Food truck hire for Arundel events
Food truck hire for your event in Arundel
Food truck hire suits weddings, milestone birthdays and staff events, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. It suits christenings and family parties and company away days, with tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos.
In a smaller place like Arundel, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Late-September events in Arundel see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Name one person we can ask on the day
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, tell us about it on our contact page.

FAQs for Arundel
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Trinity Congregational Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
How does food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook, serve and clear away.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Prices and what affects them
Contact us for a quote, and the price is based on:
- The length of service
- The menu you choose
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
