Events we cater in Earnley
Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, which opens up gardens, fields and car parks with the venue’s agreement.
Whatever the occasion, our food truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We can cater:
- Wedding evening food
- Parties in venue grounds
- Christenings and family parties
- Retirement parties
When the service is at a church such as Earnley Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

Food truck hire in Earnley: local tips
Earnley is about 3 miles north-west of Selsey, in West Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Earnley, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. Earnley is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we can bring food truck hire. We cater right across the region, from Earnley to Chichester (about 6 miles away).
Roughly 60 miles separate Earnley from central London, which can suit a team day out of the city with a hired food truck. With the sea within about 4 miles, a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission.
We serve at events all over the PO20 postcode area. Local streets include Earnley Manor Close, Bookers Lane and Drove Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Other places close to Earnley for food truck hire include East Wittering (1 mile west), Almodington (1 mile north-east), Somerley (1 mile north), Shipton Green (2 miles north) and Birdham (2 miles north). We also cater in nearby towns such as Bognor Regis (7 miles east), Chichester (6 miles north-east), Selsey (3 miles south-east), Littlehampton (14 miles east), Emsworth (7 miles north-west) and Rustington (15 miles east).
Nearby you will also find Selsey Lifeboat Museum (3.9 miles south-east). Not far away are Pilsey Island.
Where the truck can go in Earnley
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations

- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Earnley
Do you cater in villages like Earnley?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Earnley Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can we hire a bar too?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. We’ll talk through licensing first.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
