About our food truck hire in Lenham Heath
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It is simple, quick and sociable. At milestone birthdays and family reunions, we’ll put together a menu of quesadillas, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a small place like Lenham Heath, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Planning for every diet

- Check parking and loading rules for street locations
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
We can serve through rain, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. A hired food truck at a summer event in Lenham Heath can serve in daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- 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.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Ask the venue about power and water

Your questions about food truck hire in Lenham Heath
We are having a ceremony at Church of the Holy Trinity: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues 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.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we do not serve passers-by. Organisers wanting us to trade at their event can see our festival page.
Where can the truck park?
A firm, level spot, a way in that fits the vehicle, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Why choose food truck hire in Lenham Heath?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At public events, anyone can buy; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
