scraps and serve with biodegradable utensils, which means your production can hit its sustainability targets without a second thought.
So the next time your production coordinator googles “low-budget film catering near me” or “studio food truck catering Rhode Island,” give Best Food Trucks a call. You’ll feed the crew, support small businesses from Pawtucket to Narragansett, and keep your shoot as green as the grass at Slater Mill.

Generous portions, well seasoned (not over seasoned), very courteous service under time pressure & walk-up customers, as well as unexpected under staffing. Thank you April's Kitchen. At our house, you're a "do again". ☺️

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard
