Food truck hire for Cooksbridge events

About our food truck hire in Cooksbridge

We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around Cooksbridge. For winter staff parties and retirement parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, burritos and vegan tacos and more.

In a rural place like Cooksbridge, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

The process

Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. At midsummer, it stays light in Cooksbridge until about 9:15pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.

  1. Check our availability for your date.
  2. You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
  3. We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
  4. On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
  5. After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.

Getting ready for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Questions from Cooksbridge

We are having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?

Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.

Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Cooksbridge?

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.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.

Do you come to Cooksbridge?

Yes, we do. We serve at events in Cooksbridge and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
