Food truck hire for Monkhams events
Food truck hire in Monkhams, from our food truck or trailer
A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days. For client hospitality and private parties in fields and grounds, we will put together a menu of burritos, tacos from the hatch and loaded nachos for your guests.
For a private or work event in Monkhams, our food truck or trailer parks up and guests order at the hatch. Let us know about the access, any barriers and the width of the way in. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

- A picture of where we’d park
- Diets and allergies you know about

The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. A hired food truck at a summer event in Monkhams can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- 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.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
We keep allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can ask before ordering.
Ask us about evening food later on, quoted with the main booking.
Questions from Monkhams
We are having a ceremony at All Saints' Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Highams Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
How much does food truck hire cost in Monkhams?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What space does the truck need?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we will check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Where the truck can go in Monkhams
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
London streets around Monkhams can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
