Food truck hire in Lodsworth, from our food truck or trailer
We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around Lodsworth: gardens, venue grounds, car parks and business parks. For anniversary celebrations and summer parties at home, we will put together a menu of vegan tacos, tacos from the hatch and loaded nachos for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Lodsworth, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Cooking yourself saves on catering but costs you the day. Hire the truck and the cooking is ours. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why us?
- A plan agreed before the day
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Quoted for your event
Working with your venue
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. By late September, it is dark in Lodsworth at around 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Your questions about food truck hire in Lodsworth
How far is Lodsworth from London?
It is about 43 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Lodsworth?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you come to Lodsworth?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Lodsworth is within our area. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Where the truck can go in Lodsworth
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- A clear area for a queue at the hatch
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding where the truck or trailer can park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
