Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

When service ends, we pack away, leaving our spot tidy.

The process
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. A hired food truck at a summer event in Laddingford can serve in daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Let us know the timings for the day
