How our food truck hire works in Langstone
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. For parties in venue grounds and wedding evening food, we can serve vegan tacos, quesadillas and burritos and more.
For a rural spot like Langstone, 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
About the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste, from mild to hot.
Quesadillas
Crisp tortillas folded round melted cheese.

- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. A Christmas party in Langstone with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- We suggest a menu for the hatch and quote for it.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us a contact for the day

Planning food truck hire around Langstone
Langstone is about 2 miles south of Havant, in Hampshire. Give us the address of your event in Langstone, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. We serve in all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Rail travellers will be glad to hear that the nearest station is Havant station, about 1.1 miles north. When the service is at a church such as Saint Nicholas' Chapel, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. With the sea within about 5 miles, 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 generally need permission.
Wherever your event is in PO9 and PO11, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Whether your event is on Mill Lane, Langstone Road and Langstone High Street or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. Langstone sits on or near the A3023, which makes travel to your event easy. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Warblington (1 mile east), Northney (1 mile south-east), Denvilles (1 mile north-east), Stoke (1 mile south) and North Hayling (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in Gosport (8 miles west), Fareham (9 miles west), Horndean (5 miles north), Hedge End (15 miles west), Waterlooville (4 miles north-west) and Petersfield (12 miles north).
A little further out are Warblington Castle (0.8 miles north-east) and Havant Museum (0.8 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Southmoor Nature Reserve.
- Local schools include Warblington School (1.1 miles north-east)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Royal Oak pub (within half a mile east)
For event organisers in Langstone
Organising a club, school or community event in Langstone? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
- Agree service times with us
- Tell us about coeliac guests
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down, leaving our spot tidy.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.
How it compares
Most guests have seen a burger van. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What we offer in Langstone
- Access, space and power checked in advance

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
