Food truck hire in Ewell Minnis, from our truck or trailer
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case. On the menu are burritos, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch, and it suits launch events and engagement parties.
For a rural spot like Ewell Minnis, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
When service ends, we pack away, leaving our spot tidy.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
The process
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Late-September events in Ewell Minnis see sunset at about 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:45pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us a contact for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.

Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.

We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
