Food truck hire near Addington
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Guest numbers
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Your choice of food and drinks
- What the venue already provides
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What you’d like on the menu
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. To ask for one, use our quote form.
Food truck hire for your event in Addington
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It’s simple, quick and sociable for guests and hosts. It works well for garden parties and winter staff parties, serving quesadillas, tacos from the hatch and vegan tacos.
In a hamlet or village like Addington, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Addington questions
Do you come out to small places like Addington?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve in Manor Park Country Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
How does private food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we will go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Tell us what serveware you need and we will confirm the options in your quote.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
What’s on the menu
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese and a filling.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
How the day works
