Food truck hire for your event in Abshot
We serve when you want us to: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Let us know your running order. For winter staff parties and back-garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, burritos and loaded nachos and more.
In a hamlet or village like Abshot, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Why choose food truck hire in Abshot?
Food comes from the hatch hot, one order at a time, rather than waiting under foil.
Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We are happy to cater:
- Client events and product launches
- Birthday parties
- Engagements and anniversaries
- End-of-year celebrations
Central London is about 68 miles from Abshot, which can suit a team day out of the city with a hired food truck.

Common questions in Abshot
How far is Abshot from central London?
It’s about 68 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you come to a seaside event near Abshot?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots normally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
- Agree service times with us
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Tell us what serveware you need and we’ll confirm what’s possible.

Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A Christmas party in Abshot with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
