Food truck hire for Capel events
Food truck hire in Capel, served fresh
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so your venue does not need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. For company away days and winter staff parties, we can serve loaded nachos, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Capel, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Capel: your questions answered
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you cater in villages like Capel?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable. We agree access and timings with the venue.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Capel.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. It is a private booking for your guests only.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking.
The process
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Late-September events in Capel see sunset at about 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
