Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- Travel, parking and access
- The length of service
- Guest numbers
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Your date and when you want service to start

Food truck hire in Caldecote, from our truck or trailer
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It’s simple, quick and sociable. For launch events and winter staff parties, we can serve vegan tacos, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a small place like Caldecote, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

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. A Christmas party in Caldecote with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Questions from Caldecote
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary Magdalene?
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 will check the access.
Which station should guests use for Caldecote?
Milton Keynes Central station, about 3.5 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you cater in Caldecote?
We do. Caldecote is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
