Food truck hire in Lynsted, served fresh
You choose the hatch menu with us: tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas, finished with salsas and guacamole. On the menu are loaded nachos, burritos and tacos from the hatch, which works well for company away days and weddings.
Somewhere as small as Lynsted, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Send allergy details in writing
At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down and drive off quietly.
Loaded nachos to share while the first orders cook.
What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. December events in Lynsted lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Find out what power and water are available
Ask for a quote
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

Food truck hire or something else?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
What we offer in Lynsted
- Quoted for your event
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

Guests can use Teynham station, about 1.6 miles north-east of Lynsted.
How far is Lynsted from London?
About 40 miles from central London.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
It depends on the event and how long service runs. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.
Can we hire a bar too?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. We’ll talk through licensing first.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you cover Lynsted?
Yes, we do. Lynsted is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
