Food truck hire near Northam
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:
- Put anyone with a severe allergy in touch with us
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
- Share your running order
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
Guests come to the hatch, order and wait a short moment for hot food.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
Food truck hire for your event in Northam
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. For client events and product launches and staff appreciation days, we will put together a menu of tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and quesadillas for your guests.
For a private or work event near Northam, our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen; we just need level ground, access and the venue’s permission. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a food truck
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Room for guests to gather at the hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
Food truck hire in Northam: local tips
Northam is about 1 mile south-east of Southampton, in Southampton. For food truck hire in Northam, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. Northam is one of 40 places in Southampton we cover.
Guests leaving a church like Church of St Augustine could walk or drive to a nearby garden or hall where the truck is ready. Central London is about 69 miles from Northam, which can suit a team day out of the city with a hired food truck. With the New Forest National Park within about 8 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer. With the coast within about 2 miles of Northam, wind is worth planning for. A sheltered, firm spot for the truck or trailer and the queue works best.
For food truck hire in SO14, SO19 and SO18, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings.

Common questions in Northam
Do you come to events in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Augustine: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Can we hire a bar too?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Licensing is checked with you.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
The menu, item by item
Quesadillas
Crisp tortillas folded round melted cheese.
Loaded nachos
Tortilla chips with cheese, a filling, salsa and guacamole.
