How our food truck hire works in Dockenfield
Service is planned around your timings: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. It works well for staff summer parties and back-garden parties, with burrito bowls, vegan tacos and loaded nachos.
Near Dockenfield, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
If your timings move, let us know and we’ll adjust service.
Nachos for sharing at the start.
FAQs for Dockenfield
We’re having a ceremony at The Church Of The Good Shepherd: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What’s the nearest station to Dockenfield for guests?
The closest is Bentley (Hampshire) station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How much is food truck hire?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we’ll quote for your event. Our food truck hire guide explains what affects the cost.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What space does the truck need?
A firm, level spot, a way in that fits the vehicle, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
