Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Richmond Studio Set
Filming in Scott’s Addition, Shockoe Bottom, or along the James River where “Lincoln,” “Mercy Street,” and countless commercials were shot? Best Food Trucks brings RVA’s most popular food trucks straight to your lot, delivering the kind of studio catering Richmond crews rave about.
We understand the tight call sheets and ever-shifting schedules of life on set. That’s why our Richmond food truck catering service handles everything—securing city permits, plotting the perfect parking spot outside Pine Camp or Main Street Station, setting up online ordering, and creating rotating daily menus that keep even the pickiest gaffer happy. Our detailed cost breakdowns make it easy to stay on budget while still serving hot, chef-driven meals.
Want local flavor? Tap our lineup of RVA favorites:
- Mobile Yum Yum – Caribbean-inspired chicken plates, SweetTooth ice cream, and funnel cakes.
- La Bête – American bistro classics with a Caribbean-Creole twist.
- Birmie's Fixins – Slow-smoked barbecue that tastes like it came straight off a Virginia back-yard pit.
- Fantabulous Chef Service LLC – Stick-to-your-bones American comfort food.
- Curbside Creations – Creative, crowd-pleasing comfort favorites.
Crew members preorder on their phones, swing by the truck, and grab their meals in minutes—cutting downtime and food waste compared with traditional buffets. Eco-friendly packaging keeps your production green, and our vetted vendors carry full insurance so there are zero surprises on shoot day.
From breakfast burritos at 5 a.m. call time to a late-night wrap party spread, Best Food Trucks is your one-stop shop for studio food truck catering in Richmond, VA. Let us feed the crew so you can keep the cameras rolling.
Supporting Richmond’s Small Businesses
Choosing Best Food Trucks for your Richmond studio catering does more than keep your cast and crew happy—it pumps real dollars back into the RVA economy. Every truck we send to your set is a locally owned, family-run operation based in neighborhoods like Church Hill, Manchester, and Forest Hill. Instead of cutting a check to a national caterer, you’re helping Richmond chefs, mechanics, and farmers thrive.
On top of that, food trucks are one of the greenest ways to feed a film crew. Mobile kitchens draw less power than a traditional commissary tent and create far less buffet waste. Many of our vendors compost scraps, offer eco-friendly packaging sourced from suppliers near the 17th Street Farmers Market, and run on cleaner propane or biodiesel.
So the next time you type “film set food truck catering Richmond” or “low-budget studio catering near me” into Google, remember: Best Food Trucks can keep your production on schedule, on budget, and aligned with the sustainable, community-first spirit that defines RVA.

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.

The pies were amazing. A little too rich to eat all at once but I am looking forward to finishing it later. The lemonade was delicious also.

I requested sweet sauce on the side, but pork/fries already drizzled with a more spicy sauce. Dish was a little scarce on the pork.
