How our food truck hire works in Grayswood
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 the menu and timings are set around your event. At private outdoor parties and wedding evening food, we can serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Grayswood, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
Quesadillas
Crisp tortillas folded round melted cheese.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are good for sharing between friends.
Step by step
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. A hired food truck at a summer event in Grayswood can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
Wet weather doesn’t close the hatch, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck.
FAQs for Grayswood
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Grayswood?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
We’re having a ceremony at All Saints' Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan for diets before the day, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
