Food truck hire for Barcombe Cross events

Food truck hire for your event in Barcombe Cross

Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. For company away days and milestone birthdays, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, tacos from the hatch and burritos.

In a small place like Barcombe Cross, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Should I do it myself?

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

What we need at the venue

The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:

  • Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
  • Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
  • Power and water, confirmed with each booking

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Dietary needs and planning tips

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:

  • Have shelter ready in case of rain
  • Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
  • Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road
  • Tell us when guests should eat

We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch.

The process

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. A Christmas party in Barcombe Cross with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:15pm.

  1. Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
  2. We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
  3. Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
  4. Service runs at the times you choose.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

How to get a price
