Your questions about food truck hire in Greatham
How far is Greatham from central London?
About 45 miles from central London.
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
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 do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Where can the truck park?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water when you book.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.
Food truck hire in Greatham, from our food truck or trailer
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It is a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. Popular choices include tacos from the hatch, vegan tacos and loaded nachos, which works well for company away days and winter staff parties.
In a hamlet or village like Greatham, 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. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
About the menu
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips loaded with toppings, salsa and guacamole, for sharing.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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’ll do the serving.
Why choose food truck hire in Greatham?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
