DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Allington questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Whatman Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Nicholas' Church?
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.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well. We agree access and timings with the venue.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. At midsummer, it stays light in Allington until about 9:15pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
Ask for a quote
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

What food truck hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
- The number of people
- Staff for serving and the bar
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What you’d like on the menu
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Space, access and the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you. What matters most:
- A spot away from neighbours
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
