Prices and what affects them
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Parking and the route in
- Whether you need disposables
- Your choice of food and drinks
There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. At midsummer, it stays light in Ashton Green until about 9:15pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Give us a contact for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Ashton Green questions
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Ashton Green?
Yes, as long as we are available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin?
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. Send us the reception address.
What areas do you cover?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. See our food truck wedding guide.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
