Food truck hire for your event in Lower Pennington
We cook inside our truck or trailer, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. We serve tacos from the hatch, burritos and vegan tacos, which works well for end-of-year celebrations and leaving parties.
In a small place like Lower Pennington, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Lower Pennington: parking, access and venues
Lower Pennington is about 1 mile south of Lymington, in Hampshire. From the centre of Lower Pennington to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 14 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of All Saints, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. With the New Forest National Park within about 6 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer. The coast is within about a mile of Lower Pennington, so a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots usually need permission.

Close by, we cover events in Pennington (1 mile north), Lymington (1 mile north), Lymore (1 mile west), Keyhaven (1 mile south-west) and Walhampton (2 miles north-east).

We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
