How our food truck hire works in Eastbourne
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission. It suits staff appreciation days and wedding evening food, with fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and burritos.
For food truck hire in central Eastbourne, plan around access and parking; on site we need level ground and space for guests to queue. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer.
