About our food truck hire in Barford St Michael
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so there’s no need for kitchen space at the venue. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. It works well for garden parties and engagement parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
For a rural spot like Barford St Michael, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A hired food truck at a summer event in Barford St Michael can serve in daylight until about 9:30pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:10pm. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To make it work smoothly:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Send allergy details in writing
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Nachos for sharing at the start are a good way to begin.
