About our food truck hire in Linton
Pair the truck with our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. For engagement parties and summer parties at home, we can serve burrito bowls, burritos and vegan tacos for your guests.
Near Linton, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. You will know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Popular choices

Food truck hire or something else?
Booking several street food trucks means juggling several suppliers. One truck with tacos, burritos and nachos is one booking to manage. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
What you get with us
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Fast service, even with a queue

Your questions about food truck hire in Linton
What’s the nearest station to Linton for guests?
Guests can use East Farleigh station, about 2.8 miles north-west of Linton.
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Linton?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
Our truck or trailer comes to your venue and serves your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
The drinks bar comes with bar staff and alcohol-free choices. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, it’s dark in Linton at around 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

For event organisers in Linton
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
