Food truck hire in Horton, served fresh
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, which works well for leaving parties and summer parties at home.
In a rural place like Horton, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
How it compares
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. Our truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Other catering in Horton
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Questions from Horton
Which station is closest to Horton?
Sunnymeads station, about 1 mile west of the centre.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Michael: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned with you in advance, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.

What happens on the day

A hired food truck at a summer event in Horton can serve in daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.

- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
