About our food truck hire in Freemantle
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so there’s no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos from the hatch and loaded nachos, and it suits launch events and private parties in fields and grounds.
In and around Freemantle, our truck or trailer can work at home, in a field or at a hall. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook are a good way to begin.

Freemantle questions
Which station is closest to Freemantle?
Guests can use Millbrook (Hants) station, which is right in Freemantle.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Blechynden Terrace Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you cater in Freemantle?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Freemantle is within our area and the rest of Southampton. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options.
Can you come to a private house?
That 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’ll advise.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. A hired food truck at a summer event in Freemantle can serve in daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Hiring our taco truck near Freemantle
Freemantle is about 1 mile west of Southampton, in Southampton. Anywhere in SO15, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. We cater in 40 places across Southampton, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Nearby historic houses include Southampton Tudor House and Garden (1.2 miles south-east) and Medieval Merchant's House (1.3 miles south-east). If you’re hiring a historic venue, check early whether it allows a catering vehicle on site. A food truck in Blechynden Terrace Park would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.

The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission.

Streets in the area include May Road, Park Road and Pitt Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.
