Food truck hire in Goudhurst, served fresh
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. On the menu are burritos, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos, which works well for client events and product launches and engagement parties.
For a rural spot like Goudhurst, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Food truck hire in Goudhurst: local tips
Goudhurst is about 8 miles east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Goudhurst or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Goudhurst is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Goudhurst to Royal Tunbridge Wells (8 miles away).
Roughly 36 miles separate Goudhurst from central London, close enough for a London team’s away day. Rail travellers will be glad to hear that Marden station is about 4.5 miles away. With the High Weald National Landscape within about 4 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer.

Goudhurst: your questions answered
Is it possible to have you in The Gill?
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’ll send what they need from us.
Is Goudhurst close to London?
About 36 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
A food truck suits a relaxed wedding well. We agree access and timings with the venue.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
We quote for every hire, based on guest numbers, the menu, the location and service times. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
How it compares
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why book with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Allergen-aware menus
- A menu agreed with you
- Fast service, even with a queue
Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.
The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evening events in Goudhurst stay light until about 9:15pm at midsummer. Once it is dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
For event organisers in Goudhurst
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
