About our food truck hire in Fairlight Cove
As a guide, hiring the truck or trailer suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case. It works well for family reunions and retirement parties, with burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and tacos from the hatch.
In a rural place like Fairlight Cove, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: 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 plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Working with your venue
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

What else we do in Fairlight Cove
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Send allergy details in writing
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
Wet weather does not close the hatch, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck.
Space, access and the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
About the menu
Tacos from the hatch
Tacos made to order at the hatch, with a choice of fillings agreed with you.
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, for sharing.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Planning food truck hire around Fairlight Cove
Fairlight Cove is about 4 miles east of Hastings, in East Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Fairlight Cove, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. Fairlight Cove is one of 289 places in East Sussex we cover. We cater right across the region, from Fairlight Cove to Royal Tunbridge Wells (25 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as St Peter, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. If guests are travelling by rail, the nearest station is Three Oaks station, about 2.9 miles north-west. With the coast within about 4 miles of Fairlight Cove, wind is worth planning for. A sheltered, firm spot for the truck or trailer and the queue works best.
We cater events across the TN35 postcode area and the streets around it. We can cater an event on streets such as Market Garden, Smugglers Way and Stock Dale or the roads around them. Other places close to Fairlight Cove for food truck hire include Fairlight (1 mile west), Pett (1 mile north), Friar's Hill (1 mile north-west), Guestling Green (2 miles north-west) and Guestling (2 miles north-west).

How it compares
Hog roasts are popular with meat eaters, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
