How our food truck hire works in Drellingore
We serve when you want us to: a set lunch hour, an evening slot or a few hours through a party. Tell us when guests should eat and we will plan around it. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos from the hatch and burritos, and it suits end-of-year parties and leaving parties.
In a rural place like Drellingore, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Common questions in Drellingore
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Michael?

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
What space does the truck need?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check it works. There is more in our space and power guide.
How much does food truck hire cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as every booking is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To get it right:
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Share your running order
We can serve through rain, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
