Food truck hire for Lumley events
Food truck hire in Lumley, served fresh
We serve when you want us to: a set lunch hour, an evening slot or a few hours through a party. Tell us when guests should eat and we’ll plan around it. On the menu are burritos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it suits client events and product launches and engagement parties.
For a rural spot like Lumley, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Should I do it myself?
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.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

What else we do in Lumley
Why choose food truck hire in Lumley?
Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Why us?
- Allergen information for every dish
- A clear quote
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Fast service, even with a queue
Lumley: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St James?
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. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater at coastal events near Lumley?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

Organising for someone else?
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Planning for every diet
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To get it right:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests, if you’d like a kids’ choice.

How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. A Christmas party in Lumley 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. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- 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
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
