Food truck hire for Chalvey events
Food truck hire in Chalvey, from our food truck or trailer
The hatch menu is agreed with you: tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas, with fresh salsas and guacamole. At staff summer parties and family celebrations, we can serve burritos, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole and more.
In a smaller place like Chalvey, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Planning the serving area
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Comparing your options
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What you get with us
- Service planned around your numbers
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests

How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. By late September, it’s dark in Chalvey at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:55pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Before we arrive
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Tell us when you want service to start

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat

Popular choices

Nachos are good for sharing between friends.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Chalvey: your questions answered
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Herschel Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Where can the truck park?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
