Food truck hire in Emsworth
Food truck hire in Emsworth, served fresh
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. It works well for client events and product launches and summer parties at home, with tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and vegan tacos.
In a smaller place like Emsworth, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
