Food truck hire near Easton
FAQs for Easton
Could you come to a seaside event near Easton?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St. Agnes' Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What does food truck hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Food truck hire in Easton, from our food truck or trailer
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue does not need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. For winter staff parties and company away days, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, tacos from the hatch and vegan tacos and more.
In a rural place like Easton, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Hiring a food truck in Easton
Easton is about 6 miles south of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. For an event in Easton, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. Easton is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we can bring food truck hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Easton to Southampton (18 miles away).
No room on the drive? A hired hall or sports club near Easton with parking may suit the truck or trailer. When the service is at a church such as St. Agnes' Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. A private event by the sea is within reach, as Easton is within about a mile of the coast. Promenades and beaches usually need the council’s agreement for a catering vehicle.
Food truck hire in PO40 is planned around your venue and access and your guests. Local streets include Bay Road, Camp Road and Gate Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. If your venue is just outside Easton, we also cover Afton (1 mile east), Afton Park (1 mile east), Freshwater (1 mile north-west), Totland (1 mile west) and Colwell (1 mile north-west). We also cater in nearby towns such as Newport (10 miles east), Cowes (11 miles north-east), Shanklin (15 miles east), Ventnor (14 miles east), East Cowes (12 miles north-east) and Barton (10 miles east). Remote venues take a little more planning, so ask early about your event.
Other landmarks nearby include Yarmouth Castle (2.3 miles north) and Dimbola Museum And Galleries (less than half a mile south). Not far away are Afton Down and Lymington and Keyhaven Marshes Nature Reserve.
- Pubs nearby include The Red Lion pub (0.7 miles north)
- Other local spots include Medina (1.2 miles north-west)
Why choose food truck hire in Easton?
Every order is cooked and served hot, rather than waiting under foil.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Family reunions
- Wedding evening food
- Leaving dos and retirements
- Anniversary celebrations
Around Easton, historic houses include Mottistone Manor (4.2 miles east). Historic houses and estates typically have firm rules on vehicles, so ask where a hired food truck could park before you book.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
What you get with us
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Fast service, even with a queue
- We cover Easton and the whole of the Isle of Wight
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
For somewhere as remote as Easton, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
