How our food truck hire works in Moortown
Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. It suits winter staff parties and wedding receptions, serving vegan tacos, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
Near Moortown, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Occasions we cater for in Moortown
Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options with the venue’s agreement.

- Parties in venue grounds
Historic houses near Moortown include Mottistone Manor (1.3 miles west) and Westcourt Manor (1.6 miles east). Listed venues often control where vehicles go, so raise food truck hire at your first visit.
Comparing caterers
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
- Space, access, power and water needs
- How long the service runs
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Planning the serving area
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
- Level, solid ground for the vehicle
Out-of-the-way places like Moortown take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Moortown
Can you cater a reception after a service at St. Mary's Church?
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. Send us the reception address.
Will you travel to a small place like Moortown?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How much does food truck hire cost?
Each hire is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Can you plan for allergies?
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.

Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Your menu ideas
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Expected numbers
- Diets and allergies you know about
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, use our quote form.
Comparing your options
A hog roast suits meat eaters well, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. There’s 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.
Why book with us
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Service planned around your numbers
- Allergen information for everything we serve
