Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Richmond Studio Set
From the cobblestone streets of Shockoe Slip to the bustling sound stages in Manchester, Richmond has become the “Hollywood on the James.” Best Food Trucks keeps those productions rolling with fast, reliable studio food truck catering in Richmond, VA.
Our local team works directly with production managers to build rotating daily menus, pinpoint the best service locations, and streamline online ordering so grips, gaffers, and talent can grab a hot meal in minutes—not hours. All vendors are fully vetted for City of Richmond and Commonwealth of Virginia permits and insurance, and we provide a detailed cost analysis that stays on budget while slashing food and packaging waste.
Want Richmond-style comfort food? Book Fantabulous Chef Service LLC, Curbside Creations, or Shakedown Eats. Craving something different for tomorrow’s call sheet? Treat the crew to bao buns and chef-driven Asian specialties from Noahsrockinbuns or turn lunch into a Caribbean getaway with Latin Quarter.
Whether you’re filming along the James River or lighting up a warehouse in Scott’s Addition, Best Food Trucks delivers hot, eco-friendly meals exactly when “quiet on the set” ends. Let us handle the catering so you can focus on the next shot.
Keep Your Production Local—Support RVA’s Small Businesses
Every time you book food truck catering for a Richmond studio shoot, you invest directly in the River City’s creative community. Most of the trucks on our roster are owned by Church Hill neighbors, Southside families, and VCU alumni who pour their time and talent into every empanada, kolache, or brisket slider they serve. Your crew gets chef-made meals on-site, and those dollars stay right here in Richmond—fueling more jobs, more ingredients from the 17th Street Farmers Market, and more growth for home-grown brands.
Choosing a food truck is also a win for the James River and the planet. Mobile kitchens run leaner than traditional caterers, use energy-efficient equipment, and rely on compostable service ware that keeps trash out of our parks and trails. In short, you get hot, customizable eats without the oversized carbon footprint.
So the next time your production assistant types “affordable film set catering in Richmond” into a search bar, skip the generic options and give Best Food Trucks a call. We’ll line up a locally owned truck that makes your budget, your crew, and your city proud.

Piccolo Pizzetta’s pizza truck is truly wonderful! Their New York–style pizza is absolutely delicious—full of flavor, and so authentic. I did have to put it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes to get it super crispy as I prefer. And those zeppoles? They took me straight back to my childhood at a Manhattan pizzeria and the San Gennaro Festival. Such nostalgic, delightful bites! I definitely recommend it if you're craving genuine New York flavor right here in Epperson! 🍕💛

There were three of us. We all had different foods but all of us loved them-we had one Heat burger with onion rings that both folks loved. One person got the veggie burger-I had a taste and we both loved the flavors. I had the Mediterranean salad. I enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and the unexpected flavors of the broccoli and cauliflower.

Nothing specific, my wife just thought the Sonora steak tacos were ok but nothing special. My 3 mahi mahi tacos tasted great but were cold and I had to heat them in the microwave.
