Hot, Customizable Meals for Every Richmond Studio Set
From Shockoe Bottom sound stages to Scott’s Addition backlots, Best Food Trucks is the #1 choice for food truck catering for studios in Richmond. We’ve fueled crews on productions like “Lincoln” and “Dopesick,” so we know how crucial a fast, satisfying meal break is when the cameras stop rolling. Our Richmond studio food truck catering program gives you:
- Rotating daily menus packed with local flavor—think La Bête’s Caribbean-Creole New American bites, or fried-chicken perfection from Mobile Yum Yum.
- On-set logistics pros who pinpoint the best serving spots whether you’re filming by the James River or on Brown’s Island.
- Streamlined online ordering and pickup that keeps your AD’s call sheet on schedule.
- Pre-vetted food trucks carrying full permits, insurance, and RVA pride—including Fantabulous Chef Service LLC, Curbside Creations, and Shakedown Eats.
- Transparent cost summaries that fit your production budget and slash food and packaging waste.
Let Best Food Trucks handle the catering so your Richmond studio crew can focus on the next take—not their empty stomachs. Book today and discover why River City productions trust us for reliable, eco-friendly, and downright delicious studio food truck catering.
Fueling Richmond’s Small-Business Scene
Every time you roll a food truck onto your Shockoe Slip set or park one outside those historic sound stages in Manchester, you’re putting money right back into the River City. Most Richmond food trucks are VCU-alumni start-ups, Black-owned kitchens from Jackson Ward, or family crews who prep out of shared commissaries in Northside. Booking them through Best Food Trucks keeps payroll, produce, and tax dollars local—exactly where RVA wants them.
There’s an eco-bonus, too. A single truck sipping a quiet generator on Brown’s Island pulls a fraction of the power a traditional buffet line needs, and our digital ordering system slashes paper and plastic waste faster than the James River current. Many of our vendors source Hanover tomatoes, Ashland honey, and Agriberry Farm berries, so your cast gets hyper-fresh flavor without the long haul trucking.
So the next time your production coordinator types “low budget film catering near me” into Google, send them our way. You’ll get fast, crowd-pleasing meals, Richmond’s small businesses will get another day of work, and the planet will get a breather. That’s a wrap everyone in RVA can cheer for.

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!

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Chef Niki and her food truck! She was so flexible and easy to work with, the food was delicious and served quickly with a smile. She came early and was set up and ready to go when our event started.

Ashley was awesome! She checked in days beforehand to coordinate proper timing and setup, and she endured the extreme heat to provide great food and friendly service for four hours. People really enjoyed the tacos and nacho selections. Outstanding addition to our house party!

The pulled pork sandwich, and the baked beans were very good. I had potato salad, too, but it tasted like a bit too much vinegar. I like creamy potato salad and creamy cold slaw. I will eat from the truck, again.
