Food truck hire in East Hampnett, from our food truck or trailer
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. It suits engagements and anniversaries and end-of-year celebrations, with burrito bowls, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
In a small place like East Hampnett, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
How we price food truck hire
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Timings and hours
- What the venue already provides
- How many guests we’re serving
- What’s on the menu
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Flag any coeliac guests

Questions from East Hampnett
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you cater at coastal events near East Hampnett?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Do you come to East Hampnett?

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
We plan for diets before the day, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
