Food truck hire for Crosspost events
Food truck hire in Crosspost, from our food truck or trailer
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case. For client hospitality and private outdoor parties, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch for your guests.
For a rural spot like Crosspost, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Is Crosspost close to London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
What space does the truck need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A hired food truck at a summer event in Crosspost can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
