Food truck hire in Hammerpot
FAQs for Hammerpot
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Margaret?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you come out to small places like Hammerpot?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you come to Hammerpot?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Hammerpot and across West Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Contact us for a quote.
Food truck hire in Hammerpot, served fresh
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed. Popular choices include burritos, loaded nachos and vegan tacos, and it suits winter staff parties and birthday parties.
Somewhere as small as Hammerpot, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Ask about parking rules if we’ll be on a road
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
We drive in at the agreed time and park in the planned spot. Someone on site to meet us makes it smoother.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children.
