Your questions about food truck hire in Northiam
How far is Northiam from London?
It is about 46 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
There is no fixed price list, as every booking is different. Tell us your plans and we’ll quote for your event. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
