Food truck hire for your event in Carter's Clay
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. At retirement parties and end-of-year parties, we can serve burritos, vegan tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Near Carter's Clay, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Questions from Carter's Clay
What’s the nearest station to Carter's Clay for guests?
Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, about 1.2 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you cater in villages like Carter's Clay?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
What space does the truck need?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we will check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
Can we add drinks?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We’ll check the licensing with you.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we don’t serve passers-by. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide 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.
