How our food truck hire works in Noke Common
Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. It suits retirement parties and summer parties at home, serving vegan tacos, quesadillas and tacos from the hatch.
Somewhere as small as Noke Common, food truck hire can mean a garden, a field or a barn. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

What affects the price in Noke Common
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Serving staff
- Travel, parking and access
- The length of service
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, use our quote form.
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evening events in Noke Common stay light until about 9:20pm at midsummer. Once it’s dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Tell us when you want service to start

Why choose food truck hire in Noke Common?
Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options.
Here are some of the events we cater around Noke Common:
- Staff appreciation days
- Family celebrations
- Weddings
- End-of-year celebrations
When the service is at a church such as Church of St. John the Baptist, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.
Before booking anyone
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- If the price includes VAT
- The deposit and payment dates
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Catering for every guest
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To get it right:
- Count children separately
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
When service ends, we pack away and drive off quietly.
Quesadillas make an easy option for children, if you’d like a kids’ choice.
Noke Common questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St. John the Baptist: 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. Send us the reception address.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Seaclose Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
What space does the truck need?
Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we will check the access. Our guide to space and power has more.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
There is no fixed price list, as every booking is different. Send your details and you will get a quote. Our food truck hire guide explains what affects the cost.
Do you cover Noke Common?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Noke Common is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
How much does food truck hire cost in Noke Common?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
- Somewhere for guests to sit or stand and eat
Noke Common is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
