Hot, Customizable Meals Delivered to Your St. Louis Studio Set
Searching for reliable food truck catering for your studio in St. Louis? Best Food Trucks has your crew covered from Benton Park to the Central West End. We’ve spent years feeding film, TV, and commercial shoots under the Gateway Arch, so we know how to keep talent and crew happy—no matter how early the call time or how late the wrap.
Whether you’re shooting B-roll on the Eads Bridge, recording interviews in a Downtown loft, or building sets at one of the new soundstages in Midtown’s CORTEX district, our team will:
- Design rotating daily menus that accommodate vegan, gluten-free, and hearty Midwest appetites alike.
- Scout the best service locations so trucks can roll in and out without blocking the grip truck or the “Gooey Butter” craft-services table.
- Streamline online ordering and timed pickup, keeping meal breaks on schedule.
- Vet every vendor for St. Louis health permits, insurance, and Fire Marshal compliance.
- Provide a transparent cost analysis that keeps your production accountant smiling.
Choose from local favorites your crew will recognize the moment the service window opens:
- Havana's Cuisine – authentic Cuban sandwiches and plantain chips that bring a taste of Little Havana to Laclede’s Landing.
- Takozz – street-style tacos, quesabirria, and zesty elotes perfect for a quick bite between takes on Cherokee Street.
- Homestyle Grill Food Truck – classic American comfort food that feels like lunch at your favorite South City diner.
- Buzz's Hawaiian Grill – island-inspired plates that turn the back lot into Waikiki, at least for lunch.
- Blues Fired Pizza – wood-fired pies so good even the Stanley Cup stops by when it’s in town.
Food truck catering cuts down on packaging waste and eliminates the massive buffet leftovers that usually hit the dumpster after lunch. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics while you focus on lighting the next scene. From the Hill to Hazelwood, we make St. Louis studio catering simple, delicious, and on budget—so your only worry is getting the perfect shot.
Fueling St. Louis Dreams & Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your studio shoot isn’t just the smartest way to keep cast and crew fed—it’s a direct investment in St. Louis–owned small businesses. Most of the trucks that pull up outside your set are family-run outfits from neighborhoods like Soulard, Maplewood, and the Grove. Every order of toasted ravioli or “slinger” tacos keeps payroll local, fills the tip jars of your neighbors, and pumps dollars back into the 314 economy.
Food truck catering is also the eco-friendly choice for productions watching their footprint. With onboard kitchens that sip electricity, minimal packaging, and digital ordering that nixes paper menus, trucks create far less waste than the sprawling buffet tables you’ll see on other lots. Your sustainability team—and Mother Nature—will thank you.
So the next time you type “low-budget film catering near me” or “food truck catering for a St. Louis studio” into your phone, skip the generic options. Let Best Food Trucks roll up with locally sourced meals, smaller carbon footprints, and big Midwestern flavor. Supporting the Lou never tasted so good.

The food from Dragon's Den Cafe was delicious! We loved the uniqueness of the dishes, as well as the variety of offerings. Even the burgers weren't just burgers-they were unique and delicious in their own right. The variety of coffees and energy drinks was a definite plus. The staff was wonderful, too! We highly recommend Dragon's Den Cafe!

not one complaint about the food or service. Operators of the truck were very personable. I would and will recommend to others. Only thing i would add is some side heat on the spice. Some expressed the taste is great but would have liked to add some heat on the side

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.
