Planning an event in Charndon?
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. December events in Charndon lose the light at about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Give us a contact for the day

Food truck hire in Charndon, served fresh
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. We serve vegan tacos, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, and it is a good fit for milestone birthdays and leaving parties.
Near Charndon, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- How long we are needed on site
- How many guests we are serving
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Distance and access to the venue
There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Expected numbers
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A picture of where we’d park
Send us the date, your venue or OX27 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Count children separately
- Share your running order
- Email us any allergies
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
Running late? Tell us.
Tell us what serveware you need and we’ll confirm what’s possible.
Planning the serving area
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
Charndon: your questions answered
Do you cater in villages like Charndon?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Michael?
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.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Charndon.
How much is food truck hire?
We do not publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we will quote for your event. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Comparing your options
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
