Food truck hire in Empshott, from our food truck or trailer
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case. It suits private parties in fields and grounds and garden parties, serving vegan tacos, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Empshott, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Tell us what serveware you need and we’ll confirm the options in your quote.

Step by step
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. A hired food truck at a summer event in Empshott can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
