Food truck hire in Cootham, served fresh
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. It suits summer parties at home and staff summer parties, with vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
Somewhere as small as Cootham, 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. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Comparing your options
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Service planned around your numbers
- We cover Cootham and the whole of West Sussex
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A plan agreed before the day
