About our food truck hire in Aldington
Food truck hire suits weddings, milestone birthdays and staff events, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. We serve burritos, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it suits private outdoor parties and anniversary celebrations.
In a hamlet or village like Aldington, our 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. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road
- Email us any allergies
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
Wet weather doesn’t close the hatch, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

How it compares
Hog roasts are popular with meat eaters, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
