Questions from Hawley
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Darenth Country Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
What’s the nearest station to Hawley for guests?
Farningham Road station, about 1.5 miles south of the centre.
Can we hire a bar too?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will check the licensing with you.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Hiring the truck or trailer normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
Food truck hire or something else?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

How we price food truck hire
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Distance and access to the venue
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Your menu ideas
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
