Food truck hire for your event in New Milton
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. For end-of-year celebrations and leaving dos and retirements, we can serve burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole and vegan tacos.
In and around New Milton, our food truck or trailer can work at home, in a field or at a hall. Narrow roads and soft ground are fine if we know about them. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
How it compares
For food that becomes part of the event, a private food truck is a strong option in New Milton. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.

Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
The process
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. A Christmas party in New Milton with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:05pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

New Milton questions
Could you come to a seaside event near New Milton?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you cater in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Is the food very hot?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
