Hot, Customizable Meals for Wilmington, NC Studios—Ready When You Call “Lunch”!
From EUE/Screen Gems on North 23rd to the indie sound stages tucked along the Cape Fear River, Wilmington is known as “Hollywood East” for a reason. Best Food Trucks has spent years perfecting on-set food truck catering, so your Wilmington studio can keep cameras rolling and crews happy. We design rotating daily menus that highlight local North Carolina flavors, schedule trucks where your gaffers and grips can grab a plate in under five minutes, and handle every permit and insurance detail required by New Hanover County.
Picture this: a sun-soaked lunch break on the Riverwalk featuring beach-fresh Caribbean bowls from Hummingbird Island Cuisine, ooey-gooey mac & cheese creations from Nude Food, or Wilmington’s juiciest smash burgers courtesy of Williams deluxe. When the afternoon heat kicks in, cool the crew down with shaved-ice perfection from MarveLicious Water Ice or the crave-worthy fried hoagies everyone calls “Zoagies” at Zoagies. Every truck we bring on-site is fully vetted, insured, and ready to serve even the most persnickety eaters on your call sheet.
Our streamlined online ordering keeps cast and crew socially distanced and on schedule, while detailed cost summaries make it easy to stay within your production budget. Plus, food truck catering in Wilmington, NC slashes food and packaging waste—good for your bottom line and our beautiful beaches. Let Best Food Trucks take the guesswork out of studio catering so you can focus on getting that perfect take.
Supporting Wilmington’s Small Businesses—One Food Truck at a Time
Every time you book Best Food Trucks for studio catering in Wilmington, NC, you’re investing directly in the Port City community. Nearly all of the trucks we dispatch—from the surf-inspired taco rig you’ve spotted at Wrightsville Beach to the smoky Carolina-style BBQ trailer that sets up near Battleship Park—are owned and operated by Wilmington locals who live, shop, and hire right here in New Hanover County. Instead of flying in a corporate craft-services crew from Atlanta, you keep those production dollars circulating along Front Street and Market Street where they belong. That’s film production done the Wilmington way.
Food trucks also deliver a greener, leaner alternative to traditional catering tents. Each mobile kitchen sips electricity, minimizes water use, and serves meals in compostable containers—perfect for eco-minded productions protecting the Cape Fear River and our barrier-island beaches. So the next time your coordinator searches “low budget film catering near me” or “food truck studio catering Wilmington NC,” remember you can get mouth-watering meals, lighter waste, and community impact all in one parking spot. Hit us up and let’s feed the crew while fueling Wilmington’s small-business scene.

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!

Comments from Inspira Senior VP: The staff loved it. The vendor even made sandwiches & waffles brought them to OR staff that couldn’t get to the truck. They came from Morris County in north jersey. Very pleasant & accommodating. Please let them know of the great service

The macaroni and cheese was cooked perfectly, the cheese had a great flavor, and the bacon was nice and crispy. There was a great amount of bacon for the topping, and I felt like the portion of macaroni and cheese was decent. I will definitely order from this food truck the next time I want to try the brisket.

Fresh and flavorful. Even after sitting in the container after I picked it up the sandwich still had a crisp to it as well as the tator tots. Well cooked and not soggy at all
