Food truck hire in Minster, served fresh
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed. For client hospitality and birthday parties, we can serve quesadillas, burritos and tacos from the hatch.
For a rural spot like Minster, food truck hire needs a little planning: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
For event organisers in Minster
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A Christmas party in Minster with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Ask the venue about power and water

How it compares
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At public events, anyone can buy; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
