How our food truck hire works in Harrietsham
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed. On the menu are burrito bowls, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for weddings and private parties in fields and grounds.
For a place the size of Harrietsham, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue hire, and guests order at the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. 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.

FAQs for Harrietsham
What’s the nearest station to Harrietsham for guests?
Harrietsham has its own station: Harrietsham station.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Kiln Wood?
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.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Can we add drinks?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
