Food truck hire in Crouch, served fresh
We serve when you want us to: a set lunch hour, an evening slot or a few hours through a party. Let us know your running order. For christenings and family parties and end-of-year parties, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch for your guests.
In a small place like Crouch, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Why choose food truck hire in Crouch?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Why book with us
- A clear quote
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- A plan agreed before the day
- Allergen information for every dish

Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Whether you need disposables
- How many guests we’re serving
- The length of service
- Serving staff
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
