About our food truck hire in Beech
We serve when you want us to: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. It works well for back-garden parties and parties in venue grounds, with burrito bowls, quesadillas and burritos.
Somewhere as small as Beech, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Share your running order
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Give us separate numbers for children
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook.

Beech is about 2 miles west of Alton, in Hampshire. For an event in Beech, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Beech. We cater in 683 places in Hampshire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Beech to Basingstoke (about 9 miles away).

Why choose food truck hire in Beech?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

More for events in Beech
How we price food truck hire
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Distance and access to the venue
- Guest numbers
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The address or venue name
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and time of the event
- What you’d like on the menu
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it’s dark in Beech at around 7:10pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:55pm.
- 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.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Beech: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Peter's?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Which station is closest to Beech?
Alton station, about 2.2 miles east of the centre.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. See our food truck wedding guide.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What do you need at the venue?
A firm, level spot, a way in that fits the vehicle, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
