Food truck hire in Compton, from our food truck or trailer

Service is planned around your timings: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. It works well for family reunions and private parties in fields and grounds, with tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and burrito bowls.

Somewhere as small as Compton, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

  • A spot away from neighbours
  • Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
  • Seating or standing room near the truck

Prices and what affects them

Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • What’s on the menu
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • What the venue already provides

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Getting an accurate quote

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • A picture of where we’d park
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Where the event is
  • Your date and when you want service to start

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. For a quote, use our quote form.

About the menu

Loaded nachos

Crisp chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, for sharing.

Burrito bowls

Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.

Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:

  • Let us know who is coeliac
  • Think about cover if the weather turns
  • Add a dietary question to the invitation
  • Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles

The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.

Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Planning a private evening event in Compton? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. Once it is dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.

  1. Share your plans for the event.
  2. Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
  3. We check power, water and timings with the venue.
  4. Service runs at the times you choose.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Is food truck hire right for your event?

A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
