FAQs for Lower Upham
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Lower Upham?
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.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
How does food truck hire work?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. It’s a private booking for your guests only.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What does food truck hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Is food truck hire good for weddings?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue. See our food truck wedding guide.
Food truck hire in Lower Upham, from our truck or trailer
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. We serve burrito bowls, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for engagements and anniversaries and retirement parties.
Somewhere as small as Lower Upham, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Evening events in Lower Upham stay light until about 9:25pm at midsummer. Once it’s dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- We arrive, open the hatch and cook to order for your guests.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
