Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we will confirm the options in your quote.
Food truck hire in Burghfield, served fresh
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. It suits leaving dos and retirements and wedding evening food, serving quesadillas, tacos from the hatch and vegan tacos.
In a rural place like Burghfield, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

What food truck hire costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many guests we are serving
- How long we’re needed on site

A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Common questions in Burghfield
How far is Burghfield from central London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
