Fueling Richmond’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a food truck for your Richmond studio shoot isn’t just the fastest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s a direct investment in the River City’s small-business community. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run operation based right here in RVA, from a husband-and-wife team smoking pork in Northside to an alum of VCU’s arts program slinging bao out of a hand-painted rig.
Because these mobile kitchens prep everything on board, they use a fraction of the electricity and water demanded by traditional drop-off catering. Fewer chafing dishes means less single-use fuel canisters, and cook-to-order service virtually eliminates food waste—perfect for “green set” mandates on larger productions filming in Richmond.
Bottom line: every time you roll a food truck onto your Manchester backlot or Scott’s Addition warehouse set, you’re boosting Richmond’s local economy, shrinking your carbon footprint, and serving plates your cast and crew will rave about.

All food was great. Boom boom shrimp was especially good. Cook was understaffed but did a remarkable job under pressure. Kudos.

Friendly, family like service and delicious pasta! I also appreciate the dressing for the Caesar salad being put on the side, so salad does not get soggy.

Amazing burgers and great value! True smash burger that gives that burger feel. Comeback sauce took it over the top 11/10

It was amazing! Loved the sauce and the chicken and how the chicken was prepared. Wish I had a few more veggies but otherwise loved it. Thanks

Papa Arepas was a big hit at my office. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, food ordering on their digital kiosk was easy and convenient, and the food was superb! We will definitely be having them back.

The listing should specify that addition of ranch in the boom boom wrap will come as a little container instead of being added into the wrap. Also, the wrap was cut with aluminum foil on it which resulted in fragments of aluminum in the wrap.

The staff was super friendly. We were looking forward to the fresh cut fries but they were cold. The burger buns were super fresh.
