Food truck hire near Golden Pot
Food truck hire in Golden Pot, from our food truck or trailer
We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around Golden Pot: gardens, venue grounds, car parks and business parks. At leaving parties and private parties in fields and grounds, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, vegan tacos and burritos.
Somewhere as small as Golden Pot, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. A hired food truck at a summer event in Golden Pot can serve in daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us what power and water the site has
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or GU34 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, use our quote form.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell us about coeliac guests
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Agree service times with us
Wet weather doesn’t close the hatch, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck.

For planners, venues and organisers
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Can I do a taco night 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.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
