Food truck hire for Cottonworth events
How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evening events in Cottonworth stay light until about 9:25pm at midsummer. After that, festoon lights or lamps near the truck help guests order.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Find out what power and water are available

Food truck hire in Cottonworth, served fresh
Food truck hire suits weddings, milestone birthdays and staff events. For big birthdays and family celebrations, we can serve burrito bowls, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole for your guests.
For a rural spot like Cottonworth, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Questions from Cottonworth
Which station should guests use for Cottonworth?
Guests can use Andover station, about 4.1 miles north of Cottonworth.
Is it possible to have you in Longstock Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Why choose food truck hire in Cottonworth?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Agree service times with us
- Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
We can serve through rain, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
Ask about a second service later in the evening, quoted with the main booking.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and rough timings
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- The venue or postcode
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Room for guests to gather at the hatch
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
