Food truck hire for your event in Marley
Pair the truck with our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. At back-garden parties and client events and product launches, we can serve burrito bowls, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
For a rural spot like Marley, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Count children separately
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
If your timings move, let us know, and we will work around it.
Simple quesadillas suit younger guests, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Marley: your questions answered
We are having a ceremony at St John the Baptist's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater in villages like Marley?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can we add drinks?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Licensing is checked with you.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
