Food truck hire near Cooper's Green
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. By late September, it is dark in Cooper's Green at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- The menu you choose
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Guest numbers
- The length of service
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Agree service times with us
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we have arranged. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook are a good way to begin.
Cooper's Green questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Will you travel to a small place like Cooper's Green?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Cooper's Green.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What does food truck hire cost?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Room for guests to gather at the hatch
- Enough width and height on the route in
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
