Food truck hire in Oakfield, served fresh
Fillings might include carnitas, al pastor-style pork or chicken tinga, alongside a vegan option such as spiced mushroom. There are options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free diets. It works well for milestone birthdays and wedding receptions, with fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
Around Oakfield, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. If the road in is narrow or the ground soft, tell us so we can plan. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Planning for every diet
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Tell us about coeliac guests
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in

At the end of service, we close the hatch and pack down, leaving our spot tidy.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.
What else we do in Oakfield
DIY taco night or 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.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.

Your questions about food truck hire in Oakfield
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater at coastal events near Oakfield?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Popular choices
Loaded nachos
A tray of nachos works as a starter or a late snack.
Quesadillas
A quesadilla suits cautious eaters.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Some space between the truck and nearby homes
- Parking arrangements if we’re not on private land
- Arrangements for power and water, agreed when you book
Oakfield is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll 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’ll advise before booking.

How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Evening events in Oakfield stay light until about 9:20pm at midsummer. After that, festoon lights or lamps near the truck help guests order.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- 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.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
