About our food truck hire in Old Romney
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It is simple, quick and sociable for guests and hosts. It suits anniversary celebrations and christenings and family parties, with burrito bowls, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
For a rural spot like Old Romney, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Why choose food truck hire in Old Romney?

Working with your venue
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.

Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Email us any allergies
- Agree service times with us
- Flag any coeliac guests
- 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.
Add a build-your-own taco bar beside the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.

Questions from Old Romney
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Clement?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Old Romney?
Yes, as long as we’re available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
What about vegan and gluten-free guests?
We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Space in front of the hatch for guests to queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring in a catering vehicle
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
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. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. By late September, it’s dark in Old Romney at around 7:00pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:45pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Give us your final numbers and diets
