Food truck hire for Northney events
Planning food truck hire around Northney
Northney is about 3 miles south-east of Havant, in Hampshire. Across the PO11 area, we can serve your guests. Northney is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover.
A food truck in Eames Farm would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first. From central London, Northney is about 60 miles away, close enough for a London team’s away day. The coast is within about 4 miles of Northney, so a hired food truck at a seaside venue is an option. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission.
We cover events in every part of PO11. Whether your event is on Northney Lane, Spinnaker Grange and Northney Road or a nearby road, we’ll plan where to park and serve. We also serve at events in North Hayling (1 mile south), Warblington (1 mile north), Tye (1 mile south), Stoke (1 mile south-west) and Langstone (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also cater in Gosport (8 miles west), Havant (3 miles north-west), Fareham (10 miles west), Horndean (6 miles north), Waterlooville (5 miles north-west) and Petersfield (12 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include Havant Museum (1.7 miles north-west) and Havant War Memorial Hospital (2.1 miles north-west). The countryside around Northney includes Hayling Billy.
- Pubs nearby include The Ship Inn (1 mile north-west)
About our food truck hire in Northney
When you hire our food truck, it serves your guests and nobody else. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. For birthday parties and staff appreciation days, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, vegan tacos and loaded nachos.
In a rural place like Northney, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Other catering in Northney
For event organisers in Northney
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A hired food truck at a summer event in Northney can serve in daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Northney: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Northney?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you come to a seaside event near Northney?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

How we price food truck hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- The menu you choose
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Timings and hours
- Staff for serving and the bar
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and price, we need:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What power and water the site has
- Your menu ideas
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Power and water details confirmed in advance
- Distance from houses and windows
- Room for guests to gather at the hatch
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
DIY taco night versus 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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
