How our food truck hire works in Denton
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 and we’ll plan around it. It suits winter staff parties and company away days, with quesadillas, vegan tacos and tacos from the hatch.
In a rural place like Denton, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Denton questions
Is it possible to have you in Jumping Downs?
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 will send what they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Denton for guests?
Guests can use Shepherds Well station, about 2.7 miles east of Denton.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
How it compares
If you want guests to remember the food, a private food truck is a strong option in Denton. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
