Food truck hire for your event in Oakley
The hatch menu is agreed with you: tacos, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas, with fresh salsas and guacamole. At private parties in fields and grounds and end-of-year parties, we can serve vegan tacos, tacos from the hatch and burrito bowls for your guests.
In and around Oakley, our truck or trailer can work at home, in a field or at a hall. Narrow roads and soft ground are fine if we know about them. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Oakley questions
Which station is closest to Oakley?
The closest is Overton station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John's?
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.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, so we do not serve passers-by. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Can we hire a bar too?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We’ll go through the licensing with you.
How many guests can the truck serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Organising for someone else?
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Count children separately
- Walk the access route and note narrow gaps
- Let us know who is coeliac
- Ask about parking rules if we will be on a road
Allergen information is available at the hatch for every dish.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
The process
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. By late September, it is dark in Oakley at around 7:10pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:55pm.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
Ask for a quote
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, use our quote form.
