Hiring a food truck in Hunny Hill

Hunny Hill is about 1 mile north of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whether your event is in the middle of Hunny Hill or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover all 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Portsmouth, about 12 miles away.

Nearby historic houses include Carisbrooke Castle (1.3 miles south-west) and Gatcombe House (2.9 miles south). Listed venues often control where vehicles go, so raise food truck hire at your first visit. With the A3020 and A3054 nearby, getting our truck or trailer to Hunny Hill is straightforward. The coast is within about 4 miles of Hunny Hill, so a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission.

Here we cover the PO30, PO31 and PO41 postcode area. Your event could be at a home on Foxes Road, Chain Lane and Wilver Road or the roads around them. You will find Hunny Hill on the A3020 and A3054, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Other places close to Hunny Hill for food truck hire include Parkhurst (1 mile north), Forest Side (1 mile west), Noke Common (1 mile north), Northwood (3 miles north) and Porchfield (3 miles west). Larger places within reach include Ryde (6 miles east), Cowes (4 miles north), Sandown (7 miles south-east), Shanklin (7 miles south-east), Ventnor (9 miles south-east) and East Cowes (3 miles north). Hunny Hill is among the bigger towns we cover in the Isle of Wight, with lots of choice for events. Remote venues take a little more planning, so contact us in good time about access, ground and power.

Nearby you’ll also find Carisbrooke Castle (1.3 miles south-west) and Isle of Wight Music Museum (within half a mile south-east). Not far away are Mill Hill and Briddlesford Nature Reserve.

  • Local schools include Island Innovation VI Form Campus (0.6 miles south-east) and Carisbrooke College (0.8 miles south-west)

How we price food truck hire

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many guests we’re serving
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • How many staff you need

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. Your quote sets it all out.

What we need to know

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • What power and water the site has
  • How we drive in and where we can park

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you are ready, tell us about it on our contact page.

Where the truck can go in Hunny Hill

Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Distance from houses and windows
  • Parking arrangements if we are not on private land
  • Power and water, confirmed with each booking

Hunny Hill is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Menu ideas

  • Tacos
  • Loaded nachos

DIY taco night versus a caterer

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

For event organisers in Hunny Hill

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, 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.

How it compares

Burger and pizza vans are familiar. Tacos and burritos from a truck feel different while staying easy to eat. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

Why us?

  • Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
  • A menu built around your guests
  • Quoted for your event
  • Allergen-aware menus

See our prices page and the cost guide.

Diets, allergies and planning

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:

  • Add a dietary question to the invitation
  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
  • Share your running order

If your timings move, let us know, and we’ll work around it.

Tell us what serveware you need and we will confirm the options in your quote.

FAQs for Hunny Hill

Could you serve in Seaclose Park?

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.

We’re having a ceremony at The Man in the Moon: 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. Tell us where the reception will be.

How much is a food truck for an event?

We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.

Do you do a taco bar?

We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

What happens if it rains?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Can we hire the truck for our wedding?

Wedding food from a truck feels relaxed and sociable. We agree access and timings with the venue.

Do you give allergen information?

Yes. Tell us 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.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.

About the menu

Salsas and guacamole

Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste, from mild to hot.

Burrito bowls

A bowl is a good choice for guests avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt.

Step by step

When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. At midsummer, it stays light in Hunny Hill until about 9:20pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:10pm. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.

  1. Share your plans for the event.
  2. We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
  3. We check power, water and timings with the venue.
  4. Service runs at the times you choose.
  5. Once service ends, we tidy up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Ask the venue about power and water
