Food truck hire in Cowden

For event organisers in Cowden

Organising a club, school or community event in Cowden? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

How our food truck hire works in Cowden

We cook inside our truck or trailer, so your venue does not need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. At retirement parties and wedding evening food, we can serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch for your guests.

In a small place like Cowden, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer.

How the day works

When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. December events in Cowden lose the light at about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
  3. Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
  4. We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
  5. After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Catering for every guest

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Have shelter ready in case of rain
  • Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
  • Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
  • Tell us how many children are coming

We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.

Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we will confirm what’s possible.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

Why choose food truck hire in Cowden?

Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One truck with tacos, burritos and nachos is one booking to manage. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
