Food truck hire for Bluetown events
Food truck hire for your event in Bluetown
A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and tacos from the hatch, and it suits client hospitality and company away days.
For a rural spot like Bluetown, 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 arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Email us any allergies
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Ask about a second service later in the evening, quoted with the main booking.
Your questions about food truck hire in Bluetown
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Bluetown?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Will you travel to a small place like Bluetown?
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.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
How does food truck hire work?
Our truck or trailer comes to your venue and serves your guests from the hatch. It’s a private booking for your guests only.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. We fit service around your running order. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
You can add our drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Hiring our taco truck near Bluetown
Bluetown is about 4 miles south of Sittingbourne, in Kent. For food truck hire in Bluetown, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. We cater in all 922 towns and villages in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Maidstone, about 10 miles away.
After a service at a church such as Church of St Catherine, a hired food truck at a garden, field or venue nearby can feed everyone. Parks such as Cromers Wood normally need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often simpler. Bluetown is within about 5 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, with country venues and gardens where a hired food truck could serve. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules on vehicles, so check with yours.
Wherever your event is in ME9, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. We also serve at events in Hollybushes (1 mile west), Milstead (1 mile north-west), Doddington (1 mile south-east), Wichling (1 mile south) and Frinsted (2 miles west).

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

How it works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. At midsummer, it stays light in Bluetown until about 9:15pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
