Food truck hire in Milton, served fresh
Fillings might include carnitas, al pastor-style pork or chicken tinga, with vegan choices like black bean and sweet potato. There are options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free diets. Popular choices include tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and burritos, which works well for leaving parties and wedding evening food.

Milton: your questions answered
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Milton?
Yes, as long as we’re available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Will you travel to a small place like Milton?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Where can the truck park?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water when you book.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook, serve and clear away.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with 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.
How it compares
Cooking yourself saves on catering but costs you the day. Hire the truck and the cooking is ours so you can join in. There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
