Food truck hire in Farthing Green, from our food truck or trailer
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission. It suits christenings and family parties and retirement parties, with fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
In a hamlet or village like Farthing Green, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Your questions about food truck hire in Farthing Green
Which station should guests use for Farthing Green?
Staplehurst station, about 2.1 miles south-west of the centre.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Farthing Green?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
When you hire us, the booking is yours, and we do not sell to the public. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
What space does the truck need?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we’ll check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. A Christmas party in Farthing Green with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
