Hot, Customizable Meals for Traverse City Studios
Whether your cameras are rolling at 1890 Studios off Front Street, a soundstage near the Cherry Capital Airport, or on location along Old Mission Peninsula, Best Food Trucks is the local expert in food truck catering for studios in Traverse City. Our team has spent years feeding crews during the Traverse City Film Festival and countless UpNorth Media shoots, so we understand the tight schedules and big appetites that come with production days on the 45th parallel.
We’ll collaborate with your production office to build rotating daily menus that keep talent and crew energized—think hearty Polish comfort food from Lost Village Pierogi: "The Polished Cuban Grill" on Monday, and fresh-off-the-griddle street tacos from King Wubbz on Tuesday. Our logistics team scouts the best parking spots near your set, handles permits with the City of Traverse City, and streamlines online ordering so everyone can grab their meal and get back to work before the sun drops behind Grand Traverse Bay.
From detailed cost analyses that protect your budget to eco-friendly service that reduces food and packaging waste, Best Food Trucks removes the guesswork from studio catering in Traverse City. Book your food truck lineup today and give your crew one less thing to worry about—so they can focus on capturing those beautiful northern Michigan shots.
Fueling Your Shoot—and the Traverse City Economy
Booking a food truck for your studio set isn’t just convenient; it’s a direct investment in Traverse City’s vibrant small-business community. Most of our partner trucks are run by local families you’ll see at the Sara Hardy Farmers Market on Saturdays or cheering at Pit Spitters games on summer nights. Every taco, pierogi, and smash burger you purchase keeps dollars circulating along Front Street instead of heading downstate.
Food trucks also tread lightly on our beloved bays and peninsulas. Because they cook to order in compact kitchens, trucks draw far less power than a traditional buffet line, and their compostable serviceware means fewer trash bags headed to the Keystone Road landfill. Many vendors even source ingredients from Leelanau County growers—so those cherry-chipotle ribs really do taste like northern Michigan.
The next time your production coordinator types “Traverse City studio food truck catering” or “low-budget film catering near me,” remember that Best Food Trucks connects you with operators who nourish crews and the community. Pick a socially responsible, flavor-packed solution for your next call sheet and keep your set—and Traverse City—thriving.

They used a lot of pepper in the rice today. More so than normal. I have been eating their food since they were in the store in Nolensville.

Hello, I missed my pickup because I got held up at work. That’s my fault. Would it be ok to get my order next time Magic Hibachi are at the PCT buildings? I’d be fine with that if they are.

I love everything about the balsamic strawberry salad; all the right ingredients and the right portions. I appreciate that I can easily get my mouth around the grilled sandwiches and they are not too greasy when picking up. If course they taste great too!
