Food truck hire for Overton events
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Booking several street food trucks means juggling several suppliers. One Mexican truck with a varied menu keeps things simple. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Food truck hire for your event in Overton
Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It is a private booking, not public trading, so the menu and timings are set around your event. It works well for christenings and family parties and leaving dos and retirements, with tacos from the hatch, fresh salsas and guacamole and loaded nachos.
In a smaller place like Overton, hiring our food truck for a party at home is often the easiest option: no venue hire, and guests order at the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
Overton questions
How far is Overton from central London?
It is about 53 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
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’ll check the access.
What does hiring your food truck involve?
You hire the truck or trailer for agreed service times. We cook, serve and clear away.
How much is food truck hire?
Each hire is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. At festivals and markets we trade to the public.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, Hampshire included. See all areas.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Agree service times with us
- Count children separately
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Ask about a second service later in the evening.
Where the truck can go in Overton

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

- Whether you need disposables
