About our food truck hire in Chartwell Green
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. For family reunions and retirement parties, we’ll put together a menu of tacos from the hatch, burritos and quesadillas for your guests.
Around Chartwell Green, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. Narrow roads and soft ground are fine if we know about them. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- What the venue already provides
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Timings and hours
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- What power and water the site has
- Expected numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you are ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
What we need at the venue
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Seating or standing room near the truck
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What we offer
- Quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar
- Loaded nachos
- Burrito bowls
- Tacos
- Burritos
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
How it compares
Hog roasts are popular with meat eaters, but a Mexican menu covers vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests more easily. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Hiring a food truck in Chartwell Green
Chartwell Green is about 2 miles north-east of Southampton, in Southampton. From the centre of Chartwell Green to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Chartwell Green is one of 40 towns and villages in Southampton where we can bring food truck hire.
Close to Chartwell Green are historic houses such as South Stoneham House (1.3 miles west) and Southampton Tudor House and Garden (3.2 miles south-west). Listed venues often control where vehicles go, so raise food truck hire at your first visit. A food truck in Itchen Valley Country Park would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first. The coast is within about 4 miles of Chartwell Green, so a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots generally need permission.
Anywhere in SO18 and SO30, we can bring food truck hire to you. Local streets include Ivy Lane, Arun Road and Eden Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. If your venue is just outside Chartwell Green, we also cover Townhill Park (1 mile west), West End (1 mile east), Midanbury (1 mile south-west), Mansbridge (1 mile north-west) and Harefield (1 mile south).

Chartwell Green is among the bigger towns we cover in Southampton, with plenty of venues for events.

For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.

FAQs for Chartwell Green
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St James?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater at coastal events near Chartwell Green?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
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.
