How our food truck hire works in Mowshurst
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It’s simple, quick and sociable. It works well for leaving parties and garden parties, serving tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and burritos.
In a small place like Mowshurst, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Mowshurst: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Mowshurst for guests?
Guests can use Edenbridge station, about 0.6 miles west of Mowshurst.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Can we hire a bar too?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing with you.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
Guests order at the hatch and their food is handed out hot.
Tell us what serveware you need and we’ll confirm what’s possible.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Distance from houses and windows
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

What happens on the day

- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
