Food truck hire in Aldrington, served fresh
Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and vegan tacos, which works well for end-of-year celebrations and christenings and family parties.
Hire our food truck for an event near Aldrington and the kitchen comes with it; all we need is a level spot, a way in and permission. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. December events in Aldrington lose the light at about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Before we arrive

- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Share your running order
The hatch opens at the time you choose.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
Your questions about food truck hire in Aldrington
We are having a ceremony at St Philip's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to Aldrington?
Guests can use Portslade station, about 0.6 miles north-west of Aldrington.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable, especially in the evening. We’ll check access and timings with your venue.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we do not serve passers-by. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
How we price food truck hire
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Timings and hours
- Guest numbers
- Staff for serving and the bar
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.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
