Food truck hire in Godshill, served fresh
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. On the menu are burritos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, which works well for private outdoor parties and weddings.
In a rural place like Godshill, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
