About our food truck hire in Ashey
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. At family celebrations and staff summer parties, we can serve quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Ashey, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Food truck hire or something else?

Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
Ashey is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Hiring our taco truck near Ashey
Ashey is about 2 miles south-west of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. For food truck hire in Ashey, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Ashey is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. Our nearest city page is Portsmouth, about 9 miles away.
For guests coming by train, Smallbrook Junction station is about 1.5 miles away. The coast is within about 3 miles of Ashey, so a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots generally need permission.

Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Ask us about evening food later on.
The process
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. December events in Ashey lose the light at about 4:00pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Should I do it myself?

Questions from Ashey
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Ashey?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you cater in villages like Ashey?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you come to Ashey?
We do. We serve at events in Ashey and across the Isle of Wight. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
