MENUS
BREAKFAST
Breakfast Selections
Breakfast choices can be as simple as fresh baked items, cereals, and fresh fruit to as elaborate as multiple action stations where our highly-skilled Chefs will prepare virtually any dish made-to-order with a limitless array of fresh ingredients.
In addition to various buffet options, catering clients can order ala carte directly from our mobile kitchens. Hanna Brothers’ Chefs offer freshly prepared specialty items such as breakfast burritos, quesadillas, and a wide array of breakfast sandwiches. Our Chefs will always use their best efforts to meet any special requests or dietary needs.
LUNCH
Lunch Selections
Our famous buffet offerings begin with a beautiful display of fresh salads that may include locally grown organic items. We can supply a variety of up to 40 healthy salad bar toppings and six daily homemade dressings. There are always whole and sliced local fruits and berries that are in season; and home-baked breads capped off with a delectable selection of cakes, pies and cookies.
The HB hot lunch buffet showcases a variety of fresh vegetables, starches, and entrees. Additionally, our Chefs can prepare themed/international menus on a weekly basis. If so desired, our catering crew will man action stations with options such as tossed salad stations, pasta bars, taco bars, seafood stations, and—when weather and location permit—sizzling steaks, chops and local-market grilled vegetables right off the BBQ.

PEOPLE
At Hanna Brothers, we know that great people make the difference. That’s why “with character” is part of our brand. Every Hanna Brothers team member take our commitment to producing the highest quality product, on time and on budget, very seriously.
A FEW OF OUR FILM CHEFS:
FILM CATERING EQUIPMENT
In order to provide the best quality in efficient, on-location catering, Hanna Brothers uses twenty-four foot step vans that have been professionally converted into custom-built kitchens.
We employ a full-time mechanical team who keep our equipment running perfectly and help to make sure things go smoothly while on location.
We have enough kitchens and support equipment to work on eight different projects simultaneously.
Our equipment meets or exceeds all health department requirements for mobile kitchen equipment, and our trucks are always permitted with the local authorities.
Our commissaries are equipped to properly dispose of both waste grease and grey water.

Testimonials
Hanna Brothers is proud to work with our great clients!
The preparation, planning and logistics of making food fit a King come from a truck on the curb is astounding… the good people make great things happen.
Thank you for the best food I’ve ever had on a film.
Thanks again for all your GREAT food! I’ve been in the business for 26 years and have never had such a consistently great meals until “Juwanna Man”. You guys have really hit your stride. Continued success to you and your hard working team.
Treme’s regular season shoot schedule spans seven long months from Fall thru Spring. We are rarely in the same place for breakfast and lunch and almost never film in the same location from one day to the next. Hanna Bros Catering regularly overcomes these logistical hurdles all while meeting the challenges of pleasing the same crew day in and day-out for 28 weeks in a row. The rotating menus provide for plenty of variety with a combination of local sourced regional favorites, always healthy alternatives and seasonal classics. Always ready on time and never a complaint when the schedule changes. Whenever possible added bonuses like smoothie bars or made-to-order pasta bar and taco bars help keep the crew spirits high when the hours get long. Jim and Joe Hanna are always available to troubleshoot and work with our production when scheduling issues arise. The chef and his crew take an obvious pride in their work with the goal of keeping the crew happy as their primary focus. You’d be hard pressed to find a more experienced, professional and film savvy catering company to meet your productions needs than Hanna Brothers.
The best food and best service in the film business
I’ve worked with Hanna Brothers several times and they are always my first choice when it comes to quality, flexibility, service, price and professionalism.
During my time as an actor I’ve worked on a wide variety of film and TV productions, including “Burn Notice.” When I see the Hanna Brothers trucks on set, its puts a smile on my face, as I know the cast and crew of the production will be taken well care of by a polite and caring staff serving well prepared, four star restaurant quality food.
I have yet to encounter a bad breakfast or lunch from Hanna, with a wide variety of choices to satisfy everyone. And regardless of those long days, your staff is always on the ball. No matter how remote the filming location may be, served under tents, the quality Hanna Brothers brings to the set never suffers. Hanna is the best in the business.
These guys are THE BEST. Many shows in many locations and I’ve never been let down……always on time and with gracious style. Their food is outstanding. I love ’em.
The best food on set ever!
It was 2 months of the best eating I’ve ever done! You guys are the best! Thanks Again.
Your team did a great job! Wonderful working with you.
Thank you for taking such good care of me. You really are the best…and I’ll never forget your balls…MATZAH Balls that is!
