Food truck hire in Burford, from our food truck or trailer
You choose the hatch menu with us: tacos and burritos, with bowls, nachos or quesadillas if you like, finished with salsas and guacamole. It works well for leaving dos and retirements and family reunions, with burritos, burrito bowls and tacos from the hatch.
Around Burford, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Agree service times with us
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
The hatch opens at the time you choose.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests.
Burford: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Burford for guests?
Shipton station, about 4.5 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable. We will check access and timings with your venue.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
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.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
What food truck hire costs
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Serving staff
- How many guests we’re serving
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
- Your menu ideas
Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. There is 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.
