Food truck hire for your event in Lingfield
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. It works well for big birthdays and staff summer parties, serving tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls.
For a place the size of Lingfield, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Tell us about the lane and the drive. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A hired food truck at a summer event in Lingfield can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it is 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.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.

FAQs for Lingfield
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater in the High Weald 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.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How much is a food truck for an event?

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
Guests come to the hatch, order and wait a short moment for hot food.
Tell us what serveware you need and we will confirm what’s possible.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on 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.
Why book with us
- A plan agreed before the day
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- A quote that sets out what’s included
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Who books food truck hire in Lingfield?
It feels informal but well looked after, because we cook, serve and clear away.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. People in Lingfield can book us for occasions like:
- Back-garden parties
