On Location Catering catering

Fueling Richmond’s Small-Business Scene

Booking food truck catering for your Richmond studio shoot does more than keep talent happy—it pumps dollars straight back into the River City. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run operation based in neighborhoods like Carytown, Church Hill, and Northside. When your production orders lunch, you’re helping a local chef pay rent on a Broad Street commissary, hire VCU students as line cooks, and source produce from Goochland farms.

Food trucks are also an eco-smart choice for film set catering in Richmond. Because meals are cooked to order on the rig, there’s no need for chafing dishes, sternos, or mountains of disposable trays—meaning fewer trash runs to the Southside transfer station and less single-use plastic floating toward the James River. Lower generator time and condensed prep space equal a smaller carbon footprint than traditional craft services.

So the next time you’re Googling “budget-friendly studio catering in Richmond” between camera setups, call Best Food Trucks. You’ll get hot, customizable menus, your crew will get a morale boost, and Richmond’s small-business community will get one more reason to keep those wheels turning.

The $11 Onion Rings had me questioning everything, but the burger was good. 👍 I wanted onion rings, but my mama would've came down from Heaven and smacked me in the head for paying that. The Cowboy burger had 2 onion rings on it and didn't raise the price by $5.....
