Food truck hire in Barnes Street, from our food truck or trailer
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission. At back-garden parties and end-of-year parties, we can serve loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch.
For a rural spot like Barnes Street, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Planning the serving area
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
- Enough width and height on the route in
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
The menu, item by item
Quesadillas
A quesadilla suits cautious eaters.

Your questions about food truck hire in Barnes Street
We are having a ceremony at Golden Green Mission Church: can you cater afterwards?
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 we hire your food truck for a private party in Barnes Street?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How does food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
If you want guests to remember the food, a private food truck is a strong option. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
