Food truck hire in Kippington, from our food truck or trailer
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It’s simple, quick and sociable for guests and hosts. At family reunions and retirement parties, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, vegan tacos and quesadillas and more.
In a smaller place like Kippington, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
Questions from Kippington
Is it possible to have you in Montreal Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
How much does food truck hire cost in Kippington?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you come to a private house?
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’ll talk it through.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. 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.
Why choose food truck hire in Kippington?
Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and rough timings
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
What happens on the day
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, it stays light in Kippington until about 9:20pm, 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.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Tell us what power and water the site has
