About our food truck hire in Andover Down
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it suits family celebrations and winter staff parties.
Near Andover Down, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish, so guests can ask before ordering.
