Food truck hire in Folkington
Food truck hire for your event in Folkington
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed per booking. For wedding receptions and client hospitality, we can serve burritos, quesadillas and vegan tacos.
Near Folkington, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. A Christmas party in Folkington with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day

Burritos suit hungry guests.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
