Food truck hire near Meonstoke
Where the truck can go in Meonstoke
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- Parking arrangements if we are not on private land
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
How our food truck hire works in Meonstoke
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. It works well for client hospitality and birthday parties, serving burritos, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch.
Near Meonstoke, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Planning food truck hire around Meonstoke
Meonstoke is about 7 miles north-west of Horndean, in Hampshire. From the centre of Meonstoke to the outskirts, food truck hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Meonstoke is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we can bring food truck hire. You can also see our page for Winchester, about 10 miles away.
Roughly 57 miles separate Meonstoke from central London, which can suit a team day out of the city with a hired food truck. When the service is at a church such as Church of St Andrew, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.
We cover events in every part of the SO32 postcode area. Whether your event is on High Street, Oxendown and Fry's Lane or anywhere nearby, we can bring food truck hire there, given access. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Corhampton (1 mile north), Exton (1 mile north), Brockbridge (1 mile south-west), Droxford (1 mile south-west) and Soberton (2 miles south). We also cater in nearby towns such as Winchester (10 miles north-west), Gosport (12 miles south), Havant (10 miles south-east), Eastleigh (10 miles west), Fareham (9 miles south) and Horndean (7 miles south-east).

Food truck hire or something else?
A hog roast suits meat eaters well, but a Mexican menu covers vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests more easily. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Your questions about food truck hire in Meonstoke
Do you come out to small places like Meonstoke?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can we hire your food truck for a private party in Meonstoke?
Yes, as long as we are available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.
Do you do margaritas?
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.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
What affects the price in Meonstoke
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Parking and the route in

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
