How our food truck hire works in Liss
Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it is a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. It works well for engagement parties and weddings, with burritos, quesadillas and vegan tacos.
Hire our food truck for an event near Liss and the kitchen comes with it; we just need level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Share your running order
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
Running late? Tell us.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A Christmas party in Liss with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and 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.
How to prepare
- Find out what power and water are available

Food truck hire or something else?

When the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. From central London, Liss is about 47 miles away, close enough for a London team’s away day. Liss is within about 4 miles of the South Downs National Park, with country venues and gardens where a hired food truck could serve. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules on vehicles, so check with yours.
For food truck hire in GU33, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Station Road, Shotterfield Terrace and Greenfields.

Common questions in Liss
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
We quote for every hire, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
What affects the price in Liss
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
