Food truck hire for your event in Hothfield
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, so tell us how many you expect. It suits client hospitality and back-garden parties, serving tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole.
For a rural spot like Hothfield, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Comparing your options
A hog roast suits meat eaters well, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Questions from Hothfield
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Hothfield?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Do you do food truck hire for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. See our food truck wedding guide.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Why choose food truck hire in Hothfield?
Every order is cooked and served hot, rather than waiting under foil.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:

How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. December events in Hothfield lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Find out what power and water are available
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
Ask for a quote
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Enough width and height on the route in
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What we offer
- Loaded nachos
- Quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar
- Burrito bowls
- Burritos
- Tacos
About the menu
