Food truck hire in Otham
How we price food truck hire
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- What the venue already provides
- The length of service
- How many guests we are serving
- What’s on the menu

- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send a quick message through our quote form.

Which station should guests use for Otham?
Guests can use Bearsted station, about 2.1 miles north of Otham.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
How much does food truck hire cost in Otham?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.

At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, on a menu and timings agreed with you. At festivals and markets we trade to the public.

Do you give allergen information?
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 cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
