Food truck hire for your event in Chart Sutton
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case, so tell us how many you expect. At staff summer parties and client events and product launches, we can serve tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos and more.
In a rural place like Chart Sutton, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Questions from Chart Sutton
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Michael?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far is Chart Sutton from central London?
It is about 34 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar and alcohol-free choices. We’ll talk through licensing first.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.

What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Late-September events in Chart Sutton see sunset at about 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches

What affects the price in Chart Sutton
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Travel, parking and access
- Staff for serving and the bar
- The menu you choose
- How many guests we’re serving
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- What you’d like on the menu
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote.
Comparing your options
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What you get with us
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Quoted for your event
- Allergen information for everything we serve

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Give us separate numbers for children
When service ends, we pack away.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
What’s on the menu
Burrito bowls
Everything from a burrito, served in a bowl.
Tacos from the hatch
Tacos are quick to serve and easy to eat standing up.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
