Food truck hire in Hextable, from our food truck or trailer
We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around Hextable. On the menu are loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for milestone birthdays and parties in venue grounds.
In and around Hextable, our food truck or trailer can work at home, in a field or at a hall. Narrow roads and soft ground are fine if we know about them. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Your questions about food truck hire in Hextable
Is it possible to have you in Dartford Heath?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Peter?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.

Working with your venue

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Can I do a taco night myself?
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.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

The price comes down to a few factors:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many staff you need

What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A Christmas party in Hextable with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
