How food truck hire works in the Isle of Wight

Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. It works well for engagements and anniversaries and client hospitality, with burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and vegan tacos.

We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens.

  1. Ask us whether your date is available.
  2. We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
  3. The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
  4. We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
  5. We pack down and drive away when service ends.

Hiring a food truck in the Isle of Wight

In the Isle of Wight’s towns, plan parking and loading for the truck or trailer; in its villages, tell us about lanes, gates and ground. We’ll confirm where we park and when we arrive. 116 of the places we cover in the Isle of Wight are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan around the wind at coastal events.

Newport: When the service is at a church such as The Man in the Moon, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. Parks such as Seaclose Park typically need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often simpler. At midsummer, it stays light in Newport until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.

The menu, item by item

Salsas and guacamole

Fresh salsas and guacamole, made for your event.

Tacos from the hatch

Warm tortillas filled to order and finished with salsa, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushroom.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
  • Tell us about coeliac guests
  • Check gate widths and any height limits

When service ends, we pack away and drive off quietly.

Quesadillas make an easy option for children.

How we price food truck hire

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • The length of service
  • Your choice of food and drinks
  • Serving staff
  • The number of people

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • What power and water the site has
  • Diets and allergies you know about

DIY taco night or a caterer?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
