Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Traverse City Studio Crew
Whether you’re filming on the historic State Hospital grounds, staging a shoot along West Grand Traverse Bay, or recording inside a downtown Front Street warehouse, Best Food Trucks delivers the most dependable food truck catering for studios in Traverse City. Our Northern Michigan team understands the tight timelines and demanding appetites that come with production work—and we make sure every meal break runs like clockwork.
We curate rotating daily menus that please everyone on set. Craving homestyle Polish comfort food? Book Lost Village Pierogi: The Polished Cuban Grill for pillowy pierogi and sizzling Cubans. Need handheld bites your crew can eat between takes? King Wubbz rolls up with fresh street-style tacos that disappear faster than a Lake Michigan sunset.
Best Food Trucks handles the details you don’t have time for: vetting every vendor for Grand Traverse County permits and insurance, plotting ideal truck parking near your soundstage, and streamlining online ordering so cast and crew can pre-select meals before the lunch bell rings. After service, you’ll receive a transparent cost summary that keeps your production budget on track.
Choosing food truck catering in Traverse City isn’t just convenient—it’s sustainable. Individually prepared meals mean less food waste and eco-friendly packaging, all while showcasing the local flavors our city is famous for. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering so you can focus on capturing that perfect northern-light shot.
Fueling Traverse City’s Creative Economy
Booking food truck catering for your Traverse City studio doesn’t just keep cast and crew happy—it keeps our hometown thriving. Every truck we place on your set is a family-run Northern Michigan business that buys cherries from Elk Rapids growers, whitefish from local docks, and bread from the iconic Common Good Bakery. Your lunch budget circulates right back into the 231.
Food trucks are also a natural fit for eco-friendly productions. Compact kitchens mean lower energy use than a traditional commissary, while compostable serviceware keeps Bayside recycling bins light. Fewer generators, less trash, more “action.”
So the next time you’re googling “low-budget film catering in Traverse City,” remember that Best Food Trucks connects you with the area’s most loved rolling restaurants. Serve unforgettable meals, support small businesses, and keep your carbon footprint as tiny as a cherry pit—all in one take.

Food was amazing. Chef Yarwood clearly knows what he is doing. The steak tips with mushrooms and onions as well as the Mac and cheese were truly delicious. I will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Good pizza! I love the crust and the garlic is over the top! Suggestion: allow me to add sausage and extra basil to the base white pizza without adding red sauce.😉

I found the cheese pizza to be salty and the margherita pizza needed more tomato sauce. The cauliflower crust was good as was the balsamic vinaigrette.

I was home and didn’t plan on going back out. I got a pop up that the Melt Machine was a few minutes away. I placed an order and left my house for a grilled cheese and tots! LOVE the Melt Machine!!!!

The sandwich and salad combination is a good value: whole sandwich and large salad. It was also very tasty.

The food was delicious. For the price it would have been nice to have an egg roll in the plate. But it was really good.
