The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Evening events in Childrey stay light until about 9:25pm at midsummer. Once it’s dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

What food truck hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we are needed on site
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of where we’d park
- The date and rough timings
- What you’d like on the menu
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.
Questions from Childrey
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: 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.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Childrey?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
How does private food truck hire work?
Our truck or trailer comes to your venue and serves your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
What does food truck hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. We will talk through licensing first.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Why choose food truck hire in Childrey?
For food that becomes part of the event, hiring a Mexican food truck is worth considering. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
