Food truck hire in Hammer, served fresh
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos from the hatch and vegan tacos, and it suits christenings and family parties and wedding receptions.
In a hamlet or village like Hammer, our food 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. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Share your running order
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Tell us about coeliac guests
Running late? Tell us and we will adjust service.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
What happens on the day
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. A Christmas party in Hammer with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Getting ready for the day

For planners, venues and organisers
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
