Food truck hire in New Barn, from our truck or trailer
Service is planned around your timings: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. Popular choices include vegan tacos, tacos from the hatch and burrito bowls, which works well for staff appreciation days and engagements and anniversaries.
Around New Barn, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Most guests have seen a burger van. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. We fit service around your running order. Read more in having a food truck at a wedding.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

What else we do in New Barn
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
