Food truck hire or something else?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.
Food truck hire in Bonnington, from our truck or trailer
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It is simple, quick and sociable. Popular choices include loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for parties in venue grounds and christenings and family parties.
In a hamlet or village like Bonnington, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Tell us about coeliac guests
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish, so guests can ask before ordering.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we’ll confirm what’s possible.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Bonnington questions
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Rumwold?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you cover Bonnington?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Bonnington and the rest of Kent. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well, especially in the evening. We agree access and timings with the venue.
Events we cater in Bonnington
You do not need a kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options with the venue’s agreement.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Winter staff parties
- Private parties in fields and grounds
- Launch events
- Retirement parties
Colleagues or friends without a car may like to know that Ham Street station is about 3.6 miles away.
Before booking anyone

- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- What the caterer needs from your venue
- Payment terms and deposit
DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
What happens on the day
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. A hired food truck at a summer event in Bonnington can serve in daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- 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.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
