How our food truck hire works in Biddenden
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue does not need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. On the menu are quesadillas, vegan tacos and tacos from the hatch, and it is a good fit for company away days and engagements and anniversaries.
For a rural spot like Biddenden, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
For planners, venues and organisers
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
About the menu
Loaded nachos
Nachos are good for sharing between friends; dairy-free versions can be planned.
Quesadillas
A quesadilla suits cautious eaters.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
Hiring our taco truck near Biddenden
Biddenden is about 10 miles west of Ashford, in Kent. Across the TN27 area, we’ll come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. We serve in all 922 towns and villages in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Maidstone, about 11 miles away.
For guests coming by train, Headcorn station is about 3.5 miles away. When the service is at a church such as Parish Church of All Saints, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. With the High Weald National Landscape within about 5 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer.
We cater events across the TN27 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include High Street, The Meadows and Cloth Hall Gardens, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A Christmas party in Biddenden with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
- Check gate widths and any height limits
When service ends, we pack away.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
How we price food truck hire
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- What the venue already provides
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Parking and the route in
- The length of service
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:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
What we need at the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
Questions from Biddenden
Could you serve our guests after a service at Parish Church of All Saints?
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 will check the access.
Do you cater in villages like Biddenden?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How many guests can the truck serve?
That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
What does food truck hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
