Your questions about food truck hire in Birling
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Leybourne Lakes Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How does food truck hire work?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook, serve and clear away.
What space does the truck need?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we’ll check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. 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 clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Food truck hire for your event in Birling
Our food truck or trailer is available to hire for events across Birling and nearby: gardens, venue grounds, car parks and business parks. It suits private parties in fields and grounds and client events and product launches, with tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
Near Birling, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Why choose food truck hire in Birling?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

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.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
If your timings move, let us know, and we will work around it.

Planning food truck hire around Birling
Birling is about 6 miles south-west of Chatham, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Birling or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We cover 922 places in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Birling to Maidstone (about 6 miles away).
From central London, Birling is about 25 miles away, close enough for a London team’s away day. When the service is at a church such as Church of All Saints, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

If your venue is just outside Birling, we also cover Paddlesworth (1 mile north), Leybourne (1 mile south-east), Lunsford (1 mile east), Snodland (2 miles north-east) and Larkfield (2 miles south-east).

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. A Christmas party in Birling 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 9:20pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
