How our food truck hire works in Burghfield Bridge
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case. Popular choices include loaded nachos, burrito bowls and tacos from the hatch, and it suits wedding receptions and family reunions.
Somewhere as small as Burghfield Bridge, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. December events in Burghfield Bridge lose the light at about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Let us know the timings for the day

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.

What food truck hire costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The menu you choose
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Common questions in Burghfield Bridge
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Matthew's?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
Is Burghfield Bridge close to London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Can we hire a bar too?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Do you give allergen information?
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 bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
How it compares
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. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
