Food truck hire for Danaway events
What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. At midsummer, it stays light in Danaway until about 9:15pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.

Food truck hire for your event in Danaway
The hatch menu is agreed with you: tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas, with fresh salsas and guacamole. For engagement parties and garden parties, we can serve loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch for your guests.
Near Danaway, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
Food truck hire or something else?
Most guests have seen a burger van. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Nachos for sharing at the start.
What we need at the venue
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Enough width and height on the route in
- Distance from houses and windows
