How our food truck hire works in Lunsford's Cross
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so we plan the menu and service times around you. For end-of-year celebrations and big birthdays, we can serve burritos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole for your guests.
Near Lunsford's Cross, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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, and handles allergen information for you.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A spot away from neighbours
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
